Best Tracking App

If it wasn’t for this app, I would not be getting my steps in. I love how it tracks it and you can add friends to hold each other accountable. It’s like a friendly competition that helps you stay consistent with your goals.

Motivation!

My family & I use Social Steps for accountability & competition. It makes it fun getting our steps in.

Please add a lockscreen widget

Great app. Can you please add a widget?

Can’t log in

Both my husband and I got logged out of our accounts and couldn’t get back in. I don’t remember how it lets you sign up, but it says my email address isn’t on file. It was the same with him. We are both IT people, so it’s not like we are idiots. He signed up for a new account, but I opted not to be bothered with an app that is so lousy that it can’t help you log back in without setting up a new account. I just deleted the app.

Response from developer

Got it. Here’s a version without any promise: Sorry for the frustrating experience, that’s not how it should be. If you had contacted support, I could have helped recover the account or look into what went wrong.

Excellent dupe for Fitbit challenges on iPhone!

Our group is loving this app do those of us that have Apple Watches. The one person with the Garmin is having issues. Super simple to use. I do wish there was a widget as well as alerts when someone has taken the lead, getting close to you, etc.. I have all my notifications on but haven’t seen one come through, so not sure what the notifications are? The best part about the Fitbit was that step challenges, am this app is closest thing I can find to it! Thanks!!

This app is always making me restart and then loses track of my steps.
Very frustrating!!!!!

Great App

This app all my family has it and we motivate each other ! love this app ! makes us do extra steps to get first place

Unable to add friends

I keep getting an error that says “The subscription is unavailable in the current storefront.”

Useless

This app does not accurately track step count. It’s synced to my watch and it’s thousands of steps off.

So far great

Wishing I can send this to my Samsung Friends ! Would be a great app for all phones.

Love it!

I use this app daily to keep track of
my steps and to compare it with my friends and family. It helps us bond, and it’s fun to challenge my friends to see who can get more steps. I would highly recommend it to others

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m really glad to hear the app helps you stay active and connect with friends and family, that’s exactly what I hoped it would do. If you ever have ideas or suggestions to make it even better, I’d love to hear them. Thanks again for your support!

Love this app!

I love this app and have used it for years to compare steps with my friends. It’s great!

Hayley Powell

PLS ADD WIDGET

My friends and I love the concepts!! I’d love to see how this expands and if really like to see a widget for it as well!

FUN

Loveee

Steps

good app one issue you have to have your phone or watch on at all time to have steps accumulated even when adding data in health app and importing it into the app it won’t load the steps.

Best free app for family competition

This is the best free app I’ve found that’s simple enough for the whole family to use. Some recommendations that would make it even better:

1. Last updated info - would like to see the timestamp for when a friend has last updated their steps by opening the app.
2. Alerts - optional alerts when a friend has passed you in steps
3. Manual adjustment calc - this may be a bit niche but my family has a mix of Apple Watches and Fitbits. Fitbits give 30% more steps than Apple Watches (we have tested on multiple occasions), would love to be able to manually adjust steps to compensate.

My Health

Thanks so much for this app. It motivates me to keep up with my friends as they work out with me. What a wonderful way to keep up with our progress !!!!!👌🏾

Best UI for tracking daily/weekly steps with friends

I have been using with close group of friends for over year. The user interface is simple and efficient, no clutter like other setup apps it’s called “Social Steps “ for the right reason and does exactly as it’s labeled! Chapeau and thanks for making this app!
