Yaoki takes its name from the Japanese proverb 七転び八起き — "fall down seven times, get up eight." It's a simple, private step tracker built around one idea: your streak should reflect your effort, not a missed sync or a forgotten phone. FEATURES • See today's step count at a glance, read from Apple Health • Shows steps, distance, active minutes, energy and flights climbed for each day • Track how many days in a row you've hit your goal • Edit your streak manually — if you walked but your phone stayed home, set the record straight • Clean, distraction-free design PRIVACY Yaoki reads step data from Apple Health only to show it to you. Your data stays on your device and in your own iCloud account — the developer never sees it. No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Get up one more time than you fall. Keep walking.
