## What is Step Tracker?

Turn your daily steps into a real adventure!
Steps & Beasts motivates you to walk more by turning every step into progress on your very own Journey — hatching eggs, collecting Beasts, and unlocking a whole world along the way.

WHY STEPS & BEASTS?
Every morning starts with a new egg. Walk toward your step goal and watch it hatch into a unique Beast. At the same time, your character moves forward on the Journey — a real path that grows with your steps, taking you through new biomes, landmarks, and levels.

FEATURES YOU'LL LOVE:

Every step carries your character down a living path. Explore distinct biomes, reach landmarks, open treasure chests, and level up as your total steps add up.

• COLLECT 250+ UNIQUE BEASTS
Hatch a new Beast every time you reach your goal. Hatch the same Beast again and again to unlock shiny Gold and Glitter looks.

• QUESTS, XP & FEATHERS
Complete quests along the Journey to earn XP and Feathers, then spend Feathers in the Shop on new looks for your character.

• DAILY STREAK REWARDS
Keep your streak alive to unlock rarer and more legendary Beasts.

• DETAILED STATISTICS
Track your daily steps, distance, calories, and 7-day averages — plus motivating charts and comparisons.

• WIDGETS THAT MOTIVATE
Watch your egg evolve as you move — right from your iPhone home screen or Lock Screen.

• APPLE WATCH & APPLE HEALTH
Steps are tracked automatically from your iPhone, Apple Watch, or any Apple Health‑compatible wearable.

### 5/5 — Love!

*2026-09-02*

I haven’t really played the app yet, but I had an issue when I first downloaded and subscribed, and Malte was very quick to diagnose and fix the issue! He’s a solo developer and this app is such a labor of love for them. If you have any issues, be sure to email them so they are aware. This kind of response to feedback makes me love this cute little app even more. 💜

### 5/5 — Perfekt für die Streaks!

*2026-08-24*

Tolle Gamification um die Schritte zu zählen und Konsistenz zu bekommen um das Ziel und die Streak vom Schrittzähler aufrecht zu erhalten

### 5/5 — Great Motivation

*2026-08-21*

I was using a different app to keep me going with my steps and little fun rewards however I kept having to buy coins for it and I spent way too much. Then I found this, so much less and it’s fun, cute and keeps me going.

### 4/5 — Satisfying

*2026-08-13*

I am thoroughly enjoying the hatching/collecting mechanic. I do think that there needs to be more buying options then clothes (hair, accessories, etc.), and an add friend option

### 5/5 — Really cute app

*2026-08-12*

I love seeing which cute creature I get to see each day I meet my step goal! It gives me incentive to walk those few extra steps! Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! 🥹 I’m really happy the little creatures give you that extra push to take those last few steps. That’s exactly what I hoped for when I created Steps & Beasts. 💜

Best,
Malte

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2026-08-01*

Very motivational! Made me want to walk and gave me the excitement of hitting my step goal to see what beast I would get😊

### 5/5 — Perfect for ADHDers

*2026-07-22*

This is the ONLY app that has ever kept me motivated to hit my step count, and I’ve tried a lot. I love being able to hatch a little critter each day, as silly as it sounds. They are so beautifully designed and I always look forward to seeing which one I get.

**Developer response:** Wow, thank you so much! This review means a lot to me. Hearing that Steps & Beasts is the one app that finally keeps you motivated is exactly why I created it. And I promise there are still many more little critters waiting to hatch and new features in the making 💜

Best,
Malte

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-07-16, version 1.5.0*

Fun I look forward to every day when my steps are in that I get to go open a new one

### 5/5 — Ahhh!

*2026-07-16, version 1.5.0*

The new update is amazing! Thank you! ❤️

### 5/5 — Fabulous!

*2026-07-15, version 1.4.3*

This is the best app to encourage you to walk, so many cute beasts to collect. And with the latest update, which added a journey mode where you get a character and update it by using feathers you get as rewards for your steps. Incredible! Well done developers!!
