About

Every step you take writes a new page in a 200-year-old story. Footscroll turns your daily walk into the legendary journey of Ino Tadataka — the Edo-period cartographer who spent 17 years walking Japan's entire coastline to create the nation's first accurate map. ■ Ino Tadataka's Dream Your steps fuel a tiny surveyor's progress along Japan's 40,000 km coastline. Watch him walk across Honshu, Hokkaido, Shikoku, Kyushu, and beyond — all rendered on aged washi paper with sumi ink, just like the original Ino maps. The further you walk in real life, the more of Japan unfolds before you. ■ Charts That Tell a Story Track your steps across four time scales — day, week, month, and year. A prediction bar shows whether you're on pace to hit today's goal. A heatmap calendar paints your active days in shades of green. ■ Gold Leaf Celebration Hit your daily goal and gold leaf drifts across the screen — a quiet, beautiful moment of celebration. Your consecutive streak is tracked too, keeping you motivated day after day. ■ Washi, Sumi, Indigo This isn't just another step counter. Footscroll is crafted with the aesthetics of traditional Japanese art: washi paper textures, sumi ink coastlines, indigo ocean gradients, and old province names written in classical vertical script. Every screen feels like holding a piece of Edo-era cartography. ■ Your Data Stays Yours Steps are read from Apple Health. Everything is stored on your device. Nothing leaves your phone. Ever. Key features: • Step ring with daily goal tracking • Ino Tadataka's Dream — coastline survey mode • Day / week / month / year step charts • Step heatmap calendar • Pace comparison vs. yesterday • Consecutive goal streak • Gold leaf celebration animation • Japanese & English
