### 2/5 — Nice app but disappointed

*2026-07-16, version 1.12*

I really wanted to LOVE this app. And while I more than appreciate finally getting accurate step counts on my walk while keeping BOTH hands on a stroller/wagon, I am highly disappointed that I cannot see my walk route on the maps. I love being able to go back to my outdoor walk sessions and see exactly where I walked. However when I use this app it does not provide that feature.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2026-05-24, version 1.10*

I walk with my you and, our 14 year old, and our newborn. Their steps are 2000+ ahead of mine, even with this app. I’ve updated my phone, repaired my watch & this is all from my Health app, not even just the fitness. It’s not calculating correctly.

### 5/5 — This is amazing

*2026-05-12, version 1.10*

Love this! So helpful!

### 5/5 — Should have been made a long time ago!

*2026-05-12, version 1.10*

Crazy that most health apps can’t track steps accurately while walking a stroller. This is a great app for parents who get their steps out with their small kids!

### 5/5 — Love Seeing My Step Count Accurately

*2026-05-05, version 1.10*

I’ve been saying for years that the Apple watch should already have this feature. As someone who does most of their walking with a stroller I was losing thousands of steps each walk. I’ve been loving stroller steps and seeing my hard work reflected accurately in my daily step count! Would recommend to any and all stroller users!

### 5/5 — Finally getting credit for my steps!

*2026-05-05, version 1.10*

So glad to be able to fully account for all the steps I am taking postpartum— especially when movement/exercise already feels limiting. Starting to feel much more accomplished!

### 2/5 — Does not work

*2026-04-30, version 1.10*

You have to pay before even starting a walk. Steps are not updating walked for 20 minutes. The BPM stays at 0.  When clicked on start stroller walk only counts minutes walked… paid 9.99 for nothing.
Yes my iOS is updated and using Apple watch 11. 😲😲😲

### 5/5 — E

*2026-04-19, version 1.10*

Awesome app

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2026-03-27, version 1.10*

I love this app! I was so frustrated that my steps were not being counted while I was pushing the stroller. I use it all the time.

### 5/5 — Loved!

*2026-03-27, version 1.10*

Amazing as a new mom

### 5/5 — A fulfilling option!!

*2026-03-27, version 1.10*

So nice to have this when walking with a stroller or wagon and using to track steps. I found the app freshly postpartum because I would walk and my watch wasn’t tracking half of it.

### 4/5 — Overall good, but improvements needed

*2026-03-11, version 1.10*

I love that there is an app that accurately tracks my steps as I’m pushing my baby in the stroller. While the app was simple to sync to my Apple Watch and is simple to use, my biggest complaint is that the app stays open the entire time it’s in use on my watch and the “end stroller walk” button is too easily pressed. I’ve accidentally ended my walks by pulling up my shirt sleeve to check how long I’ve been walking or to see notifications on my watch. I wish you had to toggle to a different screen, like on Apple workouts, to end the walk.

### 4/5 — Awesome when it works!

*2025-08-01, version 1.10*

Absolutely LOVE the concept of this app and have been using it almost since it came out. However, it can be quite glitchy. Recently, after a walk with stroller steps it will say the total steps were 4600 for example, then I’ll look at my apple health steps and the total for the day so far is 4200 and that was including other walking just around the house and stuff. So the totals don’t seem to be going into my Apple health total step count. I’ve checked all the permissions and everything seems good, so I don’t know what else it could be.

### 3/5 — Promising

*2025-07-25, version 1.10*

The app itself looks really good, but it’s a little frustrating that you have to pay a subscription for something an Apple Watch should do automatically

### 5/5 — Works fine in UK

*2025-07-03, version 1.10*

Works fine

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2026-06-01, version 1.10*

In order to use this, you need an Apple Watch. That defeats the purpose of why I need it. I take most of my walks with my phone in the stroller, it does not recognize these steps. I was recommended this app. If I’m wearing my Apple Watch my steps are counted even when walking with a stroller. I need something that will track the distance steps when the phone is in the stroller. Absolutely would NOT PAY MONEY for this.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-05-08, version 1.10*

I have been on several stroller walks since using the app and it always registers 0 steps. All health permissions are turned on and watch and phone are up to date.  What a disappointment because the idea is wonderful!

### 1/5 — This app sucks

*2026-01-06, version 1.10*

EDIT to add: not only is it not accurately reading my steps it blocking the steps that my phone would normally read and now my steps are half of what they normally are. It’s honestly terrible and it seems like you had to jump through hoops to get it to work properly judging by their response to everybody’s complaints. Just attach your watch to you ankle for an accurate reading and save your money

Every time I go for a walk it counts 0 steps. Total waste of money wish I could get a refund.

