Stepping Stone is a step counter, designed to help you as much as it possibly can on your journey of improvement: FREE, WITH NO CATCH Every feature in this app is free. There are no subscriptions, no paywalls, and no ads anywhere. The only things for sale are optional cosmetic skins, a way to support the app if you ever want to, never a requirement. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Steps are counted on your device, using your phone's built-in motion sensor. No account, no sign-in, no analytics, no tracking. We never see, sell, or share your data. We couldn't even if we wanted to, because nothing leaves your phone. MAKE IT YOURS Skins re-theme the entire app to match your personality. You can preview any skin for free before deciding to buy it. JOIN THE COMMUNITY Stepping Stone is solely made by me, and I think health should be free and honest. Join the Discord server (in Settings) to shape what comes next, including community-designed skins. WHAT IT DOES • Responsive step count that ticks with every step • Daily goal with a progress ring you can set to any target • Distance, calories, and walking-time estimates • Recent-day history at a glance • Four full app skins (one free, three optional) • Light and dark modes for every skin • Works entirely offline WHAT IT DOESN'T DO • No ads • No subscriptions • No account required • No data collection Good luck out there. Remember to take things one day at a time :)
