doubled my step count

this app single-handedly doubled my average step count. it's really cute, i love seeing my hamster on my home screen (the widget is the perfect nudge to walk more). the lines are sometimes darkly funny, and there are easter eggs like how the appearance of the hamster changes once you've hit your step goal for the week and how the hamster sometimes turns around or reacts with surprise.
