### 4/5 — Loose streaks if travelling overseas with timezone difference

*2026-09-16, version 1.54.7*

Good motivation to try and hit your goals. Only sad thing is if you are travelling overseas you will loose your streaks. Due to timezone difference it thinks your are trying to cheat the game.

### 5/5 — Its good

*2026-08-06*

When i have my phone on me, it helps me track my steps

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for your review! Luc from Explora

### 5/5 — Makes walking more fun

*2026-06-30*

This game is a good balance between providing some extra encouragement to get steps, without becoming bloatware like so many other walking games.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind review! Luc from Explora

### 5/5 — Enjoying!

*2026-06-25, version 1.53.6*

Got this game to motivate me to walk and so far so good! Love the characters and the challenges!

### 5/5 — Really fun!!!

*2026-06-04*

I thought of this as “Just another tracking app” I started to use it and realized you can get different characters and it makes me want to work harder for my goals. I was looking for a fun game, this is it for sure!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind review!

### 4/5 — The only step counter I’ve kept

*2026-05-28*

Gamifying steps like this makes it fun. It does motivate me to walk a little more when it would be easier to keep sitting, multiple times a day. 

Their update last year I wasn’t a fan of. They made it harder to get perks that help you get prizes. I wish they’d hit a happy medium between the original levels and what it is now. I didn’t see the poll on the Reddit community and I’ll bet a lot of other users didn’t either. I have dozens of apps on my phone and I really don’t go to their communities very often. So I missed it.

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for your detailed feedback, it's very valuable to us. We'll do our best to keep improving and to keep the game balance fair in future updates. Luc from Explora

### 5/5 — Addictif !

*2026-05-17*

L’application est simple mais très addictive. On a très envie de collectionner tous les petits monstres :)

**Developer response:** Merci beaucoup pour ton commentaire !

### 5/5 — Keeps you motivated

*2026-04-23, version 1.52.1*

Great simple game that motivates you without sticking your time with complex interactions. Many times I’ve convinced myself to take the stairs at work because I’ll get Exp for steps!

### 5/5 — A great motivator to keep you moving

*2026-04-16*

The app is fun and it truly makes me walk more. If you don’t mind spending a few bucks it is even more fun!

This developer really cares about users experiences and keeping cheats at bay. Without a good developer, this would be frustrating. He is also active on the discord board. THANK YOU Lucoss!

**Developer response:** Hi! I am happy to let you know that we just released a new update: the world league now updates every 8 hours, which makes it more fair for everyone.
Thanks for walking with us!
Luc from Explora

### 5/5 — Top

*2026-04-11*

Application ludique qui pousse à faire davantage de pas

**Developer response:** Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire !
