# Pedometer Sensor

This event is triggered when the pedometer sensor reports a new value.

{% hint style="info" %}
The values of the sensor are stored in the variables specified in the call made to **SensorEnable** action.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
The step count is cumulative and managed by the O.S. If your app enables the pedometer sensor and the device goes into suspend/sleep state or the user opens another app, the O.S. will continue to count the steps, so when you get a step count it will be a cumulative value. Normally the first reading reported is the current step count, and after the O.S. will start providing new step count as the user takes steps.     
{% endhint %}
