Galaxy S7 S Health: How To Disable Pedometer

The Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge has feature that users can use part of S Health called pedometer. This pedometer app on S health allows you to keep track and reach your goal of daily steps walked. The way that the pedometer works is that it uses a motion sensor that is integrated in the smartphone.

The sensor counts the steps without great energy consumption. If you don’t want to use the pedometer and save battery, we’ll explain how to disable the S health pedometer on your Galaxy S7 or Galaxy S7 Edge.
