I'm interested in a wearable step-counter that doesn't come with privacy issues. Step-counting could be done entirely locally, without even needing a smartphone. Do any of you know of one that works? What's your experience been?

an old-school pedometer. completely analog. 路 6 months ago
The PineTime (as well as a number of non-smart digital watches) has a built-in pedometer. I'm not sure how accurate it is, but it does the trick if you just want an idea of how many steps you've done. 路 6 months ago
hackish projects like this sound fun, but I don't have the time :( 路 6 months ago
Thanks for the suggestions so far. I don't mind transcribing a number of steps manually, or simply glancing at the number at mealtimes to see if I'm hitting a self-imposed metric. Uploading all that to the cloud seems like overengineering. 路 6 months ago
No, but reporting is the key. You want to keep track of your records automatically? Sadly proprietary devices coupled with "cloud" bs are far ahead and keeping a server for that is a maintenance pain. But it can be a nice hackish project. 路 7 months ago
