  • Progress! Progress!! Progress!!!

    It’s simple. Keeps track of what we don’t—basic exercise that explains why we’re so tired, what kind of progress we’re making, or how we need to step it up. Our health is our everything, so this tracker is fantastic keeping track of me and it’s so simple how can you go wrong? Try it. It’s free. It’s carefree. It points to what you are doing or not, so you can adjust your lifestyle.

  • Activity Tracker

    Is the Most Detailed Pedometer tracking App I’ve come across since I’ve had my Phone.

    I have and use others such as FitBit which is On my Phone but is for my moms Watch. Because at the time she had an IPhone 4 and it wouldn’t accommodate it. There is also the Apple Health app that will track your Steps/Activity & My Fitness Pal which is a Diet & Activity Tracker. Wish it had more Flexibility as for Tracking Food intake ( Caliries )

  • Doesn’t work, don’t buy

    As the last couple of reviews state, doesn’t update counts properly on watch or phone. Restarting watch does not solve it (poor response by developer). Paid $5. iTunes will not refund, get instant denial so developer must have zero refund policy regardless of them saying in here to request refund. Don’t buy. Doesn’t work. Counts don’t update on watch, and phone count stays the same for days on end unless you open app and then it may update but most cases still doesn’t match what watch says. Sync on and background updates on. Turn sync off is another response by developer. Why would you do that? You want them to sync! Developer needs to TEST his product!

  • Good idea, app is 100% ineffective though

    Bought this app solely so I had a complication on my Apple watch that accurately told me the number of steps I had taken that day.. unfortunately this app claims to do that and fails. The # of steps the watch complication shows is totally different from the #of steps it shows once you actually open the app on the watch, which is also different from the #of steps taken shown on the phone app itself. Which # is accurate? Why are the #’s different at all? I’m not sure why, but one thing I am sure of, I wasted $4.99 buying this ineffective app that DOES NOT do what it claims

  • Great app

    Got an Apple Watch to replace my Garmin Vivosmart HR. I’m used to really keeping track of my steps, and Apple’s Activities app just didn’t show the data the way I wanted and was used to. ActivityTracker gives me exactly what I am used to from the Garmin app, but with better graphics and more flexible parameters. It’s worth the $4.99 one-time fee (hooray - no subscription!) to integrate it fully with the Apple Watch. Very happy with this app - recommend it wholeheartedly!

  • Love the visual motivation

    I really like the badge that displays my steps as it keeps me motivated throughout the day. I have noticed, however, a large discrepancy is calories burned in the app vs linking the native apple health app to MyFitnessPal. I’m not sure what the reason is for this. MyFitnessPal says I burned 80 calories and this app shows 234 calories. I definitely feel the 234 is more accurate as I did a 45 minute cardio workout this morning so there must be something off with MyFitnessPal.

  • Does a pretty good job. Needs just a tweak or two

    I like that this app does not lie to you about how many Calories you have burned with your steps. Most of the others vastly overstate that, and this seems to be much more realistic. It was very easy to enter my information and get it ready to go. It seems to capture the steps very well, and I like the Apple Watch functionality. My only issue, and the reason I did four and not five stars is how long it takes to update your step count. Sometimes it is 5-10 minutes before it all shows up, and it takes a while to show up on the watch correctly. But in the end I recommend this application

    Thank you for your feedback. We are working to update steps more often in Sync Watch and Health mode. However if you disable the Sync mode the steps will be updated in real time.
  • Apple Watch issues

    So the app seems to work fine on the phone, but the app barely seems to work on the Apple Watch. Step counts and info are not being updated in the watch, and the complications do not seem to work at all for some reason.

    *Update* app suddenly started working on the watch and now I’ll continue to use to see how I feel about it in a few weeks.

  • Michael in PA

    This app is more accurate than the Apple health app that came with my iPhone. It records steps and distance instantly. I am very pleased with it.
    I have just two issues. The app doesn’t allow for manual additions, (the one advantage of the Apple health app), which is needed to account for activity when you are not carrying the phone. Secondly, for some reason it sometimes does not record the stairs from my basement to the first floor and sometimes it does.
    However, in summary, I have tried several activity apps and this one is the best!!

    Thank you for your feedback. If you have upgraded to PRO and activate in Settings > Sync Watch and Health, ActivityTracker will read the steps from Apple Health so you can add steps manually in the Health app and they will appear in ActivityTracker. Regarding floors climbed, unfortunately the floors reported by the motion processor in your iPhone are not always 100% accurate.
  • Good replacement for Stepz, but couple of annoyances

    Ever since Stepz forced their most recent upgrade on everyone and it lost 3 years of my past data with it (and reimported it highly-inflated from Health app), I have been looking for a better replacement.

    So far this has been solid and the best option. I like the design of the widget, and overall the app works really well. A bit slow to report new steps to the widget or badge icon, but does catch up.

    Two minor annoyances:
    1) I wish there was a toggle setting to turn off all of the animations. Kind of annoying to have to wait for the big circle to fill in to see your steps for the day—especially if you just want to look at quickly, and do it multiple times a day. It is cool the first 10x, but gets old quick. Give me the option to just show the numbers, especially when scrolling in your history.

    2) Wish there was a roll-up for a monthly and annual steps/distance. Nice to look back and compare year over year totals.
