I’ve used for sometime and find it a really accurate step count.

### 4/5 — Just what I wanted

*2026-07-25, version 2.82*

This app is exactly what I was looking for. I like that I can put a widget on my home screen and always see my steps.

Super

### 5/5 — Gd

### 5/5 — Must have for all!

Simple. Fuss-free. No ads.

### 5/5 — The only app you need!

*2026-07-20, version 2.82*

This does what it says on tin and does it to perfection.

### 5/5 — Simple and works!

No ads! No tricks! This is great, thank you.

### 5/5 — Perfecto

*2026-07-20, version 2.82*

Hace lo que se le pide a la perfección.

### 5/5 — Walking more

*2026-07-19, version 2.82*

I check my steps daily to improve my health and like the weekly details this app shows me

### 2/5 — Doesn’t reflect Apple Health step count

*2026-07-19, version 2.82*

Unlike other apps that read your Health data and display the exact same numbers, this app only uses your iPhone’s motion data to count steps, meaning any steps you take without your phone in your possession are not counted. This seems like a massive oversight and so disappointing for such a promising app!

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2026-07-18, version 2.82*

Muy buena app.
Lo único que cambiaría seria que se pueda ver los 7 días de la semana en una sola pantalla. Sin tener que deslizarla

### 5/5 — perfect!

*2026-07-17, version 2.82*

simple and fuss-free

### 1/5 — App has frozen up

*2026-07-11, version 2.82*

I installed this app today - it froze up

### 1/5 — Not pleased

*2026-06-11, version 2.82*

It didn’t pick up all my steps today it’s a mile and a half off

### 1/5 — Incorrectly tracks steps

*2026-06-05, version 2.82*

I was sitting in bed. And for 5 minutes I waved my phone around to test this, I went from 12,575 to 12,632 in that time. Health app will always be anywhere from 500-1000 behind this in total at the end of the day

### 1/5 — Track my steps

*2026-06-01, version 2.82*

👍🏾

### 1/5 — Step count is off by several thousand steps.

*2026-05-26, version 2.82*

I trusted that this app was accurately counting my steps and today I happened to open my Health app and see the step count my Apple Watch got was almost 2,000 steps higher. Why is this widget missing almost 2,000 of the steps I took today? If this isn’t using the data from my Apple Watch to count my steps it’s useless. Uninstalling.

### 1/5 — Ignores Apple Watch steps data

*2026-05-05, version 2.82*

Useless if you use both Apple Watch and iPhone

### 1/5 — pedometer

*2026-04-21, version 2.82*

The walking app is all right like no ads only thing bad about it. It’s not gonna stop and start. It keeps on tracking you should be able to walk or 3 miles stop and then start again the next day.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-04-09, version 2.82*

It stopped working, I walked on my treadmill for 1 mile and it stopped counting my steps at 1500 steps

### 1/5 — Missing steps

*2026-03-29, version 2.82*

Does not track Apple Watch steps

### 1/5 — Doesn’t match Health steps

*2026-02-26, version 2.82*

It used to be exactly the same number as in the Health app, but now it seems to only count steps recorded by your phone and not by your Apple watch

### 5/5 — Just Try It

*2026-08-24*

This is so simple, it's perfect. You don't need Apple's fitness tracker on sucking up your battery, it just counts steps on your home screen in a non-obtrusive form, and logs them in the app forever. Tells you your average steps for the week. You don't need location on, and it just works for free. After looking for a habit tracker app like this I've realised this app being free is a total anomoly, and it should be rewarded, which is why I'm writing this review. Kudos to you guys, I love you hahaha. Keep it up, and it you make paid features, please keep the home page widget free :)

### 5/5 — Amazing!!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-08-15, version 2.82*

So grateful that this app is good, free, and isn’t harvesting data!

### 5/5 — My review

*2026-08-13, version 2.82*

Very good app for counting steps quickly

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2026-08-13, version 2.82*

Does exactly what I wanted, counts the steps and gives me the daily mileage. No fancy set up or fitness nonsense, just what it says - step counter 👍

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-08-12, version 2.82*

Absolutely love the app. It feels like it’s hella accurate too

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-08-11*

This app I’ve been searching for something like this for so many years and everything been complicated. It didn’t do what I want. I just wanted a basic app. This is awesome for my life. Thank you for making this app. My name is Jason. I’m a real person I never leave reviews, but this app is saving my life

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-08-07, version 2.82*

Good
