Activity Tracker Pedometer review & suggestion.
Very useful application. I had major back surgery a short time ago and need to walk about 250 steps per hour during the day. This app is quite helpful in tracking my steps. Occasionally the steps do not register on my step counter. It would be great if I could add the steps the application misses for one reason of the other. Otherwise, this is a colorful, easy to read and well thought thru step counter.Show lessAssfjkl1234
Stopped working
Months ago, this app seemed to be working ok. Then, I was surprised by the results, often showing way less time, way less steps I took and smaller distance I walked. I finally updated to pro hoping it would take care of these errors. The results are even worst, I still have ads at bottom of page... I don’t know why I though paying more money for it would actually fix the app.Show lessdeathrowjuliet
Incorrect mileage counts
Now we walk 9 miles a day and I’ve had to “ tweak “ the step length several times. It just starts tracking fairly well then it will lose a mile or more on the same trails we do every morning.
So even implementing your suggested “ fix” does not work all that well. As stated in original rating below it barely counts the back now 2 miles of trails and there is a very strong cell signal there so that’s not it either. I would have to take the step length up to 48 or so get a reading so I’ll just “ guesstimate “ until I find more accurate system.
I’m so sorry I paid $4 for this app!
I walk pretty much the same 3.7 mile walk every morning with my dog. The only time it varies is when we add the last part of trails on so more steps NOT FEWER!
Every 2-4 days this app screws me out of 1-2 miles!
Since it’s pretty much same morning walk I don’t get it! Even parked my car at last part that it NEVER counts more than .3 miles and started walking 1.2 miles by its self!
Did that walk today with regular walk all it registered was 2.7 miles!
Looking for more accurate app. Need CORRECT info for ortho doc.
Reply to developers:
I already tried the custom step settings.
This app seems to have MAJOR issues with any type of non flat terrain.Show lessScout 2009

Thank you for using ActivityTracker. Please note that ActivityTracker tries to estimate your Step Length from your Height (set in Settings > User Profile). But you can also set a custom Step Length (in Settings > User Profile) so that it matches your distance. Please let me know if this solves your problem.Wonderful!
In striving to reach any goal tracking your progress quickly and easily is essential. If this can be accomplished in conjunction with appealing graphics, so much the better. This app has such appealing graphics it’s really fun to use! I’ve used it for only a few days but it makes staying on track almost like a game and I find myself actually looking forward to adding more strides to my day in an effort to reach my goal.

L’il Bits to Fix over Coffee
The app looks great and gives a nice history, but fails to count steps if you don’t walk very far. I vacuumed the house to the tune of 0 additional steps. Also, I paid for the pro version because I thought it would sync with my watch, a Fit Bit Blaze. Apparently, you need an Apple Watch for sync to be effective 😐. Overall, if you never set your phone down and walk away from it AND you walk far enough for the app to recognize your effort to create a greater step count, you’ll enjoy this app. It knows exactly when I get in bed and when I get out of bed, assuming I picked up the phone when I woke. There were instances of 13 hours of sleep counted on days that I didn’t use my phone as an alarm and went about my day. It’s not perfect, but this app has a lot of promise with just a few glitches to muddle through.Show lessPagesWritten

Thank you for your feedback. In “Sync Watch and Health” mode the step count will update with a few minutes delay since it reads the data from the Health app. Otherwise you should see the same data as the Health app. We do advertise that ActivityTracker sincronizes with Apple Watch but not with other smart watches.ActivityTracker
I like this app but it doesn’t track stairs every time and when I downloaded it to my husband’s phone I saw that it shows his steps on his home screen but it doesn’t on my phone. I would appreciate that on my phone. I dislike having my phone in my pocket all the time.
The graphics are great. I am impressed by what it can do. Highly recommended.Show lessKathyConnolly
Interface is beautiful, flawed accuracy
I thought I found exactly what I wanted. I’ve been using it over the past 5 days. When it works, I love it! However, I noticed it sometimes drops the data from the previous day, it doesn’t always count all the steps. I was very active yesterday and should have logged over 20,000 steps...I had 13,000 by mid-day. I continued to be active and at the end of the day only registered 16,000 steps. I don’t feel like waiting for this to be fixed.Show lessSannycat

I love the Activity Tracker app. It shows all the info I’m looking for for my progress. I would and recommend it to everyone.
I would like to see an option to change or update the data. In a future update for this reason. I deleted some data from my iPhone by myself stake. That I would like in Activity Tracker that I don’t know how to get back.
I did write them down so have info just don’t see where I can add it into Activity Tracker.Show lessWaynep207
Does not show stairs climbed on Apple Watch
I purchased this app and paid to unlock pro features for more money but it does not display stairs climbed on the Apple Watch, only shows them in the phone app. If stairs climbed is added to the Watch display I would increase my rating to 5 stars.
Update with response to developer:
Yes even though the phone is doing the stair counting, I would still want to see this data on the watch as it’s much more convenient to see at a glance rather than taking phone out of pocket etc.
Adding one star for quick developer responseShow lessScratchDiver
Sometimes doesn't count flights of stairs
Below is a previous technical issue which the developer fixed. Hoping there's a fix to this one too!
I've been using this app for a couple months now with good results, but more recently have been finding that on and off it doesn't count my flights. I just walked up 6 flights of stairs and it says 0. My phone is on low power mode but I don't think that should make a difference. Hoping for a fix! Thanks.
Past issue:
I am having the same issue as others. I just downloaded & installed it, enabled everything. It sits there with the logo in the background as an open app but when I actually open it it just closes away back to the background. Tried reinstalling. Hope it gets fixed so I can use it!
Update: Thanks to the developer for a prompt response! I had already tried that but did it again and now it works! Yay! If you're someone who had the same problem, try deleting and reinstalling and it may now actually work.Show lessMaven802

Update: Thank you for using ActivityTracker. The app reads the flights of stairs climbed from the motion processor in your iPhone, it's the same data displayed by the Health app. The motion processor does not record the flights of stairs climbed in real-time, sometimes it takes a few hours for the data to show-up so let us know if after a few hours you see the correct number. Previous: Thank you for your feedback. Just delete the app from your iPhone and then reinstall it. You will be able to import your entire history from Apple Health so no data should be lost. Please let us know how this works for you.
