The Japanese interval walking method, coached from your wrist. Three minutes fast, three minutes slow. Backed by research, loved by millions — and almost impossible to pace correctly on your own. Just Walk is the coach: haptic cues on your Apple Watch keep your fast intervals actually fast, without audio, without looking at your phone. WHAT MAKES JUST WALK DIFFERENT • CADENCE COACHING — Live steps-per-minute with a target band for every fast interval. Fall off the pace and your wrist tells you. Hit it and you'll know. • THE 4-WEEK PROGRAM — Start at 3 cycles, and the plan adapts to how you actually walk: finish strong and it levels up; struggle and it repeats the week. Miss a day? The program waits for you. • WE NOTICE REAL LIFE — Walked briskly to the train for 14 minutes? That counts. Just Walk credits walking you did without opening the app. • HOW IT'S GOING — Two honest numbers. Showing Up counts the walking you did. Ease watches whether walks are getting easier for your body — compared to one person only: you, weeks ago. Most weeks it says Steady, because that's the truth. Not a grade, not a medical measurement — a mirror we hold steady. • STREAKS THAT FORGIVE — Daily step streaks with automatic shields for the days life happens. Free for everyone. ALSO IN JUST WALK • Step tracking that matches Apple Health • Home-screen and lock-screen widgets • Fat Burn Zone walks with live heart-rate guidance • Post-meal walks (10 minutes, blood-sugar friendly) • Full Apple Watch app with complications TRY THE COACHING FREE Every interval walk comes with live cadence coaching — including your free weekly walk. Week 1 of the program is free too, and your How it's going numbers are free, always. Just Walk Pro unlocks the full 4-week program, unlimited coached walks, and the story behind your numbers: full history, your weekly Ease readings, and a note from your coach about why they moved — with a 7-day free trial on the annual plan.
