As the system gathers information using various sensors on a device, SensorKit enables an app to access select raw data, or metrics that the system processes from a sensor, such as:

  • Steps information

  • Accelerometer or rotation-rate data

  • The configuration of a watch on the user’s wrist

  • Ambient light in the physical environment

  • Details about a user’s routine commute or travel

See SRSensor for the complete list.
