Pedometer

Pedometer turns your daily steps into something you can actually read. It runs on HealthKit, pulls your real walking data, and turns it into clean charts, goal rings, insight cards and a hand-built Apple Watch app. No ads, no noise, no dark patterns. TODAY A live step ring, a 7-day chart, distance, calories and a streak counter — all on one quiet screen. GOAL COACH Your target shouldn't be a guess. Goal Coach reads your last two weeks and suggests a goal you'll actually hit — or raises the bar once you've outgrown it. STREAK FREEZE One bad day shouldn't erase a month. Every month you get streak freezes that cover a missed day and keep your run alive. SHARE YOUR DAY Turn today into a card worth posting — steps, distance, calories and your streak in one image. STATISTICS Six tabs of real analytics: Overview, Steps, Activity, Goals, Trends and Body. Weekday averages, comparisons and a 14-day history table. INSIGHTS 500+ insight cards built from your own data — streaks, projections, weekday patterns, milestones. The first three are always free. ACHIEVEMENTS 50+ medals, from your first 10,000-step day to legendary 5-million-step status, plus streak badges from 3 days to a full year. APPLE WATCH A focused Watch app with today's ring, weekly statistics, and a built-in walking workout that records pace, heart rate, distance and calories straight to HealthKit. WIDGETS Home Screen and Watch widgets in every size, plus a Control Center control that puts your step count one swipe away. SMART REMINDER An evening nudge that knows how far you actually have left — "1,200 steps to go, about an 11-minute walk." THEMES Eight hand-crafted color systems with gradient accents and live previews. PRIVACY Everything stays on your device. Pedometer asks HealthKit for permission and runs locally. Insights are generated on-device, on your data, and nothing leaves your phone or watch.
