StepNudge holder dig i bevægelse ved at sende påmindelser, når dit skridtantal halter bagud — præcis når du har mest brug for et lille skub. **SÆT DIN EGEN PÅMINDELSESPLAN** Opret regler for et vilkårligt tidspunkt på dagen. Hvis du er under et bestemt antal skridt til frokosttid, midt på eftermiddagen eller om aftenen, sender StepNudge en stille notifikation, så du kan tage en kort gåtur. Du bestemmer tidspunkterne og målene — appen holder sig ellers i baggrunden. **DAGLIGT SKRIDTMÅL** Sæt et personligt dagligt skridtmål og følg din fremgang i løbet af dagen. Dit mål synkroniseres automatisk med dit Apple Watch og alle dine widgets. **APPLE WATCH-APP** Se din fremgang direkte på håndleddet. Watch-appen viser en tydelig fremgangscirkel og dagens skridtantal med ét blik — ingen telefon nødvendig. **SMUKKE WIDGETS** Tilføj StepNudge til din hjemmeskærm eller låseskærm for øjeblikkelige opdateringer. Tilgængelig i lille, mellem og stor størrelse til hjemmeskærmen, plus cirkulære og rektangulære låseskærms-widgets. Apple Watch-komplikationer til alle urskivstile er også inkluderet. **FULDSTÆNDIG PRIVAT — DESIGNET SÅDAN** StepNudge læser dit skridtantal direkte fra Apple Helbred på din egen enhed. Dine helbredsdata forlader aldrig din telefon. Der er ingen konti, ingen servere, ingen cloud-synkronisering, ingen analyse, ingen reklamer og ingen sporing — nogensinde. Ikke nu, ikke i en fremtidig opdatering. **INTET ABONNEMENT** StepNudge er gratis at downloade og gratis at bruge. Ingen skjulte gebyrer, ingen premiumversion, ingen mersalg.
