Your step goal. No excuses. StridePal is the no-nonsense step tracker for iPhone and Apple Watch that keeps you moving and out of your own way. Most step apps bury you in data, slow you down, or just get ignored. StridePal cuts through the noise. One goal. One focus. Every day. STAY LOCKED ON YOUR GOAL Always know where you stand and exactly what it takes to finish the day strong. BUILT FOR YOUR WRIST Pick the watch face that fits you: a full progress ring, or your step count in the biggest type we could fit. Swipe for trends and friends, and put those pages in whatever order you like. Your count lives on your watch face too, as a complication. WALK WITH FRIENDS Follow the people who keep you honest. See how their day is going, send a cheer when they crush it, and give everyone a photo and a color so you know who is who at a glance. 7-DAY STEP CHALLENGES Challenge a friend to seven days. Most steps wins. Everyone gets seven full days in their own time zone, and StridePal tells you when your friend's day ends before or after yours. PROGRESS THAT ACTUALLY MOTIVATES Daily and weekly stats that push you forward, not put you to sleep. Streaks, records, weekly totals, and how you stack up against last week, last month, and last year. RUTHLESSLY SIMPLE DESIGN No bloat. No fluff. Just the stuff that keeps you moving. Miles or kilometers, your call. StridePal is free to download and use. Stats and Trends is a one-time unlock, yours to keep. Sharing works like a group plan: one person subscribes and invites the others, and everyone they invite joins at no cost. Every sharing plan includes Stats and Trends for as long as it is active, so there is no reason to buy both. Prices are shown in the app before you buy anything. A subscription renews automatically unless it is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel yours in Settings, Apple Account, Subscriptions.
