Exercise API

[danisaiz14]

Hi, I was wondering if there was a possibility to measure stats like speed or distance using the Exercise API without having to use the GPS. I was trying some simple examples and all I get using exercise.stats.speed.current is 0. Is there a better possibility to measure speed? Maybe using accelerometer data... Thank you.

If you're doing a step based activity, then it should work without GPS.

exercise.start("run", { gps: false });
