Motion and Fitness permission

Enable steps and movement signals where supported.

Motion & Fitness or physical-activity permission helps Tam interpret whether the phone is moving and supports steps, cadence, and related activity metrics. Denying it may reduce or delay those metrics without always stopping GPS recording, so a route can exist while moving time or steps look incomplete. Keep the phone with you during the activity because permission cannot infer movement from a phone left behind or heavily isolated in a bag.

What to do

  1. Open device privacy settings.
  2. Enable Motion & Fitness or physical-activity access.
  3. Record a short test with the phone on you and check steps and moving time.
