The iPhone6 model has also added a barometer, which can be used to monitor our current altitude.

It is based on a series of sensors built into the iPhone, which can be used to detect whether we are resting or exercising.

IPhone5s, iPhone6 and other models

Why say it first? What about models such as iPhone5s and iPhone6? This is because there are coprocessors on these machines, namely M7 and M8 processors. Its function is to record the data obtained by the sensor on the low-power mobile phone.

In addition, with the latest iOS8 system, we can check the number of steps we take in a day on the iPhone without other third-party software. In iOS8 system, there is a "health" function, where we can see the data we want to see.
three
In the Health Application, in Health Data, find the Fitness Data column, and then click Enter.
four
Then you can see the number of steps, frequency+distance, etc. After clicking enter, you can view the detailed data.
five
Here I take the number of steps as an example, and I can see the frequency of my walking now. In addition, it is suggested to check the option of "Show in Chart Summary", which can be viewed directly in the chart summary column in the future.
six
As shown below, I can see the frequency, distance and how many floors I climbed. For the current iPhone6 model, you can see the floor you climbed all day. If it's an iPhone5s, because there is no air pressure sensor, you can only see the number of steps and the distance.

IPhone4, iPhone4s and iPhone5.

If you are an iPhone4, iPhone4s, iPhone5 and other models, even the latest system can't see the data mentioned above in the health application because the machine has no coprocessor. Although the system does not support direct record display, we can realize it through some third-party application software. We can find some third-party health applications in the App Store, as shown in the figure below.
This three-party application software can also calculate the number of walks or runs by using the sensors and their algorithms that come with the iPhone.
Pedometer is a tool to measure calories or calorie consumption by calculating steps, distance, speed, time and other data, so as to control the amount of exercise and prevent insufficient or excessive exercise. At present, the mainstream in the market is to use 3D electronic pedometer. 3D is to feel the vibration of the human body in all directions, that is, you don't need to wear it vertically on the ground, just put it in your pocket and put it in your handbag to count the steps. Using more advanced electronic sensors, the step counting is more accurate and smaller. Some advanced 3D pedometers also have the functions of stopwatch, radio, MP3, flashlight, UV (ultraviolet test) and so on.
