Don't just walk. Win. Boop is the step-tracking app that actually makes you want to move. No guilt trips. No boring progress rings. Just a daily race between your capybara (Chip) and a crocodile rival (Chomp) that turns your everyday steps into something you look forward to. Boop requires an active subscription. New users get a free trial. HOW IT WORKS Every morning, your race begins. Boop takes your daily step goal and breaks it into hourly checkpoints throughout the day. Beat Chomp to a checkpoint? Mini victory. Fall behind? No big deal. Chomp's position on the track always shows you exactly where you need to be to get back on pace. The race is not over until the jungle sun sets. It is not about perfection. It is about momentum. WHY PEOPLE LOVE BOOP Most step apps show you a number and hope for the best. Boop gives you a reason to care. The hourly race format means you always have another checkpoint to chase, and every one you hit feels like a small win. That steady rhythm of micro-victories is what keeps people moving day after day. WHAT'S INCLUDED IN YOUR SUBSCRIPTION - Daily races with hourly checkpoints throughout the day - Smart goal-setting based on your real walking history - Race with friends and family on the vine leaderboard - Push alerts when Chomp is gaining ground - Streak tracking to build long-term habits - Syncs with Apple Health and your favorite wearables THE CHARACTERS Chip is your laid-back capybara racing partner. Chomp is his best friend and biggest rival. Together, they turn the simple act of walking into a daily jungle adventure. FUN FIRST. FITNESS SECOND. Boop was built on a simple idea: if moving feels fun, you will do more of it. No hardcore fitness culture. No shame. Just a capybara, a crocodile, and your everyday steps. Your race starts tomorrow morning. Chip is warming up. Chomp is talking trash.
