What you get
Manual fallback / active-session estimate.
How to use the Live Step Counter
- Enter manual steps fallback, height, weight.

- Read the main result together with the supporting values, method, assumptions and limitations below before using the estimate.
How this calculation works
The live step counter is designed for an active browser session and permission-gated device motion, with a manual fallback when motion data is unavailable.
Example calculation
The sample values loaded into the calculator produce 0 steps. This example exists to show how the output is structured; replace the sample values with your own inputs for your calculation.
Assumptions and limitations
- Energy, fitness and heart-rate outputs are estimates and vary by individual and device.
- Stop exercise and seek appropriate care if you have concerning symptoms; this tool does not provide medical clearance.

Questions people ask about Live Step Counter
Can this count steps with the screen off or browser closed?
No. The browser pedometer is designed for an active page session. If motion permission is unavailable or denied, you can use the manual step field instead.
Are step-counter readings exact?
No. Browser motion sensors, phone position, gait and device filtering can affect counts. The live counter is a practical estimate, not a replacement for a calibrated wearable.
