Stepminder averages your recent steps and distance, smoothing out day-to-day variations. The default 7-day weighted average gives the most weight to steps today (¼ of the total), and the least weight to steps six days ago (1/28 of the total). Change the averaging period, or choose an unweighted average (that is, each day has the same weight). An unweighted average of 7-28 days, for example, is useful if you do most of your walking on weekends. Visually track your progress toward your goal through the day. Or turn off goal orientation and just see how much you walk. Stepminder integrates with the Health app, using it as its source of past step counts and walking & running distances.

Count every step, hit your daily goal, and watch your progress add up. Every feature described below is unlocked only with an auto-renewable subscription purchased inside the app. New users receive a one-week free trial; you may cancel anytime during the trial to avoid being charged. StepLog turns your iPhone into a precise, private step counter and pedometer. The moment you open it, today's steps, distance, calories and active time are right there on a clean dashboard built for a single glance. There is no account to create and no sign up to sit through. Your activity is read straight from the motion sensor and Apple Health, then stored on your own device, so your daily movement always stays yours. Set a daily step goal that fits you, whether that is a gentle 5,000, the classic 10,000, or an ambitious target you are training toward. A live progress ring fills as you move through the day, and a clear streak counter keeps the momentum going so one good day quietly becomes a habit you can see. Look back over any day, week, month or year. Clean charts show how your steps, distance and calories trend over time, so you can spot your most active days, compare this week to last, and stay honest about rest days. Every walk, errand and workout adds to a history you actually want to revisit. Keep your progress in sight without opening the app. The home screen and lock screen widgets show live steps and goal progress all day, and they refresh as you walk, so a little motivation is always one glance away. WHAT YOU GET - Accurate step counting from the motion coprocessor and Apple Health - A live daily dashboard with steps, distance, calories and active minutes - A custom daily goal with a smooth animated progress ring - Streaks that reward consistency day after day - History and trend charts by day, week, month and year - Home screen and lock screen widgets that update live as you move - Distance in kilometers or miles with a clean metric or imperial switch - Calories burned estimated from your real movement, not guesswork - A bright light mode and a comfortable dark mode for any time of day - Full support for 39 languages, with no setup required PRIVATE BY DESIGN StepLog has no login, no ads and no data harvesting. Your steps and health data live on your device and in Apple Health, never on a server we control. Walking is good for you, and it should never cost you your privacy. Nothing you do here is sold, shared or mined. WHY A STEP GOAL HELPS A simple daily target is one of the easiest ways to move more without overthinking it. Watching the ring close and the streak grow turns a vague intention into a small, satisfying win you can repeat. Over weeks those wins stack into real distance, steadier energy and a routine that finally sticks. BUILT FOR EVERY WALKER Whether you are chasing 10k a day, rebuilding a routine after a break, walking off lunch, training for a longer distance, or simply trying to sit less and move more, StepLog meets you where you are and grows with you. No coach, no noise, just a quiet nudge and an honest count you can trust. Download StepLog, set your goal, and let today's first steps start the streak.
