Duffy vs Active Week

Duffy provides quick access to your step count directly on your Apple Watch face as a complication. I was surprised to find that a steps complication wasn’t included on Apple Watches out of the box. Being a veteran iOS developer, I decided to build one in my spare time. I really loved my prototype version and thought there were more people who would love it too. So I put in the extra effort to release it to the App Store for everyone! Duffy is completely free, has no ads, and is even open source so if you’re also a developer, you can help me enhance it. Duffy is a simple app, but it will probably turn into the most used app on your Apple Watch. No more opening the Activity app and scrolling around to find your steps. It’s now available at a glance. Duffy is more than just an elegant Apple Watch complication. Use the full watch app for easy access to your steps, flights climbed and distance travelled for today and the past week. Set a daily steps goal and be notified on your watch when you reach it. The companion iPhone app provides the same access to your steps, flights and distance on a much larger, easier-to-read surface while also allowing you to dig deeper into your data to see trends and statistics over time. Duffy reads the steps, flights climbed, distance travelled, and activity energy from your iPhone and Apple Watch from the Health app (via the HealthKit API).

Are the same, static activity goals, day in and day out, not cutting it for you? Let Active Week automatically set and track your daily health and fitness goals. Setting and chasing goals is what keeps us motivated to be active and exercise. But Fitness Goals must be dynamic, rewarding us if we get ahead and pushing us if we fall behind. Your goals should not be the same every day! Enter Active Week. The app automatically and dynamically sets daily goals for you to help you stay on top your weekly health, fitness, and activity goals. Every day, Active Week will set new daily goals for you, based on your goals and your previous activity. Active Week integrates with the Apple Health app, which means you can use Active Week with any fitness tracker that syncs with the Apple Health app, including Apple Watch. Active Week analyzes your health and activity data for the entire week, let's you know when you've earned a day off or if you've fallen behind and need to step it up, and reveals trends in your data. Active Week lets you know exactly what you need to do each day to stay on track. Active Week shows how far you are from your goal in real time; beautifully visualizes your data with interactive charts; draws trend lines for your health data; calculates your daily average for the current week and the last seven days; provides a historical perspective letting you see how you've been doing week-by-week for the last year; offers customizable, rich notifications; let's you enable, disable, and re-order the data points that matter to you; allows you to switch between a dark or light theme. Active Week does not require an account. You don't need to sign up, or log in, or even have an internet connection. The app is 100% secure; your health/activity data never leaves your phone. Active Week supports goal setting and tracking for the following data points (with more to come): Active Energy, Walking/Running Distance, Exercise Minutes, Flights Climbed, Mindful Minutes, Steps, Water, and Workout Minutes.
