Core: pedometer / step tracker feature#71

Add a pedometer app to Core for tracking steps. I’d wear it 24/7 if it tracked my steps!

This would be amazing!!!

This would be useful.

I designed a concept how this could happen. Basically you would sync the data generated by our wearables to Apple Health and in there are all the charts and analytics you would want. Hopefully Google would offer a similar solution (haven’t researched this yet). This would allow us to keep it simple and focus most of our attention on music-related features, but still able to support step tracking for our wearables

If this happens, would it be likely to integrate with Strava and other apps too?

Hello, we are currently working on this and have a working prototype although still a lot of work needs to be done. Right now it can track steps but not sync to our mobile app yet.

I believe Strava can access data from Apple Health, so yes it would integrate with that. On Android side, we would likely integrate it with Google Health which is exclusive to Android 14, but probably Strava supports that now too, or would eventually support it since it’s only brand new (I didnt check Strava’s Google support so just a guess)

Could this get added to the core 1 too? or would it just be for core 2?

It will be only for Core 2

do you have an ETA for this feature to be added to Core 2?

Yes, we are very deep in the development process already and are currently beta testing the algorithm and refining it. We already finished integrations with Google Fit and Apple Health as well for syncing the data to them. Overall my hope would be we can launch the necessary iOS, Android and firmware updates within May
