The Health app uses your iPhone’s accelerometer to measure steps and distance traveled, so long as you keep your iPhone with you to get accurate figures. That is, you don’t need to wear a tracker to get step or distance data.

There is no calculation for steps based on the actual bike ride. If steps are more important to you than heart rate, you may try attaching your Fitbit to your shoe/ankle instead of your wrist.
Is Apple Watch accurate for indoor cycling?
One advantage of tracking an indoor cycling activity on the Apple Watch is that it has a plethora data that you provide and sensors including your heart rate.

How to track stationary bike activity with the Apple Watch?
I would get either Strava app or CycleMeter (or RunMeter – they are the same except for the icon) if you don’t want to get an Apple Watch and do want your information on your device. They all have the concept of “indoor workout” so that they can record a workout.

To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question. Doc informed me I need to buy an exercise bike to help get me off heart & BP pills. What Upright Exercise bikes, bluetooth, works with my apple Health App, Watch, iphone?? — IF YOU OWN a bike that works with the apps, PLEASE TELL ME!!
Why does my Apple Watch not recognize my exercise bike?
It has no idea when I’m on the exercise bike, and in fact is crediting me with steps instead. This seems very odd since years ago Apple publicly claimed that the Health app would automatically know the difference between walking, cycling, etc. and track accordingly.
