No link to help. ### 2/5 — The app has stopped working *2025-09-11, version 8.20.0* The app is not letting me log my steps at the moment. Please fix it or update it. ### 3/5 — Good app but so many notifications *2024-09-17, version 8.5.2* I’ve turned off all tip notifications in the settings area but the app continues to spam me daily with notifications unrelated to my team. Just don’t need those ### 4/5 — Could have some extra features *2024-09-03, version 8.5.2* The activities are a bit dated, I feel like some new ones could be added! Also - would love it to sync with Apple Watch / Garmin watch! Great other than that ### 2/5 — Limited functionality *2024-09-01, version 8.5.2* Has trouble sharing and inviting team members. ### 1/5 — Manual syncing?! *2023-09-01, version 7.13.0* Every other app - including free ones - sync easily in real time with apple health. Why this app still requires manual syncing is beyond me! ### 2/5 — Should sync on its own from Health app *2023-09-01, version 7.13.0* Should sync on its own from Health app ### 1/5 — Hopeless *2023-08-30, version 7.13.0* Logo. Fails Reset password Login fails Reset login password Login fails Copy login Logins fails gahhhh ### 5/5 — Fresh app for 2023 is so much better!! *2023-07-19, version 7.9.0* I just registered downloaded the app again or 2023. It’s so much easier to use! I used log my steps and clicked sync with Apple health and it updated immediately! Looking forward to this 2023 campaign! ### 5/5 — Massive improvement! *2023-07-19, version 7.9.0* Love when you can see how much effort has been invested - especially from a charity. Thank you STEPtember!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does not Sync with health or allow manual entry *2025-09-08, version 8.20.0* It’s got worse. ### 1/5 — This app is a scam *2025-09-05, version 8.20.0* This app doesn’t work. It does not sync with my Apple Health even though I’ve given it permissions. And when I try to log steps manually nothing happens. I select the date, add steps, click Log Steps and literally nothing happens. ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-09-05, version 8.19.0* I’m not sure what happened to the current version of the app, it’s not working. I used the same team and account from last year, and it worked fine before. However, this year, I can’t log in and access my account at all in the app. I can see and access it on the website, but I can’t log in to the app. I can’t even save my progress. So, I’ve decided not to participate this year. :( ### 1/5 — The app is broken *2025-09-01, version 8.15.1* When I opened the app I first saw the logo of the app and then it took me to a white screen where I could do anything. It did not tell me how many steps I had or how many I needed. Please fix your app ### 1/5 — New user unable to login *2025-08-31, version 8.15.1* New user unable to login ### 1/5 — Won’t let me log in *2025-08-26, version 8.15.1* ? ### 1/5 — Sync options limited *2024-09-01, version 8.5.2* Would be good to be able To sync with apps such as connect or MyFitnessPal ### 1/5 — Not working *2024-08-26, version 8.5.2* Can’t even login to the app. Is there a fix underway? ### 1/5 — 2022/2023 App version not as user friendly *2023-09-16, version 7.13.0* I have been doing steptember for a few years now and this year it’s even harder to determine what days I haven’t logged steps on… Please just show the date and the total steps added for that date like it used to be… so frustrating to log that I’ve stopped logging as I can’t work out which days I haven’t added for as it’s included times added and not dates (just last Monday etc). I’m so busy with work and kids and I don’t have time time to add steps everyday and it’s not easy to add for past days … sorry but don’t think I’ll do it next year purely because the app is not easy to use ### 1/5 — Not working *2023-09-02, version 7.13.0* Was looking forward to the newly updated app this year but unfortunately after the latest update it doesn’t even open properly on my iPhone SE. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — STEPtember *2024-09-01, version 8.5.2* Great start to the most deserving fund raise on the planet.
