Hourly Steps Reminder is a fun, easy-to-use Apple Watch (not iPhone) app designed to help you stay active throughout the day. The idea is simple: set a step goal for each hour, and if you haven’t hit it yet, your watch can give you a gentle nudge before the hour’s up. You’re always in control - choose how many steps you want to aim for, which hours you plan to be active, and whether or not you want notifications. Add the complication to your watch face to track your progress throughout each hour. Hourly Steps Reminder is lightweight and battery-friendly, so it won't drain your watch. Stay active, stay energized, and make every hour count - right from your wrist! Note: Due to watchOS requirements, you must add the complication to your active watch face in order to receive notifications.
