Miss a week, catch a cold, smash a long run: your plan recalibrates overnight so tomorrow's session fits the runner you are today.

Turn walking into a habit you actually keep. WalkQuest times your walks, tracks your daily streak, and coaches interval walks with clear brisk and easy cues you feel right on your phone. No Apple Watch, no GPS, no chest strap. Start a walk with the built in timer, or log one you already took. Set a daily distance goal and watch the ring fill. Distance comes from what you enter, or is estimated from your walk time and a walking speed you set, so it works even without GPS. What you get: - In app walk timer with a big, clear clock - Manual walk log for walks you took earlier - Interval walks with warm up, brisk, easy, and cool down cues, felt as haptics and shown on screen, with an optional sound - A library of ready made interval sessions from beginner to challenging, plus a builder for your own - Daily streaks with a five week calendar so you can see every walk - Distance goals with a progress ring for today and the week - Badges for streaks, distance, time, and interval work - A new walking challenge every month with live progress - Full history plus CSV and PDF export you can keep or share - Syncs across iPhone, iPad, and Mac with iCloud Free and Pro: Free includes the walk timer, the manual log, daily streaks, distance goals, and your last 30 days of history.
