### 3/5 — Reached out to solve a syncing issue.

*2025-07-23, version 3.9.8*

Wonderful app very addictive, my current issue is I cannot sync my health app with it. All permissions are approved. I sent email and will update review as things progress. :)

### 2/5 — Cute, but...

*2025-06-10*

This game is cute and can stimulate walking. I really liked it testing it out walking around inside until warmer weather came. My first time walking outside I accidentally clicked an ad once(I think) and now it has mandatory pop-up ads all the time. Easy way to guarantee I will delete this and NOT purchase anything.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for trying Wokamon: walking games, fitness games, gps games. Although we would also like to offer an ads-free app, our development does depend on the ads income. Despite this, all the video ads in the game are optional to watch and you can remove the static ads by subscribing to our app. Thank you for your understanding! Happy walking!

### 3/5 — Just stopped working- updated

*2024-11-16, version 3.9.6*

Woke up this morning, 10/27/2024 and the game will not sync steps- this is happening on not only my device but also my wife and two sons, so it’s the game.
The forums have no help. UPDATED- the developer fix reset the sync

### 4/5 — 现在没法充值？

*2024-10-28, version 3.9.6*

想充钱都没得充

### 3/5 — Hoping I can get it to work!

*2024-09-02*

This app looks so interesting and could be motivational! But I’m just having trouble with it. I can’t find anything only to help with my issues. It is not tracking my steps with my phone or watch. I think it is connected correctly. I’ve been trying to google whether the app needs to be open while I walk or not. Hopefully I get a response with what I can try or I just some how figure it out.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for trying Wokamon -  walking games, fitness games, gps games. Can you please switch to 'phone' option in Settings -> Sync? It reads the same data as the health app. Happy walking!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t sync

*2024-08-12, version 3.9.6*

Sync to health doesn’t work so can’t use the app

### 1/5 — Does not sync with Apple health

*2024-04-21, version 3.9.5*

I use focus quest when studying and I saw this for their fitness line of games. I thought I’d give it a go because I’ve always liked tamagotchi style games. 

This however, will not sync with my apple health or watch!! 

Please fix!

### 4/5 — Please fix a bug

*2024-03-04*

Если активирую еду - табы в магазине перестают переключаться по клику, также не реагирует кнопка повышения уровня у вокамона

**Developer response:** Здравствуйте, спасибо за использование «Wokamon Star Walker — игра для похудания, игра для ходьбы, игра для подсчета шагов». Не могли бы вы попробовать обновить игру до последней версии? Если проблема все еще существует, не могли бы вы прислать видео-скриншот проблемы на адрес mars.zhu@shikudo.com, чтобы мы могли помочь ее решить? Я надеюсь, что эта игра поможет вам выработать дисциплинированную привычку ходить.

### 1/5 — No support

*2024-01-02*

Used to be my favorite game but there have been no updates.   So many of my top leaderboard members are all maxed out and are quitting because nothing has been added in forever. 

Now the ads don’t work and you can’t get out of them.  I’ve deleted app and reinstalled still no help

If you aren’t playing their newest app it seems you are useless and irrelevant.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for trying Wokamon -  walking games, fitness games, gps games. The video ad issue has been updated in the latest update (> v3.9.2). Please manually update the game via our app store page. Happy walking!

### 4/5 — Makes walking great fun

*2023-11-30, version 3.9*

Fun for walking a little heavy on micro transactions.

### 1/5 — AUTO ADS

*2023-11-17, version 3.9*

Get rid of the auto ads from every time I come back to the app or I’m deleting this.

### 1/5 — Freezing

*2023-11-09, version 3.9*

Now when I open the app and click the heart my game freezes then crashes. I really liked this game too :(

### 1/5 — Was great until the latest update

*2023-07-21, version 3.9*

There is no support for this app and they have stopped honoring past purchases. Ads are popping up constantly and the restore purchases button crashes the app. There are so many ads the game is completely useless now.

