Every step grows a world. Tiny Worlds turns your daily walk into a living, little diorama. Your steps are the only fuel — walk, and a tiny world grows, one stage at a time, until it becomes something you keep forever. No streaks. No guilt. Nothing withers if you miss a day. Your worlds wait patiently for you. HOW IT WORKS • Walk — your steps power the world you're growing. That's the whole engine. • Grow — reach your daily step goal and your world climbs to its next stage. Six stages, from a bare seed to a thriving little world. • Keep — finished worlds become keepsakes in your collection, each saved with the steps you walked and the days you tended it. A CALM COLLECTION Every world you plant rolls its own unique look, so no two you grow are ever quite the same. Fill a quiet little museum of the places your walking has made — grouped and waiting, never demanding. WORLDS TO GROW Start with everyday worlds — rainforest, grassland, savanna — then discover exotic ones like coral reefs, wetlands, and volcanic lands. POWERED BY YOUR STEPS Tiny Worlds reads your step count from Apple Health (iPhone and Apple Watch) to grow your worlds — that's all it needs. Your health data stays on your device. GENTLE BY DESIGN Optional, quiet reminders when a world is ready to grow — and nothing more. No badges to chase, no leaderboards, no pressure. A calm companion, not a taskmaster. WORLD KEEPER An optional subscription for when you want more to discover: unlock the exotic worlds and keep your whole collection safe and synced across your devices. Every step grows a world. Start with the one you'll take next. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