### 1/5 — This app sucks

*2026-01-04*

Every time I go for a walk it counts 0 steps. Total waste of money wish I could get a refund.

### 1/5 — Works and then doesn’t work

*2025-07-09, version 1.10*

Sometimes it’s really accurate, other time I walk a mile and a half and it says I only took 1500 steps. Not using anymore, not worth the frustration

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-06-04, version 1.10*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — App does not work on Apple Watch, waste of $10

*2025-04-14, version 1.10*

Written April 2025. My elderly mom has an Apple Watch fully updated that is no longer accurately tracking her steps because she is recovering from knee surgery and must constantly have 2 hands on her rolling walker. I thought this app would be a great solution to track her steps while pushing her rolling walker, and to show her progress with physical therapy. We paid the $10 lifetime subscription fee, installed it onto the watch, and tried to start it. We keep getting the message saying we don’t have a subscription on her watch, but on her iPhone it clearly states we have a subscription. The help page brings you to a non-working link on WhatsApp. There is no way to get any customer support, and the app is totally stuck and doesn’t work. Complete waste of time and money. App seems like a good idea, but it’s a complete scam.

### 1/5 — 0

*2025-03-18*

This app is in my phone and says it’s connected correctly to my phone but it counts 0 steps. The customer service process is ridiculous. Easter of money

**Developer response:** Hi there — I’m so sorry for the frustration! When the app shows 0 steps, it’s usually because Apple Health permissions weren’t fully enabled during setup. Thankfully it’s an easy fix!

Here’s how to make sure everything’s connected:

Option 1:
	1.	Open the Stroller Steps app on your iPhone
	2.	Tap Apple Health
	3.	Tap Continue — this will open the Apple Health permissions screen
	4.	Tap Turn On All at the top, and make sure all toggles are green

Option 2:
	1.	Open the Apple Health app on your iPhone
	2.	Tap Data Access & Devices
	3.	Scroll down and tap Stroller Steps
	4.	Tap Turn On All and confirm all toggles are green

If you’re still having issues after that, feel free to message us on WhatsApp — we’re happy to help troubleshoot or issue a refund if needed.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-12-16, version 1.10*

I tried using this app multiple times and it’s never correct. I walk my usual 2 miles with my stroller and it only calculated about 1,000 steps and 0.5 miles each time I used it. Wish I could get my $10 back but the maker is unreachable.

### 1/5 — Useless in the uk

*2024-12-01, version 1.10*

Doesn't work in England

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2026-08-04, version 1.12*

Excellent App, works well in the UK. Not expensive subscription.

### 5/5 — Favorite Step Tracker!!

*2026-08-03, version 1.12*

I love that Stroller Steps lets me see my missing steps! As a busy mom, it’s so motivating to know that every walk and every little bit of movement counts. Seeing my progress helps keep me accountable and reminds me that even the small efforts add up. I love that it encourages moms to stay active together and celebrate the journey!

### 5/5 — Perfect for Apple Watch Moms

*2026-07-07, version 1.10*

This app has been such a great addition to my fitness journey! I love that it syncs with Apple Health and my Apple Watch, so all of my walks count toward my activity rings. It’s helped me stay motivated while getting outside with my kids. I highly recommend it!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-07-06, version 1.10*

Really enjoyed the app! It was super helpful to count stroller steps! Highly recommend. Very easy to set up and use!

### 5/5 — Easy & effective!

*2026-07-02, version 1.10*

Easy to download and use. Love seeing all of my steps count when pushing a stroller or wagon!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-06-17, version 1.10*

I’ve used Stroller Steps for about a month and I’ve loved being able to track my steps on my Apple Watch. I had no problem setting it up, and I use it every day! Being able to actually see how much (or little) I walk has been a game changer for my postpartum health.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2026-06-10, version 1.10*

I would always get frustrated on outdoor walks with my stroller never picking up the right amount of steps! Now it picks up the missing steps I couldn’t have asked for a better app!

### 5/5 — Finally my steps are being counted

*2026-06-10, version 1.10*

😍 so happy about this, I go on so many walks and the correct steps never get counted Apple Watch alone. So glad this exists now, my steps are getting tracked 🥹

### 5/5 — Game changer!

*2026-06-08, version 1.10*

Just started using this app, but it’s definitely a game changer. I usually use the walking app on my Apple Watch to record my walks, but I was shocked to see how many steps the regular walking app missed. Can’t believe I would have missed about 1500 extra steps. Really happy that this will help me get a more accurate step count reading and give me a better picture of my daily activity.

### 5/5 — Love this!

*2026-05-16, version 1.10*

Super happy I found this app. It’s so helpful in counting my extra steps and taking advantage of all the time I spend with the kids at the park!
