My code is:
if ([CMPedometer isStepCountingAvailable]) {
self.pedometer = [[CMPedometer alloc] init];
}
else {
NSLog(@"Step counting is not available on this device!");
[SVProgressHUD showErrorWithStatus:@"Step counting is not available on this device!"];
}
When i run it on iOS8 and later devices, it says:
Step counting is not available on this device!
How can i make it available for step counting ?
Your code is correct and it yields the expected result. The iPhone 5 does not have the hardware (the Apple M7 chip) to track steps, so step counting is not available.
You need at least an iPhone 5s
The iPhone 4s, 5 and 5c do not have the M7 Motion Sensor co-processor so they will not record steps. The iPhone 5s, 6 and 6 Plus all have a motion co-processor.
