Tally Steps vs Pedometer.se

One number, one ring, one goal. Tally Steps shows you how far you have walked today and nothing else. No coaching. No streaks. No badges for getting out of bed. It reads the step count your iPhone and Apple Watch already record, and it draws it plainly. TODAY A single ring against your daily goal, with distance and active energy underneath. Drag the goal, or type an exact one. THE MONTH, AND THE YEAR Every day as a square, darker the further you walked. Tap any day to see it, page back through earlier months, or open the year to find one. ON YOUR WRIST A watch app, and three complications for the corner, circular and rectangular slots — so the number is on your watch face without opening anything. WIDGETS Small and medium for the Home Screen, plus Lock Screen widgets. They keep up in the background. LIGHT OR DARK Follows your phone, or pin it either way in Settings. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No sign-up. No analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs. Nothing about your activity leaves your device — the app reads Health, stores a copy on your phone so the widgets can draw, and that is the whole of it. FREE The whole app, with nothing held back and nothing to unlock. If you would like to support it, Settings has a tip jar. It is entirely optional and changes nothing about the app. Requires access to Health for steps, walking and running distance, and active energy. Tally Steps only reads; it never writes anything back.

A simple, free step counter. No ads, no account, and nothing leaves your phone. Open it and it counts. Today's steps, big and easy to read. WHAT YOU GET • Today's steps, large and clear, in light or dark • Your week at a glance, with a daily average • A goal if you want one: a ring around the number fills as you walk • Calories and distance if you want them: enter your weight, and optionally your height. The calories shown are the extra from your steps only, never an inflated whole-day figure • Your pace while you walk • An option to keep the screen on while you walk WHAT YOU DO NOT GET • No ads. Not now, not later. There is no paid version, because there is nothing to remove • No account, no e-mail, no password • No tracking and no analytics. The app never connects to the internet • No sounds, no confetti, no nagging HOW IT COUNTS Your iPhone counts your steps all day on its own motion chip. Pedometer reads that number and shows it, so it uses no battery beyond the screen and needs nothing running in the background. ONE PERMISSION Motion & Fitness, which lets the app read the iPhone's step count. Nothing else. Your history stays on your phone and follows your phone's own backup. Made by Tentmaker Sweden.
