### 1/5 — widgets

*2026-06-29*

Paid widgets, it's terrible

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, and I'm sorry the widgets left you frustrated. Just so you know, several widgets are free, only some of the more advanced ones are part of the premium upgrade. Steps is built and maintained by just one developer, and that premium upgrade is what keeps the app running while letting me keep step tracking, stats, and the core widgets free for everyone, with no ads. If a specific widget would make a real difference for you, I'd genuinely love to hear which one and why, since that feedback directly shapes what I build next. Feel free to reach out at support@getsteps.app. Thanks for giving Steps a try.

### 5/5 — The Real Deal

*2026-06-25*

I am writing this review because for the first time I have found an app that delivers on its promises. I have worked with several step and fitness apps and they have all left me wanting. STEPS is everything you need to motivate yourself to get with the program. One huge benefit is that the counter is accurate. It mirrors your Apple Health app beautifully. The information it provides is easy to navigate and very rewarding. They even go so far as to make it fun!!  There are also added features like an AI that will break down how well you did on your exercise and a new 3D map that shows the route you followed. There is an option for a monthly subscription but it is so worth it to pay for the ONE TIME lifetime subscription. There are no ads, no hassles, no issues. 

I am not a developer or an influencer. I am just an old guy who found quality amongst a sea of junk. I am writing this because it is worth it.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your incredible review and support! It means a lot to hear that Steps has been such a positive experience for you. I’m glad you’re enjoying the Apple Health integration, AI insights, and 3D route maps. I’ll keep working hard to make the app even better. Thanks again for being part of the Steps community!

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2026-06-07*

This does everything I wanted without unnecessary bloat, all the while having an amazing UX/UI that fits into Apple’s design system while still being unique.

**Developer response:** This made my day, thank you. 'Everything you wanted without the bloat' is exactly what I'm going for, and I'm really glad the design clicked for you. More to come.

### 5/5 — Dad loves it

*2026-04-03*

My dads recovering from a year of severe illness and he’s excited to use this and get back to it!

**Developer response:** This means a lot. Wishing your dad a smooth recovery and a strong return. Glad the app can help him ease back in and stay motivated step by step.

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2026-04-01, version 1.21*

Very well done application, interesting features and very beautiful to see

### 5/5 — Понравилось, но хотелось бы одну доработку

*2026-02-01*

Приложение очень понравилось. Красивое, понятное, большое количество разной статистики, приятные виджеты.

Единственное, при смене дневной цели, она меняется и за предыдущие периоды. Хотелось бы, чтобы дневная цель менялась с текущего дня, так как я постепенно увеличиваю количество шагов. Или хотя бы, чтобы приложение спрашивало: применить изменение цели ко всем прошлым периодам или с текущего момента. 
А так 1.02 я повысила цель по шагам и вся статистика за январь сломалась(
В жизни человека бывают разные периоды, когда нужно уменьшать или увеличивать дневную норму, при этом чтобы статистика сохранилась в каждый период актуальная.

**Developer response:** Спасибо за подробный отзыв и отличное предложение. Вы правы, изменение дневной цели не должно ломать прошлую статистику. Это поведение уже исправлено в последней версии приложения. Теперь изменение цели применяется корректно и не влияет на предыдущие периоды. Пожалуйста, обновите приложение до последней версии.

Если после обновления что-то будет выглядеть не так, напишите нам через настройки приложения — мы проверим.

### 5/5 — Please Russian language

*2026-01-09*

Сделайте пожалуйста на русском языке очень прошу

**Developer response:** Спасибо за отзыв. Русский язык уже доступен в приложении. Пожалуйста, обновите приложение до последней версии и выберите русский язык в настройках системы или приложения. Если язык не переключится автоматически, напишите нам поможем.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-01-08, version 1.12*

Fair price, great graphics!

### 5/5 — Video da condividere

*2025-12-15, version 1.10*

Molto fatto bene unica pecca è che quando condividi il percorso è solo una foto e non un video..
