Trekle turns your everyday steps into a real adventure. Pick a route — the Camino de Santiago, the Grand Canyon, the Tour de France or a fantasy journey — and every kilometre you actually walk moves you further along it. HOW IT WORKS • Trekle reads your walking distance from Apple Health • No GPS, no location tracking — every step counts, anywhere • Watch your progress on an illustrated route map WHAT'S WAITING • A catalogue of routes: local trips, world treks and fantasy journeys • Milestones with photos and stories of the places you pass • Celebrations for reached milestones and a grand finale at the finish • Statistics: daily averages, records, best weeks • A completion estimate based on your own pace • Milestone notifications (never at night) PRIVACY FIRST No sign-up, no e-mail. We read only daily walking-distance totals and never use them for anything but your progress along the route. No ads, no data selling. Lace up and set out — the first milestone is closer than you think.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Trekle at none against Walker's 1. Trekle also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
