A clear pedometer people keep for years and praise for history, trends, and cross-device sync. Many are annoyed that on opening it pushes games and invites to a social feature instead of a simple step number. Accuracy is close to the watch, but sometimes numbers differ from a spouse's on the same route.
Gelobt
Years of reliability, step history and trends, cross-device sync, accuracy close to Apple Watch, non-aggressive subscription
Kritik
Extra games and social features on opening, many taps to a simple step number, watch feature vanished after an update, occasional number discrepancies
Für wen: People who want a reliable step tracker with history and trends and can ignore the extra features

Step Counter Maipo gets the basics right: it counts steps without manual start and without intrusive ads, and for many the data matches Apple Health. The weak spots are narrow: it sometimes adds phantom steps at rest, stumbles on stairs, and lacks proper Apple Watch support.
Gelobt
It counts automatically, with no ads or subscription traps, and the numbers often match Health exactly.
Kritik
It sometimes racks up phantom steps while you sit, misreads stairs and climbs, and does not really work with Apple Watch.
Für wen: People who carry their phone and want a simple, honest pedometer with no ads or paywalls.

A simple clean pedometer with no ads, no signup and no clutter, with a widget that Apple Fitness lacks. The main complaint is accuracy: for some users the count differs from Health and Apple Watch by 500-2000 steps, and updates sometimes lag. But for many the numbers match, and it runs without draining the battery.
Gelobt
Fast, lightweight, no ads, no signup and no popups, it does exactly one thing. The step widget missing from Apple Fitness was found by many via Reddit and loved.
Kritik
For some users the count differs from Health and Apple Watch by 500-2000 steps, and it sometimes overcounts when the phone is shaken. Updates occasionally lag and you cannot view a longer time range.
Für wen: For anyone wanting a minimalist free pedometer with a widget and no ads on iPhone. Those needing perfect step-by-step accuracy should cross-check with Health.

A detailed ad-free pedometer people value for rich stats and the motivation to hit a daily goal. Still, the count isn't always accurate: phone numbers differ from Apple Watch, steps sometimes vanish retroactively, or it logs 1000 steps in a minute. After iOS updates there are bugs where the app has to be reopened.
Gelobt: Detailed ad-free stats, motivation to hit a daily goal, simple and visual, free
Kritik: Count differs from Apple Watch, steps vanish retroactively, sometimes 1000 steps in a minute, bugs after iOS updates, poor at counting stairs
Für wen: People who want a detailed ad-free pedometer and aren't chasing perfect accuracy

The app measures distance by GPS rather than a pedometer, so people value it for walks and hikes with a route map. Some complain the GPS gives inconsistent numbers on the same route and that distance keeps climbing if you stop without pausing. A separate pain point is the hard-to-cancel subscription and charges after deleting the app.
Gelobt: Route map at the end of a walk, steady GPS distance, motivation to walk, free version is enough
Kritik: GPS gives different numbers on the same route, adds distance when you stop without pausing, subscription hard to cancel, no manual stride length setting
Für wen: People who walk and hike and want to see the route on a map, not just a step number

The app turns your walks into a journey across Middle-earth, and fans love it. Automatic step accuracy is shaky: for many the counter caps at 1 mile a day, and readings drift from the real distance walked and from Health. The main frustration is not battery but the paywall on nearly everything interesting.
Gelobt: Tolkien theme with details from the books and films, achievements, and following the route together with friends and family.
Kritik: Without a subscription the counter is capped at 1 mile a day, distance is often inaccurate and diverges from the phone, and tracking friends or lifting the cap costs money.
Für wen: Lord of the Rings fans who want a playful reason to walk more and don't mind paying for the full route.

A simple pedometer people use for years, but recent versions draw complaints about freezes, glitches, and slow counting instead of live. Steps don't always update in real time and sometimes roll back, and Apple Watch sync is manual. Notably, shaking the phone counts as steps, so the count can be gamed.
Gelobt: Simple and clear, reliable for years, accurate step count, easy to use
Kritik: Freezes and glitches after updates, steps not live and roll back, manual Apple Watch sync, shaking the phone adds steps, ads interrupt workouts
Für wen: People who want a simple pedometer and can tolerate delayed updates and occasional glitches

Competing with friends and family is addictive and genuinely motivates more walking. But the step count often lies: the app shows 124 steps instead of 13k from Health, and on a smartwatch without the phone in your pocket the count freezes. Fitbit and Garmin sync is shaky and background counting holds up poorly.
Gelobt: A fun competition with friends and family, with avatars, bonks and photo updates, really nudges you to move more. It has a BeReal-like vibe and pulls you in.
Kritik: Steps often disagree with Health and go missing, and Fitbit and Garmin sync works only sometimes. Too much is paywalled: a full day, history, upgrades, you pay for each separately.
Für wen: For groups of friends and families on iPhone with Apple Watch who want a gamified step competition. Garmin, Fitbit and Samsung owners will suffer from the sync issues.