### 1/5 — ! Not playable

*2026-05-11, version 3.9.9*

I can’t even pass level 1 I walked ALOT and the egg is not hatching please fix this

### 1/5 — Broken!

*2026-05-04, version 3.9.9*

It won’t connect to my health app even though Ive allowed everything. No place to troubleshoot and 80% of the buttons don’t work

### 1/5 — app doesn’t work

*2026-03-23, version 3.9.9*

i’ve been trying to use this app since 2021 none of the features work and i can’t even sync my fitbit to it please fix this

### 1/5 — Apple Watch非対応

*2025-12-04*

Apple Watchでの歩数分は連動できません。スマホ持って歩かないので意味ない。
即削除。

**Developer response:** こんにちは、ウォーカモン - ウォーキング ゲーム、フィットネス ゲーム、GPS ゲームをお試しいただきありがとうございます。私たちのゲームデザインの哲学は、プレイヤーの皆様がゲームを進めたり達成感を味わったりすることで、やる気を引き出すことにあります。ゲームプレイの要素を豊富にご用意しておりますので、歩行の進捗やアイドルタイムでの成果が、再びゲームに戻りたくなるような体験を提供いたします。ハッピーウォーキング！

### 1/5 — It’s an ad watching game

*2025-09-05*

Do you like watching 2 minute ads. Then this game is for you. Not exaggerating, there are literally 2 minutes long ads. Edit: I am so sick of developers responding with you don’t have to watch the ads. You also don’t need to show 2 minute long ads that require multiple screen taps to advance to generate revenue. It is also not clear at all what I need to click on to get ad free. I purchased something hoping to remove ads but they continued anyway.

### 1/5 — Can’t even clock in fitbit to sync.. and no way to contact Wokamon!

*2025-05-21, version 3.9.8*

I can not even click on Fitbit.. it only allows me to click on the apple heart app or my phone, I don’t carry my phone around so I can’t get my actual steps!  Can’t contact Wokamon either!  Very frustrating!

### 1/5 — Fun way to be active, but I want more!

*2024-11-04, version 3.9.6*

New review after coming back years later to play it again - the app is broken. You currently cannot sync it to count your steps, so it’s unplayable. Others confirm on the forums. 

The app really helped me with getting off my butt and being more active. In now fully in the active habits and don’t really need the app anymore, but it’s a fun little way to reward myself for the activity! Problem is I’m pretty much done with it-have all the wokamen, clothes, and planets you can get without having to get them through money/bundles and therefore have nothing left to do in the app. Would love an update with some more monsters and planets to work on!

### 1/5 — Not working!!!

*2024-10-29, version 3.9.6*

All of the sudden, my whole family can’t collect on our XP. The heart just spins and spins. 

It’s been 4 days and nothing!

### 1/5 — FROZEN

*2024-10-29, version 3.9.6*

I can’t get exp

### 1/5 — うーん

*2024-09-25*

歩数カウントされなくて悲しい

**Developer response:** こんにちは、ウォーカモン - ウォーキング ゲーム、フィットネス ゲーム、GPS ゲームをお試しいただきありがとうございます。 設定 -> 同期で「電話」オプションに切り替えてもらえますか？ヘルスアプリと同じデータを読み取ります。ハッピーウォーキング！

### 5/5 — Cute!

*2023-11-13, version 3.9*

I kinda want to get this music as a song on a looo I can listen to. Happy. Wokamon are happy.  Simple game.

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2023-04-22, version 3.9*

Enjoyable game, helps me stay motivated

### 5/5 — Great Fun!  Walk More!

*2023-03-01*

I love this app.  It’s more than just a pedometer.  With every step you earn “ topaz” or “ crystals” that you then use to purchase new little creatures and their add on clothes or items that in turn earn you more rewards.  It is very cute and fun and I find the little creatures inspire me to get more steps in every day.
I only wish they would add more creatures as I have now gotten them all.
It’s free and great inspiration .  Get this app and walk, walk, walk !

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for trying Wokamon -  walking games, fitness games, gps games. If you have any feedback/suggestions, please leave a message on our forum (https://forum.shikudo.com/c/wokamon). Happy walking!

### 5/5 — Wish they’d add more

*2023-02-16*

I’ve had this app for a few years. I’m almost completely finished with all the planets and characters and outfits. In the next 6 months when I’ve achieved everything besides the luck draws this app will be over. I’m guessing no one works on it anymore and it’s a dead app. Too bad.

**Developer response:** We are doing our best to continue to develop new content. Please give us more time and let's look forward to new content together.
Happy walking!
