No account to create, no cloud to sync, nothing to sell. StepQuest talks to Apple Health and no one else. WHY 7,000? A 2025 systematic review and meta-analysis in The Lancet Public Health found that 7,000 steps a day was associated with meaningful health benefits and may be a more realistic target than 10,000. StepQuest is built around making that goal feel achievable.
