step counts with shealth inaccurate, when in a vehicle.

[Shreehari]

I have switched on step counts, it seems very good. But when I'm in bus or vehicle it counts steps even if the phone is relatively stationary

But the phone is moving relative t0 the ground, this is how GPS works

Thanks for sharing your concern. Please try the following:
- If you are indoors, go outside and find a wide open area.
- If you are using a Samsung device running Android 6.0 or a non-Samsung device running Android 5.1 or above, go to Apps > Settings > Battery > Power Saving Mode, and check if it is ON. When your device turns off the screen in Power Saving Mode, Samsung Health cannot access your GPS data, and may display inaccurate workout data as a result.

the sleep time is calculated based on the handset been kept idle. say I kept idle from 10.00pm later slept at 10.45pm woke up at 6.30am, lifted handset at 7.00am it shows sleeping time 10.00pm to 7.00am. this is wrongly calculated. It shows wrong time. How to rectify this....
