Pedometer didn't work in the background

[EricPang]

Hi Community,
Is there any method or extension that can make Pedometer keeps counting even when screen off or in background mode ?
I really know how to use such "keep screen on' methods, but I want to keep screen off.
Anyway, I already have TaiFung Tools and Alarms extensions.
Thanks for any helps !
