If you have an Apple Health profile, every step you take will be recorded on your iPhone. If you don't want it to be stored on your iPhone, it can prevent your iPhone from collecting it in the first place. That's how.
First, open Settings on your iPhone.
In Settings, select “Privacy”.
On “Privacy”, touches “Movement and fitness”.
On “Movement and fitness”, I searched “Health” en el listado y apague el interruptor que se encuentra al lado. (If you don't have any other applications that use Motion data & Fitness, “Health” será la única aplicación en el listado). This setting prevents Apple's Health app from accessing your motion sensor data.
If you are not using any other application that needs Motion and Fitness data to function properly, además puede desactivar el interruptor “Fitness Tracking”. With “Physical activity tracking” disabled, no app will be able to access your iPhone's motion sensor data. Exit Settings and you're done.

How to Delete Steps Data from Your iPhone
Even if you just disabled fitness tracking or disabled the Health app's ability to receive movement and fitness data, the Health app will likely still contain data on your activity levels over time. Here's how to explain that.
First, open the Health app. In the page “Summary” of health, look for the section “Steps” and touch it. It can be in different places on your screen depending on whether you have used other Health functions or not.
Next, desplácese hacia abajo hasta la parte inferior de la pantalla “Steps” and select “Show all data”.
Next, verá una lista de todos los datos de “Steps” registrados en su iPhone a lo largo del tiempo. It can extend quite far back! Touch “Edit” in the upper right corner.
You will enter an edit screen where you can remove data from certain days if you wish., but you can also remove all the data at the same time. To do it, Touch “Erase everything” in the upper left corner of the screen.
After confirming the deletion, Health will delete all recorded step data. Si ha desactivado el acceso de Health al “Physical activity tracking” (see previous section), Health will no longer collect data and your physical activity log has now been emptied into the history trash.
There are other steps you can take to make sure your activities stay private on an iPhone., how to disable Location Services. Even if some tracking functions of the iPhone do not pose a threat to your well-being, always good to know more about how your iPhone controls your movement or location. Stay safe out there!
