We like walking. We also like beer. BeerSteps is the fitness app that answers the one question your other apps never thought to ask: how many beers did I earn today? BeerSteps connects to Apple Health and pulls your step data from your iPhone and Apple Watch, so your count is always accurate and up to date. From there, the math is simple: steps become calories, calories become beers. Pick your beer, set your goal, and start walking. TRACK YOUR WAY Choose how BeerSteps works for you. Track beers earned all day long, only during a specific walk or hike, or both. Start a session when you head out, and end it when you get back. BeerSteps gives you a full breakdown of that workout, including steps, distance, elevation gain, time, and calories burned. YOUR BEER, YOUR RULES Not all beers are created equal. Select from a range of beer styles, from a light beer to a hefty craft, each with its own calorie target. The heavier the beer, the more steps it takes to earn it. Choose what you're working toward. HISTORY THAT MATTERS Every session is saved. Review past walks and hikes with full stats, track your daily step history, and see how your beer earnings add up over time. Histories can be deleted individually or all at once. SYNCS WITH APPLE HEALTH BeerSteps reads directly from HealthKit, so it stays in sync with your Apple Watch and any other health devices. If you walk without your phone, your steps still count. Whether you're a daily walker, a weekend hiker, or just someone who thinks fitness apps take themselves too seriously... BeerSteps is for you.
