Farther vs StepHive

Farther helps you understand your walking behavior over time. Most step apps focus on daily goals, streaks, and isolated high-step days. Farther looks beyond individual days to reveal the walking patterns that emerge over weeks and months. Using your Apple Health step data, Farther analyzes your recent movement history and calculates your Walking Baseline, a number that reflects your overall walking behavior. Your baseline is placed within a Lifestyle Band, helping you understand where your long-term walking pattern sits today and how it changes over time. Features: • Walking Baseline based on long-term movement patterns • Lifestyle Bands that provide context for your activity level • Daily movement analysis - steps(as of now) • Trend tracking across weeks and months • Privacy-first design using your Apple Health data Farther is not designed around streaks, badges, or daily pressure. It is designed to help you understand how you move through life.
