Fit as logs the workout you actually did but your phone did not record, and writes it into Apple Health. Walking, running or hiking. You enter it the way you measured it — distance and duration, or duration and pace — and the steps and distance go straight into Apple Health. No account. No sign-up. Nothing to connect. WHEN YOU NEED IT • You trained at work or somewhere phones are not allowed • You ran or hiked and left the phone behind • Your watch or tracker died mid-session • You worked out on a treadmill and want it in Health WHAT IT DOES • Two ways to enter it: distance + duration, or duration + pace • Writes to Apple Health: steps and distance together • Dark mode HOW TO USE IT 1. Allow Fit as to write to Apple Health 2. Enter what you did: distance + duration, or duration + pace 3. It is saved to Health FREQUENTLY ASKED Do I need an account? No. There is no login and no sign-up. Does it work offline? Yes. Logging needs no internet connection. Is it free? Yes. You can log a workout after a short ad, or get PRO to log as many as you like with no ads. Where does it go? Into the Health app built into your iPhone. Any other app that reads Health can read it. Will every app count it? Not necessarily. Some apps only count what their own software recorded and ignore what another app wrote into Health. That is their decision, not a setting in Fit as. Running and hiking too, or only walking? Yes, you can enter any of the three. They are written to Apple Health as steps and walking + running distance, not as a workout, so a run is not saved as a run workout. How soon does it appear? Writing to Health is immediate. Other apps that read Health refresh on their own schedule. For recording activity you really did. Fit as does not measure anything by itself.

Verdict

Both are free to download. Fit as sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and StepsMate Step Counter sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Fit as holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10 and 14 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 24% of Fit as's written reviews are positive against 80% of StepsMate Step Counter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Fit as ships an update every 4 months, StepsMate Step Counter every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
