Know exactly when it’s time to replace your shoes. TreadTracker automatically tracks how many miles you’ve walked or run in each pair of shoes using step distance data from Apple Health—no manual entry needed. Whether you’re a casual walker or serious runner, worn-out shoes can lead to pain and injury. TreadTracker makes it easy to stay on top of your shoe mileage so you can switch out your footwear before problems start. Features: • Accurate mileage tracking using step distance, not just workouts • Add and manage multiple shoes with start dates • Visual mileage progress bar so you know when shoes are nearing their limit • iCloud sync support keeps your shoe data backed up • No shoe type required — just mileage-based simplicity • Private and secure — your Health data stays on your device Why TreadTracker? You shouldn’t have to guess when it’s time for new shoes. After experiencing foot and joint pain from wearing shoes past 500 miles, we built TreadTracker to make sure you don’t have to. With HealthKit integration, your total distance is automatically updated in the background—so you can focus on moving, not logging. Built for simplicity. Powered by Apple Health.
