Walkabout turns your everyday steps into a walk through the world's most iconic streets. Using real footage from Apple Maps' Look Around, Walkabout advances you along a curated walking route — through Tokyo, Paris, New York, London, Rome, or Madrid — based on the actual steps you take, tracked via Apple Health. No treadmill screens, no fake progress bars — just real photography of real streets, unlocked one step at a time. HOW IT WORKS • Pick a course: a landmark-dense loop through one of six cities • Walk in real life — your steps move you forward on the route • See where you are: each checkpoint shows an actual photo of that spot • Check your progress anytime from the home screen widget COURSES • Tokyo Loop — Shibuya, Meiji Jingu, Asakusa, Skytree, Ginza • Paris Loop — Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Notre-Dame • New York Loop — Times Square, Central Park, Wall Street • London Loop — Big Ben, Tower Bridge, the London Eye • Rome Historic Center Loop — Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, Colosseum • Madrid Historic Center Loop — Puerta del Sol, Plaza Mayor, Royal Palace Walkabout only reads your step count — nothing else.
