WALKING JUST GOT A LOT MORE FUN. Meet your Lumen, a living gem companion with his own personality and a unique name. Hatch him with your steps, then take him outside with you. Open the map and your everyday walk becomes a treasure hunt. Find coins, ingredients, toy parts, sticker packs, and other discoveries waiting around you. Lumen comes along for the adventure. When he spots something worth going after, he can suggest it to you. Go get it, and he notices. Take on optional daily quests when you want something extra to do, or simply explore at your own pace. Suddenly, 10,000 steps doesn’t feel like 10,000 steps. You’re too busy wondering what’s around the next corner. YOUR OWN LITTLE WALKING CHEERLEADER Lumen isn’t waiting at home for you to finish your steps. He’s part of the walk. He encourages you toward your next step checkpoint, celebrates when you reach it, and responds to how your walking has been going. Whether you’re having a huge walking day or getting moving again after a quieter stretch, Lumen is there rooting for you. You decide how far you want to go. He just makes getting there more fun. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS See how you’re moving today and how your week is shaping up. Track your daily and weekly steps, walking and running distance, active calories, goals, and personal records, all in one place. WHAT YOU FIND OUTSIDE MATTERS AT HOME Bring your discoveries back to the Biodome, your home base with different buildings for you and Lumen. Take ingredients to the Kitchen to make meals. Bring toy parts to the Toy Factory to craft toys. Your steps also generate Power for cooking and crafting. Meals and toys help you care for Lumen and keep him happy. Feed him, play with him, clean up after him, and keep his space tidy. A happier Lumen produces more in-game coins. MAKE YOUR LUMEN YOURS Use your coins to unlock spectacular headpieces, accessories, skins, emotes, and backgrounds. Change his look, find your favorites, and create a Lumen that feels completely yours. OPEN PACKS. BUILD COLLECTIONS. Sticker packs can be found while you explore or purchased with in-game coins. Open them to collect colorful stickers across themed albums. Chase the ones you’re missing and complete your collections. Send Lumen on expeditions for more chances at rarer sticker packs. Traveling through supported locations in the U.S. or Canada? Discover Destination Stickers featuring your Lumen at cities and landmarks you visit, turning places you explored together into collectible memories. WANT A LITTLE COMPETITION? Join weekly leagues with daily step goals from 5K to 15K and compete alongside other walkers. Take on the monthly league for an even bigger challenge, or keep walking entirely at your own pace. THE GOAL IS TO HELP YOU WALK MORE. THE MAGIC IS MAKING YOU WANT TO. TreasureSteps gives every walk something to look forward to. One more treasure to find. One more corner to explore. One more thing to bring home for Lumen. One more sticker you’re missing. One more checkpoint that suddenly feels close enough to reach. And somewhere along the way, you look down and realize you walked a lot farther than you planned. Meet your Lumen and make your next walk something you actually look forward to. APPLE HEALTH & MOTION With your permission, TreasureSteps uses Motion & Fitness for live step updates and Apple Health (HealthKit) to read steps, walking and running distance, and active energy burned, including activity recorded by Apple Watch. Your step count is also used to generate in-game Power. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula
Oz Steps
Read full descriptionHide full description
Oz Steps is a pedometer story app inspired by the public-domain Oz book. Your real steps move Dorothy along a short story route from Kansas to the Emerald City, with silver shoes, curious companions, and small collectible relics appearing as your step count grows. The first half of the walk ends at the green gate. A one-time in-app purchase unlocks Return Road, the second half of the route: the Witch's road, the Golden Cap, Glinda, and the final walk back home. The paid route is designed as a story extension, not a subscription or external service. Features: - Pedometer progress through a literary story route - The first half of the Oz walk - Optional Return Road unlock for the second half - Original English app text written for this app - Public-domain book-inspired Oz framing - Silver shoes, not movie-specific ruby slippers - No account, no ads, no tracking, no location collection
