Automatic Tracking Manual Tracking Activities that Count

Synch directly with your wearable device or your smartphone’s health app to allow for seamless, automatic input of your steps data.

In Sharecare, select Track, then select Steps to record the number of steps you’ve taken. Use the following steps conversion chart to convert your activities into steps. If you forget to track your steps for a day, you can track up to one week of missed steps, up to 7 days after the challenge ends.

 

Walking is just one way to count steps. You can convert almost any activity into steps – like swimming, gardening, vacuuming, playing with grandkids, or taking a SilverSneakers® exercise class.

You may use the following steps conversion chart to calculate your steps for different activities:
