Methods

Method name Description Parameters
reset Resets the step counter, distance measure and time running.
pedometerName.reset()
save Saves the pedometer state to the phone. Permits permits accumulation of steps and distance between invocations of an App that uses the pedometer. Different Apps will have their own saved state.
pedometerName.save()
start Starts the pedometer.
pedometerName.start()
stop Stops the pedometer.
pedometerName.stop()
addEventListener Method used to create event listeners.
See Events below for samples.
eventName string
eventCallbackFunction callback

Events

Event name Description Parameters
simpleStep This event is run when a raw step is detected.
pedometerName.addEventListener(
    "simpleStep",
    function (simpleSteps, distance) {
        //Your code here
    }
)
simpleSteps number
distance number
walkStep This event is run when a walking step is detected. A walking step is a step that appears to be involved in forward motion.
pedometerName.addEventListener(
    "walkStep",
    function (walkSteps, distance) {
        //Your code here
    }
)
walkSteps number
distance number
