Step Counter
A heart rate monitor using phone's camera also included to help tracking the heart beat rate during your exercises. After calibrate at least for myself the heart beat rate is very accurate after 20 seconds.
This Step Counters is a Android application(Pedometer,Step Counter), which help you record your steps everyday every minutes. It can working all the time no matter the screen is on/off, and I try my best to reduce the battery usage. xStep released for about 6 months, and with several bug fix, now it works on majority phones, also I get quite many positive feedback. It also provide a tracking tool for BMI and baby's height/weight tracking(with line chart). Also these information will be keep online, so you will never lost these information.
It is developed on my spare time for my own usage, and finally I found this may useful for others.
With this application I know
How many steps per day?Do I reach my target 10,000 steps per day?Notify if no movement for 30 minutes.Show statistics per year/per month/per day.BMI trackingTracking calories burnedHeight/Weight tracking for baby..... It consume some battery, as it need keep the phone running all the time. Normally I have to recharge phone everyday. But I believe it worth.
Have fun!.

I hated that
This is a really good app,the only thing I don't like is it takes up a lot of space
I really loved thos app its tells me how much steps i have done and how much i brun calories
The amount of steps is inaccurate.
It is very useful for our health we can know the steps that's great
Its such a lie I asked from my room to the bathroom which is exactly 10 steps and it it went from 360 to 450 its so not accurate and such a lie
This is a really good app
Crashes on launching the app
I'm giving this 1 star. Despite all the glowing reviews I read before downloading this app I really don't think it's that great. It randomly freezes and the only way to fix it is to restart my phone. Most of all at least for my phone, I have a samsung android, it drains the battier every 6 to 8 hours. I don't have time to charge my phone twice a day.
Update: Well when I get up the acclerometer data looks like an earthquake, where as when I walk it's more like a heart beat.. anyhow, I'm going to capture some more acceleramoter data with a different tool and post back or email my findings. also the bit below still stands. Hi I just tried using the app and there are a few things: I walk quite fast (about 4mph) but it's saying my adv speed on a continuous walk is only 4km... so some way of autocallibrating, say via using GPS (just to do the calibration) is required really as I'm not taking a tape measure out on the street to work out my stride.
I walked quite a bit throughout the day running errands and it shows I have around 57000. Is that right? I think I may have my settings wrong. Anyway it does work even when screen is closed. It does use battery but you mentioned that in the download and it really isn't a problem for me. Thanks for your hard work!
Continues to run on task bar, even after pressing stop. Please fix.
Steps to distance is inaccurate. I just did a 5k (3.1 miles) this weekend. Walked in 50 mins. Today I walked for about an hour 6089 steps only registered 2.156 miles. Steps to miles converter measures 2.883 miles.
I really like this app, its easy to use and good UI but I have it set to NOT auto start on powerup, and it continues to auto start. Frustrating, because my phone usually shuts off due to low battery and doesn't charge as well with apps running. I'd still recommend it, just don't use it much right now.
Worked great and enjoyed the walk with my dog. Finally , I know the distance of my walking route. Great work out, too..
Yep its really great I loved it, its efficient & smart It senses when driving not walking ;)
Stops working when the screen goes blank which means you can't put it in your pocket and go you have to keep messing with your phone to keep the screen on
Tried all different settings including defaults ... Accuracy is + or - 500%
I wanted an app that was simple to use and frugal with the battery. I tried perhaps 6 other "best" pedometer apps before settling on this one. This is IT foe me!
Every single tine I opened it, I had to press force close... Not at all pleased... I would.like to test this app so please fix.
It was great to have the motivation to keep walking!
It really counts your steps
"Are you really want to quit"? Are u serious!?
Love this app...
This is a useless app that doses not work
