  • Stepz keeps me moving!

    I love how Stepz keeps me moving. I can see how far I need to go to reach my daily goal of 10,000 steps. It keeps a record of weekly, monthly and yearly steps too so I can see my track record and compare activity levels. The only drawbacks are the ads, which can be hard to click out of, and that you always have to keep your phone with you so that it adds up your steps accurately. These are minor issues that don’t bother me since I always have my phone on me anyway. As a senior citizen, I love that it’s free and is a helpful tool in my quest to stay active and healthy in my golden years. I used to have a Fitbit until it died. I don’t need it anymore. This app does the job!

  • Poor quality control, unaddressed flaws

    This app has a good basic design but its primary flaws haven't been addressed after years of weekly app updates. There's no dark mode long after most apps have added one. There are no options for modern control center or lock screen widgets. The number of steps is always higher than the amount displayed by Apple's own Health app or most other step counter apps. The app doesn't reset for the current day and shows inaccurate totals for every category, requiring me to force quit the app and relaunch it almost every morning. As I write this I can't actually use the app after the latest update because it shows "Please wait while we finish importing your history" and a progress bar that never ends. This happens at least once a week. Waiting five minutes and force quitting the app doesn't help. Deleting and reinstalling it hasn't helped either.

  • I PAY for this app, yet I still get ads when I open the app! Canceling!

    Isn’t the whole point of paying for an application so that you don’t have to deal with annoying and unwanted ads every time you open the application? I never had ads on this app before, yet all the sudden I’m getting bombarded with them every time I open the app now! I will be canceling! My subscription is still in tact so I’m not getting ads due to non payment. I refuse to pay to use an app only to have ads & commercials shoved down my throat…no thank you! I just want to open the app and see how many steps I have really quick, instead of having to patiently wait for these stupid commercials to play out! I can use a free app if I want ads, and save my money! Do not pay for this app unless you love paying money only to see the same repetitive ads. Smh

  • Once the best… now not so much

    I have used this app for about 6 years. It was the absolute best. I refreshed it lately and discovered the ads…. I get it, you want to get paid for a great app, but full page ads??!!? The app also takes longer to load and the location of the onscreen ads is not ideal. I looked at the premium price, and thats where you really lose your stars. $3.99 / week??? I would happily pay a one time charge of $10 for this app. Had I been subscribed for the 6 years I used it, I would have paid over $1,200 for this app. Thank you for 6 years of the best step counter ever, but now I need to go look for another one…. If you ever switch to a 1 time fee model without add I’ll come back.

  • Disappointed With Updates

    When the Stepz App was “updated” I lost data during the conversion. Now my Stepz App and Apple Health App are not synchronized (steps and mileage are different). Got the updated Stepz version, and I like the enhancements. Information is easy to use and readily available. However, the new version still doesn’t sync with Apple Health. I’m still enjoying the Stepz App. I’m still not sure which App is correct Stepz or Apple Health. I wish both had the same number of steps and miles. Trying to determine why I have 4,300 steps getting out of the bed this morning. I rebooted my app to reset it but it didn’t. Trying to determine my next action. Update on this app. It’s been very good since my last review.

    This app continues to provide good about my daily steps.

  • Works without thinking about it

    Four stars! (Five is reserved for the app which predicts the winning lottery number.)

    Following a recent heart attack I now monitor a number of health-related metrics routinely: weight, blood pressure, blood sugar, percent oxygen saturation, heart rate, EKG, … in addition to nutrition information.
    I wear my Apple Watch pretty much non-stop, except when charging. I don’t consciously keep track of my activity. I like that the watch app detects and asks whether I want to record activity as an outdoor walk, which often it is. Later, the data collected syncs with my phone and is aggregated with the other health data that I consciously track, for subsequent analysis.

  • What’s wrong with this app?

    What is up with this app? I have used this app for years and love it but the issues I’m currently having with it are making me reconsider. It used to be that the ads were simply annoying but now the app freezes when ads display and will not let me see step totals or track my daily progress. Typically it works (ads load then disappear after several seconds and the app reappears with updated info) early in the morning but as the day progresses, the ads cause the app to “freeze” and I can’t access my daily progress until the next day. I am on an iPhone using OS 15.3. I want to give this the 5 stars it deserves but not until the ad freeze is fixed.

  • Love it!

    This app is one of most used apps that I have on my IPhone. I track my steps every day. I walk my dog 3 times a day. Now I know how far we go daily and I can listen music and check in with my wife while walking. My wife also has this app on her IPhone and like me she has steps goals. We both like the ability to look at our history. Five stars for this app if I didn’t get all those ads. 😳
    Also, I had cancer surgery and it’s going to take 4-5 months to get close to where was.
    Anyway, this app gets 4 stars.

  • My tracking

    Actually I didn’t realize that my wife had put Stepz on my phone until one day I was strolling through it and saw the icon. I clicked on it and saw that it had been keeping up a log on me. Every since that moment I have been motivated to challenge myself to do more. I truly love this app. Dr. M Michael B McGuire a loyal user of Stepz Since I’m using Stepz now I’m more motivated to do more walking. I’m an 100% Disabled Vetnam Veteran and a few years ago I couldn’t even walk. Now I’m able too walk I’ve been loosing weight. I was 376 pounds now I am 298. Stepz is motivation for me to reach my goal of 200 pounds. Everyone needs the Stepz App . Dr. M Michael B McGuire a loyal user of Stepz

  • Great job!

    Since I started using your app I’ve lost the weight I was trying too lose. I was at almost 200 pounds and I set my mind too get down too my BMI of 165. I accomplished that goal in April when my doctor saw I was at 160. I told him I wanted too get now too 145 and he said no. He told me I was at my ideal weight. I still watch how many steps I walk every day with your app and at least I know I can keep track as too maintain a somewhat consistent schedule even though I still want too lose more weight. I like too challenge myself too walk those extra steps. I look at the app everyday and try too set goals too beat my previous steps from the day before. Now that I’m at my ideal weight at least I know I can stay persistent by keeping track of how many miles I’ve walked in one days time by looking at the app. Each day, marks a new beginning, a new challenge of trying too always do better too stay healthy. Don’t ever give up having this app. I don’t want too be buying a pedometer too wear on my belt.
