WalkPadLog

You're walking on your pad, but your Apple Watch shows zero steps. That's because your hands are on the keyboard instead of swinging. WalkPadLog fixes this in 3 seconds: read the distance from your pad's display, enter it, done. No Bluetooth, no pairing, no sync issues. APPLE HEALTH INTEGRATION Every session is saved as an Indoor Walking Workout in Apple Health. Distance, steps, and workout minutes count toward your Activity Rings, even when your Apple Watch misses your steps at the desk. If you're wearing your Apple Watch during the session, your real heart rate is automatically attached to the workout. ACCURATE CALORIES No more flat estimates. WalkPadLog calculates your burned calories from your weight, pace and your pad's incline, using the MET formula from the Compendium of Physical Activities plus the grade term of the ACSM walking equation. Set your weight once in Settings or sync it from Apple Health, and your Move ring will reflect realistic values instead of a rough guess. BUILD YOUR STREAK Set your walking days and build a daily streak. Missed a day? Your streak resets, and a friendly reminder helps you start fresh, instead of pretending you're still on track. Smart reminders only notify you on days when you haven't walked yet. Motivating without being annoying. UNLOCK ACHIEVEMENTS 12 milestone achievements named after famous routes around the world: First Steps (1 km) → Marathon (42 km) → Paris to London (340 km) → Trans-Siberian Railway (3,500 km) Each achievement turns your daily walking pad routine into a long-distance journey. WORKS WITH ANY WALKING PAD Compatible with every walking pad, with or without its own app, flat or inclined. No Bluetooth required. Just enter your distance and you're done. 100% PRIVATE All data stays on your device. No accounts, no servers, no analytics. Works completely offline.
