Great App

I have had this app for years and am very pleased with it. I enjoy seeing my dog interact with my step goals. Had a question, contacted customer service, and quickly everything was resolved.

Will you update this to work with iOS 27??? I love the app but now I can’t use it anymore! It just says step dog needs to be updated to make it work with iOS 27

Eh

Doesn’t show up on my Apple Watch anymore after updating to the latest OS

Great app but needs more dog breeds

I love this app and have had it for over a year! Only complaint is that they need a Bernese mountain dog option. They have several unique breeds (afghan hound, basenji, Tibetan to name a few). Bernese mountain dogs are pretty popular so it’s surprising they don’t have that breed option.

Excellent

Would love to see a cocker spaniel in the mix.
Absolutely love this app

Do it for your Dog!

I’ve had StepDog for a few years and have always loved seeing my pooch on my Apple Watch face, counting my steps. It’s very motivating, especially because it looks just like my own dog!🐶

I had a hiccup with the app after a recent iOS update; for some reason, my pup kept getting removed from my Apple Watch face. I reached out to customer service and they were incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful! Really nice to have an app with accessible and productive customer service 😊

Helps me daily! Favorite app!

I love this app helps me walk daily because I want to make this little guy happy. Every day I look forward to petting my dog and hearing his little barks once I reach my goal and he can sleep I feel like I’ve done good for the day. Thank you!

Love!

I love this app! So cute on my Apple Watch face and makes it so I can easily see my steps. Support was very helpful when I had issues.

Easy to use and fun to play

Like to use this app…
Thx a lot

Glitches so bad

**Update 7/26/25-
I still haven’t heard back from anyone, but they did send out an update that fixed it. I really do appreciate it being fixed. This is one of my favorite watch faces that I have.
*Original-I can’t get a hold of anyone about this app. The face will not refresh for show the new steps. No matter what I have done for the past week. I just wish someone would get back to me

Super appli

J’utilise l’app quotidiennement depuis 2 semaines et ca me motive atteindre mon objectif de pas

Une application chouette pour aller marcher

J’ai découvert cette application un peu par hasard, et j’aime beaucoup le concept : on a un écran sur son Apple Watch avec un chien que l’on peut promener chaque jour. Ça incite à atteindre son objectif de nombre de pas journalier. J’ai hâte de voir si dans le futur il y aura d’autres cadrans que l’on peut personnaliser.

Doesn’t work

It’s not working for me at all. It says it won’t work with my watch yet I have a series 9 Apple watch? So I’m confused because it says 4 and up. And I have a newer one but it still won’t work at all. Where the dog goes it’s just bank and kinda blurred out. Super upset about it as I was looking forward to having this app.

Cute but stopped working

One month after I started paying the $1 a month to use the extra features it just stopped working. The dog wouldn’t show up on my watch face. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and no luck fixing it. App and watch were both up to date.

Stopped working

App worked great on my watch but this morning it had disappeared and I can’t get it to go back on my watch! 😡
