### 2/5 — Marginal, at best.

*2026-08-23, version 1.1.70*

I walk every day, but it doesn't work every day. Some days there is no recording of steps, like for a whole week or more no steps counted. I gave it a two star, but it really deserves zero star.

### 5/5 — Beware

*2026-08-14, version 1.1.69*

After using this App for years, suddenly, porn appears as a banner on the bottom of the screen. Either they were hacked or permitting this, I had to delete the App.

### 5/5 — Great app

Me keep checking my steps

Best walking app by far, I recommend to everyone.

### 3/5 — Not accurate!

*2026-08-10, version 1.1.69*

I walk the same route every day at oretty much the same oace and get different stats every day. I get that the steps # could be different with a change of stride but how can the mileage change?  Makes me believe that nothing is accurate so why use it?

### 5/5 — New user

*2026-08-09, version 1.1.69*

As someone who doesn’t exercise, I’m enjoying seeing how many steps I get in my day. I only downloaded the app a couple of days ago and I love how easy it is to be aware of my movements for the day

### 5/5 — Yes, it’s free

*2026-08-08, version 1.1.69*

An actual app that I can use for free other things you can pay for it probably but I don’t need them and it works great

### 1/5 — Great Tool…But…Advertising Horrible Sexual Content.

*2026-08-26, version 1.1.71*

I’m disconnecting this app.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2026-08-16, version 1.1.69*

The mph varies wildly. I walk 3 mph on my treadmill. This app will show anything from 2.5-6 mph. Not helpful because then steps and mileage are off.

### 1/5 — Mauvais

*2026-08-06, version 1.1.69*

Aucun moyen de le mettre en pause, alors tous déplacement en voiture enregistre vos pas sans que vous n’ayez bouger la moindre orteil. Je ne recommande pas

### 1/5 — Отвратитетельно

*2026-08-02*

Отвратительное приложение!!! Постоянно останавливается потому что видите ли хочет переключиться на энергосберегающий режим! Какого черта!!! Я уже три раза отказалась от этого, с какого черта оно само решает в рандомный момент остановиться?!?!?

### 1/5 — Dead

### 1/5 — So bad and inaccurate

*2026-07-25, version 1.1.67*

This app is so bad and inaccurate. You take 50 steps and it doesn’t register a single step but the. Next day you walk the exact same distance as you did the day before and it says you did 10,000 steps

### 1/5 — Poor

*2026-07-20, version 1.1.67*

Used for a year and it has missed weeks of data… it just doesn’t seem to have recorded any steps periodically over a number of months…. The worst time it didn’t record any steps for nearly a month… I’m going to download a new step counter!

### 1/5 — Shows scam ads

*2026-07-14, version 1.1.66*

From time to time I get a scam ad, covering the whole page, e.g. ‘ Your Google Translate has expired’. Merely a scam to collect personal data.

### 1/5 — It’s horrible

*2026-07-10, version 1.1.66*

Doesn’t track steps correctly.  ADs popping up.

### 1/5 — Not reliable

*2026-07-03, version 1.1.65*

This app is not reliable I work a 12 hours and it’s only registers three hours or less and I’m walking 90% of the time.
