### 5/5 — Dimitris

*2026-08-14, version 3.1.1*

Excellent

### 5/5 — None

*2026-05-07*

I like steps. I hate your Temu ad with naked women. If it continues I will get rid of steps app.

### 1/5 — My Steps

*2026-04-09, version 3.1.0*

I’m at work Monday through Friday and I do a lot of walking. I have my IWatch sync with my phone and some days it shows that I walked very little when I know that’s wrong. I have been carrying my phone and my Apple watch and it is still not tracking every day and every step

### 3/5 — My Steps

*2026-03-01*

I’m at work Monday through Friday and I do a lot of walking. I have my IWatch sync with my phone and some days it shows that I walked very little when I know that’s wrong.

### 1/5 — Missing data

*2026-02-17*

I use a Fitbit so can’t merge data. However the app has huge gaps in my activity. It has one week of Feb 2026 but has nothing from Aug 2025!! Then another gap between Oct 2024 until July 2025. I may as well just delete the app. It’s pointless.

### 5/5 — Akis

*2026-01-25, version 3.1.0*

Great App! Well done guys…

### 5/5 — Arabic

*2025-11-08, version 3.0.6*

Arabic language support

### 1/5 — Nagy csalódás

*2025-10-01, version 3.0.1*

Évekig nagyon szerettem, szuper volt. De amióta megtörtént a beharangozott szuper nagy frissítésük pár hete, minden előző adatom eltűnt. Már letöltöttem egy másik alkalmazást, ezt meg törlöm..

### 1/5 — Steps counter

*2025-09-17, version 3.0*

After the update I lost all milleage from October 3rd 2024 to September 9th 2025

### 3/5 — Cambii de registros

*2025-09-17, version 3.0*

Hola.
En la ultima versión no encuentro la forma de exportar los datos a un archivo.
Por otro lado tampoco veo el ajuste de longitud de paso.
Además los valores de días ya terminados se modifican y considero este cambio negativo.
