PokeT-Walk logs the steps you really walked but your phone never counted, and writes them into Apple Health. No account. No sign-up. Nothing to connect. Pick a distance, tap once, and the steps and walking distance go straight into Apple Health — where every app that reads Health can see them, including walking games and step challenges. WHEN YOU NEED IT • You walked at work, where you cannot carry your phone • You went out for a walk or a run and left the phone at home • Your battery died and those steps were never recorded • You walked indoors or on a treadmill and want it to count WHAT IT DOES • One tap to log: pick a distance, press once • Writes to Apple Health: steps and walking distance together • History and charts: every entry you have synced, any time • Custom Walk (PRO): any distance from 0.5 to 25 km, any pace from 2 to 12 km/h • Natural Pace switch: the daily guard is yours to turn off in Settings • Dark mode HOW TO USE IT 1. Allow PokeT-Walk to write to Apple Health 2. Tap the distance you walked 3. Steps and distance are 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 steps needs no internet connection. Where do the steps go? Into the Health app built into your iPhone. Any other app that reads Health can read them. Will every app count these steps? Not necessarily. Some apps and games only count steps their own software recorded and ignore anything another app wrote into Health. That is their decision, not a setting in PokeT-Walk, and no app can change it for them. Is there a free version? Yes. Logging steps is free. PRO removes ads and unlocks Custom Walk. Is there a daily limit? By default a Natural Pace guard keeps entries within a believable walking rhythm. You can switch it off in Settings, and then there is no limit. How soon do the steps appear? Writing to Health is immediate. Other apps that read Health refresh on their own schedule, which can take a while. IF SOMETHING DOES NOT SYNC Settings > Help covers how to check Health permissions, how to restore a purchase, and what to do when an entry does not show up. ABOUT PRO PRO removes ads and unlocks Custom Walk. Duration and price are shown on the purchase screen inside the app. Terms of Use: https://ghapps1.wordpress.com/terms-condition/ Privacy Policy: https://ghapps1.wordpress.com/privacy-policy/
