## What is Walkabout?

Walkabout turns your everyday steps into a walk through the world's most iconic streets.

Using real footage from Apple Maps' Look Around, Walkabout advances you along a curated walking route — through Tokyo, Paris, New York, London, Rome, or Madrid — based on the actual steps you take, tracked via Apple Health.

No treadmill screens, no fake progress bars — just real photography of real streets, unlocked one step at a time.

HOW IT WORKS
• Pick a course: a landmark-dense loop through one of six cities
• Walk in real life — your steps move you forward on the route
• See where you are: each checkpoint shows an actual photo of that spot
• Check your progress anytime from the home screen widget

COURSES
• Tokyo Loop — Shibuya, Meiji Jingu, Asakusa, Skytree, Ginza
• Paris Loop — Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Notre-Dame
• New York Loop — Times Square, Central Park, Wall Street
• London Loop — Big Ben, Tower Bridge, the London Eye
• Rome Historic Center Loop — Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, Colosseum
• Madrid Historic Center Loop — Puerta del Sol, Plaza Mayor, Royal Palace

Walkabout only reads your step count — nothing else. Your health data stays on your device and is never sent anywhere or used for advertising. Free to use, supported by ads.


## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-08-24

Rome and Madrid have grown. Each course now visits eleven landmarks instead of five, with a longer walk between them.

New places to walk
• Rome — Spanish Steps, Villa Borghese, Piazza del Popolo, Castel Sant'Angelo, St. Peter's Basilica, Mouth of Truth
• Madrid — Almudena Cathedral, Temple of Debod, Plaza de Cibeles, Retiro Park, Prado Museum, Reina Sofia

Also new
• The widget keeps up with your steps without needing the app opened
• Each course keeps its own progress, so switching between them no longer starts you over
• Places you have already walked past stay in your journal after you complete a lap
• See which lap you are on
• Each checkpoint now shows how many steps it took to get there
• Open a place from your journal and the main view goes there

Fixed
• The widget now names the landmark you have reached
• Some landmarks, including the Arc de Triomphe, showed the wrong view
• The route map now follows the streets
• Today's step count could read as zero for a moment when the app opened

### 1.0 — 2026-08-18
