[QUOTE="spock999, post: 1798203, member: 302396"] Just bought an iPhone SE and was checking the distance walked via the Health App and using MapMyWalk. There is quite a difference! MapMyWalk which uses GPS gave the distance as 2.6 miles while the Health App gave the distance as 2.2 miles. I have read that the Health App does a calculation based upon the steps and the built in accelerometer. It's quite a difference. I would expect the GPS system to be most accurate but I wondered if anyone else had experience of this sort of thing. Thanks [/QUOTE]
