It has some useful features:

Timer system is very active and automatically stops when you stop walking and doesn’t  matter where you keep your iPhone whether  in a pocket, on a belt or on the hand.

Its display automatically disabled when iphone is in the pocket, but Pedometer won’t stop working, even it continues and saves device’s battery.

The additional feature is that pedometer can calculate the number of calories burned during movement. It supports metric and English units.

At last, I would say the pedometer is perfect for any type of walking and jogging.
