You cannot (probably). Android applications' security bases on isolation of data. So one app can't access some other app's data, unless it's not directly shared using ContentProvider component. As far as I see - there is no Runtastic API that allows to count such data.

However, good news are: there is an Android API that allows you to count user's steps. You can start with this Android 4.4 Step Detector and Counter question.

  • is it possible to access data from Samsung's S health app as they provide SDK for developers also it is an in-built app. – musica Dec 01 '16 at 06:04