A GPS run-and-walk tracker with a route map and voice cues, praised for simplicity and motivation but with much locked behind premium. Distance accuracy wanders: people report the goal falsely triggering a few minutes in and recordings cutting out with lost distance. There's no account by default, so switching phones can easily wipe all progress.
Gelobt: Simple and visual, route map, voice cues, motivation to work out, free core
Kritik: Much behind premium, inaccurate distance with the goal triggering too early, recording cuts out and loses distance, no profile so progress is easily lost, voice interrupts music
Für wen: Runners and walkers who want a simple GPS tracker with a map and are willing to pay for the full set

Stepz is a working pedometer that people keep for years, and the main irritant here is not accuracy but a wall of ads and a recent request to link a card to a free app. Some days show zero steps or gaps in counting, and people are reluctant to pay for the ad-free subscription because of the price.
Gelobt: Simple and reliable, it shows steps and averages for years and pleasantly motivates daily movement.
Kritik: Too many ads, sometimes whole strings of them, occasional zero-step days for several days in a row, and the free version asks for card details.
Für wen: People who want a years-proven simple pedometer and can tolerate ads or pay once to remove them.

A gamified space pedometer with years-long devoted fans: steps fuel your rocket and unlock planets, and it genuinely motivates walking. But it counts only phone steps and won't pull data from Apple Watch or Fitbit even via Health, so steps are lost without the phone in your pocket. Recent updates added intrusive multi-minute ads.
Gelobt: An addictive game about planets and space that keeps you walking for years, pleasant visuals, and co-op play with friends.
Kritik: Won't sync with Apple Watch and Fitbit, counts only phone steps, more and more long ads, pay-to-win elements, and glitches on veteran accounts.
Für wen: Those who like game-style motivation and always carry their phone, not relying on a watch.

CashWalk is more honest than many of its niche peers: it genuinely counts steps through Health and hands out gift cards. But accuracy drifts, the counter freezes at zero, there is no Apple Watch sync, and a payout can be blocked on security grounds. Battery and background counting are not blamed here, but points expire every month.
Gelobt: Amazon gift cards really do arrive, it pulls from Apple Health, and it noticeably motivates you to move.
Kritik: Points expire monthly, the counter freezes at zero, there is no Apple Watch support, ads are everywhere, and there are seven taps before each video.
Für wen: People who carry their phone in a pocket, are fine watching ads, and are glad to get a gift card for walking.

A solid social idea for families and friends, genuinely motivating people to stick together and compete. But accuracy lets it down: the count differs from watches by thousands of steps, updates lag for hours, and without the phone or watch on you steps do not accumulate at all. Fitbit and Garmin sync sometimes fails, and support goes silent.
Gelobt: A great way to stay connected with family and friends and compete on steps. Simple to use, and it truly motivates you to walk extra for first place.
Kritik: The count differs from watches by thousands of steps and updates with hours of delay. Account logouts, no widget or chat, and Fitbit and Garmin sync is finicky.
Für wen: For families and groups on iPhone with Apple Watch who care about social motivation. Those wanting an accurate tracker or using Garmin and Fitbit will feel constrained.

One of the best ways to put steps on your Apple Watch face, valued for being ad-free and simple. The main pains are technical: the complication updates with a lag and sometimes shows zero until you tap it, and the numbers on watch, app, and Health differ by a couple thousand for some.
Gelobt: A clean, ad-free counter that puts steps and your goal right on the watch face. Many say it restored convenience after Fitbit left iOS.
Kritik: The complication updates with a lag and sometimes shows zero until tapped, watch/phone/Health numbers diverge, and the goal cannot be changed from the iPhone without a watch.
Für wen: Apple Watch owners who want a simple, ad-free step counter on the face and can tolerate a slight update lag.

A simple pedometer that shuts itself off and drops large chunks of steps, especially on stairs. It runs off a permanently active screen and GPS, so it drains the battery hard and the daily auto-reset does not always fire. Accuracy wanders: the same route gives a different mileage each time.
Gelobt: Clean, easy interface with nothing extra. Good for measuring a single walk or a dog stroll, and some find its count more accurate than rivals.
Kritik: The app stops on its own and resets the count, and it misses steps on stairs and in normal walking. GPS eats the charge quickly and the daily auto-reset is unreliable.
Für wen: People who want a bare-bones measure of a single walk and are fine starting the count by hand and living with battery loss.

