Description

In Android, it is possible to count steps without a background service and still be able to differentiate between days/hours/minutes. This is much more energy-efficient than using the `SensorManager` directly. It would therefore make sense to support the Recording API in this plugin.

A big problem with this plugin is that you always have to count the steps yourself with Foreground services or in the background. You don't have this problem if you use the Recording API.
