The iPhone's M7 processor (specifically its step counting): any way at all to calibrate it?

1 Answer

Answer :

I can’t answer this, but if it were me I’d ask the question on the London Hackspace mailing list here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/london-hack-space . They’ve got a festival on Friday so maybe nobody answers for the next week and a half, but certainly someone will have some decent input during normal times.
