StepTracker — the walking you already do, worth looking at. StepTracker turns the steps Apple Health already tracks into a daily habit worth checking — records, streaks, and patterns from data you're already generating, on your phone and nowhere else. SEE TODAY AT A GLANCE Your ring animates up the moment you open the app. A daily card tells a different story depending on when you check — yesterday's story in the morning, your pace to goal at midday, how close you are to a personal best by evening. EVERY WALK, TRACKED LIVE Start a live walk and watch your count in real time — on the Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island, and on your Apple Watch. It ends itself if you forget, and nothing is ever written back to Health. WIDGETS AND A WATCH APP Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show your ring and count without opening the app. Complications do the same on your wrist, plus a dedicated watch app for your ring, streak, and goal. RECORDS THAT MEAN SOMETHING Personal bests, streaks, and a weekday fingerprint that shows when you actually move. Chase themed journeys — from New York City to the Idaho wilderness to the Pacific Northwest — each one turning distance into a badge collection. 30+ METRICS, ONE PLACE Steps, distance, stairs, walking speed, cadence, and more — each with its own history and chart. COMPLETELY PRIVATE Every calculation happens on your device. No account, no server, no ads. Your health data is never sent anywhere — not even to us. FREE TO TRY StepTracker is free to download and free to use for 7 days. After that, continue with a subscription — monthly, yearly (with its own free trial), or a one-time lifetime purchase. Prices shown in USD and may vary by region. Subscriptions renew automatically and can be managed or cancelled anytime in your Apple ID settings.
