## What is StepSavvy?

Film a short walk to see how you walk. Then follow home exercise plans built around knee replacement, ACL, meniscus, hip or foot and ankle surgery, or conditions like plantar fasciitis (heel pain), knee arthritis and ankle sprains.

Home exercises made to complement the plan from your own physical therapist or surgeon. Not a substitute for their care.

Free to start. No account or payment method needed.

WALK CHECK (GAIT ANALYSIS)

Prop up your phone and film 5 to 15 seconds of yourself walking past it from the side, or upload a clip. StepSavvy estimates how far your knees and hips bend, upper-body lean, arm swing and how evenly your two sides move (symmetry), usually right on your phone. The free Basic view explains each number in plain words. Made for walking, not running. Premium adds a written AI reading of your walk.

KNEE, HIP & FOOT EXERCISE PLANS

After surgery: pick your procedure and date. Exercises begin 1 to 8 weeks after surgery, depending on the procedure. Your plan then follows 5 phases by weeks since surgery, from gentle first moves to harder ones, on a general timeline, not your surgeon's plan. If your care team's timeline differs, follow theirs.

For a condition (plantar fasciitis, knee or hip arthritis, ankle sprain, Achilles pain): pick it and log your pain level. Exercises come in 3 levels (gentle, building, maintenance), re-checked against your latest pain log. Your care team's advice comes first.

Sessions have captioned follow-along videos, sets, reps and a check-off. First 5 workout days free; full plan with Premium. If you marked pain of 4 or more out of 10 on the body map in the last 2 days, the session can flag exercises for that area to ease off or skip. The choice is yours. If pain keeps rising, check with your care team.

FOOT & SHOES

- Shoe closet: track each pair's miles, typed in or from your phone's steps, with a heads-up near a typical replacement point
- Heel-angle tool: on a photo of your lower legs from behind, place 3 dots per leg to see each heel's tilt
- Premium: an AI foot photo reading and a shortlist of shoes commonly paired with feet like yours, to try on, not a prescription

FORM CHECK (PREMIUM)

Record or upload a side-view video of your squat or bench press set for rep-by-rep notes and cues.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-22*

I’ve been using Step Savvy and really like how much it has in one app. It analyzes your walking and foot images and then gives you personalized lower extremity exercises based on your results. I especially like that the exercises have videos showing you how to do them instead of just giving you a list. It’s really easy to use and makes understanding your feet and movement a lot less confusing

### 5/5 — Simple and intuitive

*2026-08-18*

"Excellent app—easy to use, informative, and very helpful !
Highly recommended!"

### 5/5 — Great features and real help

*2026-08-18*

I’ve been working a job delivering heavy items for almost a year now, constantly being in my feet started taking a toll, a friend of mine recommended I use this app to help me alleviate some issues, the ai driven analysis of photos and videos I send it off my stride and walking helped me discover I needed better arch support for my feet, it recommended insoles that have been a GAME CHANGER, the closet feature is very neat as well, i can put in there what type of shoes  I wear and the app helps keep track of wear and tear and even recommends shoes with solid support. The app operates so fluidly. I’m able to log my pain, exercises, and I can even get analysis on my form for my movements. I can’t recommend this app enough!

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2026-08-16*

Long time runner. Had been working with PT for a while to fix my knee issues but the costs were adding up. Tried the 7 day free trial and got the subscription, the personalized plan is definitely worth it. My knee feels better than ever thanks to step savvy!

### 5/5 — The app I needed

*2026-08-16*

I have been looking for something like this for a while that would allow me to do physical therapy at home and help me track my progress. Cool thing also that it allows me to track my shoes and gives me recommendations for it by checking how my feet land on the ground. This helps due to how my feet turn inwards.

### 5/5 — My Review

*2026-08-16*

An excellent health & fitness app that is easy to use, informative, and very helpful. I like to track my exercise every single day . This has helped with my recovery.
