Quantified Self

Recorded Using My Smartphone

Day 1-3: Was working on voice acting so I didn't have time to do much else.

Day 4: Lots of free time that day, so I decided to walk up to the grocery store to buy milk.

Day 5: Went out walking but quickly returned home due to it starting to rain, so I didn't go as far as day 4.

Keep in mind that my phone only recorded the steps I took when I had it with me in my pocket, so any steps that I took without it were not recorded.

I don't think the phone actually records my steps, but rather, the amount of times it is jostled around in my pocket, which it registers as the motion of a leg moving up and down. I can tell because it doesn't add steps when riding in vehicles like buses or trains.

I don't think this measurement changed me in any way.
