Not a fan of S Health because it's reporting views are pretty poor. If you want to record nutrition, you can really only view calorie intake, not actual nutrition (eg. sugar, carbs, protein, etc). I prefer to have a central hub for fitness information and was using MFP when I was wearing my Fitbit because it integrates with Fitbit, Endomondo, etc. I played around with S Health SDK and data viewer to see if I could code a plugin to view that data in S Health, but no go (and no Strava or Endomondo integration anyway). Not interested in Lifesum and the need to buy a premium subscription to make it remotely useful.
Finally, I figured out a way of getting S2 step count data into MFP (and therefore facilitating integration with Endomond, Strava, etc) and probably Fitbit as well.
It's kludgy, but it works:
In theory, Google Fit shouldn't be necessary as MFP claims to support Withings integration. I have not been able to get that to work because I think it requires an actual Withings device. Since MFP has the widest scope of integration, you should then be able to use your S2 step count with the long list of MFP compatible apps and devices including Strava, Endomondo, UA Record, etc.
Mods, I know I started a new thread for this and there are others complaining about lack of integration ... wanted to put the solution in one place for reference. If it should be somewhere else, please move it.

It's kludgy, but it works:
- Install Withings HealthMate.
- Open S Health and under More/Settings/Data Permissions, turn on Withings and enable Step Count. Withings will now read and record your S2 Step Count from S Health.
- Install Google Fit.
- Scroll down to Connected Apps and Goolge Fit Apps & Devices, connect Withings to Google Fit. Gootle Fit can now read and record your step count from Withings.
- Install MyFitnessPal and then scroll to Steps. Under Steps, select "Android" as your device and MFP will now read Step count from Google Fit.
