step counter

Walking activity monitor

A step counter is a device that tracks the number of steps a person takes, used to monitor physical activity and encourage movement.

Traditional pedometers clip to clothing and detect hip motion; modern step counters are built into smartphones and fitness trackers using accelerometers.

My step counter says I've hit ten thousand steps today.
