Walking is good for you. It can also be a bit boring. Five Foot Way gives every step somewhere to go. Choose a building, then get on with your day. The steps you walk go straight into the building site on your island, and you watch it rise: a bare plot, then scaffolding, then walls, and finally a finished building with its lights coming on. YOUR WALK, IN BRICKS • Steps come from your iPhone and Apple Health, including your Apple Watch • Progress is measured against your own usual pace, so a good day for you is a good day for your city • Build one thing at a time, and see exactly how far each walk got it A CITY WORTH WALKING FOR • Kopitiams, kampung houses, a mosque, an Art Deco cinema, a town hall, glass towers, a Ferris wheel and many more, each modelled for itself • Homes bring residents, and residents carry your island from Village to Town, City and Metropolis • Each era unlocks new things to build • Residents have things to say about what you build, and what they wish you would DAY AND NIGHT • The island follows your own clock • After dark the windows, street lamps and signs light up • A relaxed soundtrack for mornings, sunny afternoons, evening lamps and starlit nights ALWAYS WITH YOU • A Home Screen widget shows your city and today's progress without opening the app • Save a picture, or a video of your island growing, to your photo library PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no ads, no tracking • Your step data never leaves your iPhone • Free, with nothing to buy Five Foot Way is named after the covered walkways in front of Malaysia's and Singapore's shophouses, where towns have always been walked, not driven.