A long-standing pedometer many loved for years, but the recent Apple Watch redesign removed familiar features and sparked a wave of frustration. People complain the count differs between phone, watch, and Health, sometimes by a lot, and that the watch complication drains the battery fast. There are harsh reviews about subscription charges with no refund.
Gelobt: Years of habit and simplicity, confetti motivation on hitting the goal, basic count without a subscription
Kritik: Redesign removed Apple Watch features, count differs across phone watch and Health, watch complication drains the battery fast, disputed subscription charges, lost streaks from count glitches

MySteps is a pure pedometer with no rewards, and the main gripe is that an update forced it into a paid subscription. Accuracy draws complaints: it counts intermittently and consistently undershoots by two or three thousand steps a day versus other counters. There is no history for past days and no breakdown for brisk walking.
Gelobt: A smooth, easy interface with no intrusive ads that pleasantly motivates you to exercise.
Kritik: It went fully paid after an update, undercounts by two or three thousand steps a day, does not show past days, and does not save your step goal.
Für wen: People who want a simple, clean pedometer with no rewards or ads and are willing to pay a subscription.

It does exactly what it promises and works well with Apple Watch, when it works. The weak spot is sync: for some users widgets and watch show yesterday's steps, the count differs by multiples (10k versus one thousand), and sometimes data is not recorded for months. A separate pain is that ads appear even for paying subscribers.
Gelobt: It does exactly what it claims without extra complexity and pairs well with Apple Watch. It keeps the step count when you carry the phone and is handy for sending stats to a doctor.
Kritik: Sync lets it down: widgets and watch show yesterday's steps, the count differs by multiples, and sometimes data is not recorded for months. Ads intrude mid-workout and remain even after paying for a subscription.
Für wen: For iPhone and Apple Watch users who want a simple reliable pedometer and will pay extra to remove ads. Those with flaky watch sync should test it themselves.

Walker counts steps in the background without manual start and reads distance decently, which longtime users appreciate. But it has a chronic ailment: the counter freezes at zero for days, then backfills the missed data later, and some steps never get counted at all.
Gelobt: It runs in the background with no start-stop, offers clear hourly graphs and decent distance accuracy.
Kritik: It periodically stops counting and shows zeros for days, loses some steps, and needs a phone restart to come back to life.

One of the oldest counters with a huge loyal base, but accuracy is shaky: people say distance is overstated, steps climb while driving, and totals differ from Apple Watch by thousands. After updates some users lost their entire mileage history.
Gelobt: Years of reliability and habit: people keep it for years, rack up millions of steps, and love the simplicity.
Kritik: There is no driving mode, so false steps pile up on the road, you cannot set stride length, and updates have wiped accumulated history.

A GPS walk tracker focused on the route rather than the step count. The tracking itself gets praise, but account registration simply fails for many, and distance sometimes lies badly and draws in extra kilometres. What the one-off purchase gives and what is free is described unclearly.
Gelobt: Accurate real-time logging of route, distance, speed and elevation gain. The free version is enough for many, and the interface is friendly and handy for walking and running routes.
Kritik: Account registration often hangs and never completes. Distance is sometimes inflated and shows places you never went, and hitting stop can wipe the whole track. The line between free and paid and the point of the one-off purchase are unclear.
Für wen: Walkers and hikers who want a route track with distance and elevation, not a step counter.

Walkmeter neatly maps your route, steps and calories during a walk, and within a session the data is reasonable. But outside the workout the numbers drift, weight entry in pounds is broken, and the free promise runs into a three-day trial.
Gelobt: During a walk it is handy to see route, distance, steps and calories, with a pause button for a breather.
Kritik: After a session the total mileage turns absurd like 1,124 miles, weight in pounds is impossible to enter, and the free access ends after three days.

A veteran counter with a manual workout start rather than fully automatic counting. The main flaw after updates: it pauses itself and never resumes, so people open it to find zero steps. Syncing with Apple Health and Apple Watch drops out for some users.
Gelobt: Long-standing habit and convenience: slip the phone in your pocket and go. Users value the time, calorie, and distance tracking.
Kritik: Auto-start and auto-pause are unreliable, the counter stops on its own, history sometimes resets, and support does not answer emails.

