About

Walking Quest

Every walk is more fun with a crew. Walking Quest turns your daily steps into a shared adventure — pick two cities anywhere in the world, and watch your walk trace the route between them alongside your friends. No treadmill boredom, no walking alone. Every step you take moves you (and your crew) closer to the finish line. HOW IT WORKS • Pick a challenge — choose any two real cities, worldwide. We estimate your steps and days to get there. • Set your daily step goal — anywhere from 2,000 to 20,000 steps, or start from Gentle, Steady, or Active. • Walk your way there — steps sync automatically from Apple Health, and every step counts toward ALL your active challenges at once. • Team up with friends — join public or invite-only challenges, track live standings, and see how everyone's progressing. • Celebrate the finish — get a shareable stats card with your route, steps, and results to post anywhere. YOUR STEPS, DAY BY DAY • A month calendar that fills in as you walk — the more steps in a day, the deeper its color, so every month is comparable at a glance. • A green dot on every day you hit your goal, and a streak that counts how many days in a row you've kept it. • Month total, daily average, and goal days so far — 12 of 25, not 12 of 31. • Tap any day to see its steps, distance, and which challenge it counted toward. • A 12-month strip to jump back through the year. • Change your goal whenever you like — past days keep the goal you walked them under, so your history is never rewritten. ON YOUR APPLE WATCH • Your route progress on your wrist — one ring showing how far along you are and how far is left to the finish city. • Today's steps against your daily goal, with a clear "goal met" the moment you get there. • Live standings — your rank and the walkers just ahead of and behind you. • The route at a glance: start city to finish city, steps walked out of steps to go. • Your current streak, so you know what's on the line before the day ends. • Watch face complications that show your progress without opening anything. • The watch reads from your iPhone, so there's nothing extra to set up — and if your phone isn't nearby, it falls back to the step count from your wrist. FEATURES YOU'LL LOVE • Personalized step estimates based on your height, weight, and pace • Live standings with medal rankings for the top 3 finishers • A friendly mascot coach cheering you on • Home screen and lock screen widgets to track progress at a glance • Public profiles so friends can see your total steps • Safe, moderated community with built-in report tools WALKING QUEST PRO Upgrade to create unlimited challenges and make them public or invite-only.
