WatchSteps keeps your daily step goal front and center with beautiful complications, iOS widgets, a responsive watch app, and a lightweight iPhone companion. It reads your step data directly from Health and never shares it with anyone else. Highlights • Corner complications: Curved progress gauges that follow the shape of your watch face corners. • iOS widgets: Lock screen and home screen widgets show your progress at a glance. • Multiple complication styles: Rings, gauges, inline text, and corner gauges for any watch face. • Bidirectional sync: Change settings on iPhone or Watch — they sync instantly to both devices. • Personal style: Pick colors and custom goals that match your aesthetic. • Privacy first: Reads steps only, requires no account, stores everything privately on-device. • Battery friendly: Background delivery keeps data fresh without draining your watch. How it works 1. Install WatchSteps on Apple Watch (watchOS 9+) and the paired iPhone (iOS 16+). 2. Grant Health permissions for "Steps." 3. Configure your goal and colors on either device — settings sync automatically. 4. Add widgets to your lock screen or home screen for quick progress checks. 5. Add the complication style you love to your favorite watch faces. Complication Styles • Circular: Ring progress around your step count. • Corner: Curved gauge that follows the watch face corner. • Modular: Large step count with progress indicator. • Inline: Compact text for slim complication slots. Privacy • We read step data from HealthKit solely to display it to you. • WatchSteps never uploads, tracks, or shares personal information. • No accounts, no analytics, no tracking.