A social pedometer with groups and bots for competitions that motivates walking but syncs poorly with Apple Watch and Garmin, losing thousands of steps. The count runs only through Apple Health rather than straight from the watch, hence the discrepancies. Separately troubling are suspicious pop-up ads like a fake virus warning and the fact that shaking the phone adds steps.
Gelobt: Motivation through groups and bots, competitions with friends, the habit of carrying the phone, fun to track progress
Kritik: Poor sync with Apple Watch and Garmin via Health, loses thousands of steps, suspicious virus-scare ads, shaking the phone inflates steps, shifting bot algorithm

But the experience is uneven: for others steps land on the wrong days or reset on Fridays, the voice mixes up miles and kilometers, and complaints swirl around subscription charges with no way to cancel.
Gelobt: A pleasant look, accurate step and workout counting for some people, and handy pace and distance views.

Argus long outgrew being a pedometer, but step counting is exactly what started breaking after updates: it disappears overnight, loses five hundred to two thousand steps, and sometimes stops counting entirely. The developer keeps stripping features like heart rate and workouts, and support stays silent. Battery and background are not blamed, the trouble is lost accuracy and abandonment.
Gelobt: A rich set of health tools built over years, a comfortable interface, and a weight, nutrition, and activity log all in one place.

But the app has fallen behind: widgets broke after iOS 18, accuracy dropped to a third of real steps for some, it doesn't count treadmill work, and it pulls watch data slowly. Aggressive off-topic ads also spoil the experience.
Gelobt: Reliable counting for long-time users, a simple interface, handy history, and the ability to go without a watch.
Kritik: Widgets don't work after iOS 18, steps are sharply underreported for some, treadmill isn't counted, data is lost after updates, and there are pushy off-topic ads.

Gelobt: Competing with friends and family on steps is fun, and the interface is pleasant and lively.

Accuracy really dropped, plus there are lots of ads, some indecent, that are hard to exit. Battery and background are not blamed, all the negativity is about accuracy and ads.
Gelobt: Simple and motivating to move, and it once was accurate with a handy weekly overview of steps by day.

A charming idea: a dog on your Apple Watch face cheers your steps and motivates you to walk. But the tech stumbles: the complication shows the pet as a white silhouette or vanishes entirely after iOS updates, and step counts are consistently off by a couple thousand for some.
Gelobt: The dog on the watch face genuinely motivates walking, and the breed often matches your own pet. For those where it works, pleasing the pup every day feels rewarding.
Kritik: After iOS updates the dog disappears or turns into a white silhouette, the app crashes on newer iPhones, and step counts can run thousands short.

But the counting wobbles: readings differ between two phones by more than a thousand steps, distance and calories run off a wrong stride, and history gets scrambled when the time zone changes. The biggest sting is that step history is now locked behind a subscription.
Gelobt: A simple clear interface, readable trends and charts, and for some, years of help hitting a daily goal.

A simple pedometer with calories, water and goals, but for many the counting simply does not start: you walk for an hour and the counter stays at zero. The interface confuses newcomers, calories show as zero, and the app constantly begs for a rating. Reviews barely touch accuracy versus Apple Health or background counting, because basic counting often does not work.
Gelobt: Simple and clear, an easy start for a beginner. It has step goals, water and calories in one place.
Kritik: For some users counting does not run at all: an hour of walking and the counter reads zero. Calories show as zero, the interface confuses, the app keeps begging for a rating, and there is no iPad support.
Für wen: For those wanting a basic free steps and water tracker, if it works for them. Accuracy sticklers and iPad owners should look elsewhere.

The app pays virtual coins for steps, but the real payout is tiny: people report two million steps for $1.75 worth of coins. Rewards are often lotteries and giveaways almost nobody wins, and gift-card prices in coins suddenly rise. Lots of ads and pop-ups, plus errors when trying to claim a reward.
Gelobt: Motivation to walk more, free to join, the idea of earning from steps
Kritik: Payouts are tiny, lottery rewards with almost no winners, gift-card prices keep rising, tons of ads and pop-ups, errors when claiming rewards
Für wen: People who want light motivation to walk, but should not count on real earnings

WeWard is not about pedometer accuracy, it is about rewards for walking, and that is exactly where it falls apart. Steps count unreliably, and converting them into currency either resets to zero or fails before midnight. Nobody really compares its measurement to Apple Health because the point here is something else.
Gelobt: The idea of turning walking into a game and the motivation to move for small rewards. Some people actually do get paid on time.
Kritik: The step-to-currency exchange rate is stingy, coins credit less than promised, conversions reset to zero, and Venmo or PayPal payouts often fail.
Für wen: People who want light gamified motivation to walk and are not counting on real income.

As a pedometer the app is barely discussed. Reviews revolve around misleading ads and double charges. People pay 20-35 dollars for promised tai chi and get a fasting tracker with no workouts. Step-count accuracy and Apple Health handling almost never come up, because few users get that far.
Gelobt: The tidy interface and the free fasting tracker won people over. The first days are full of support and motivation, and the start feels easy.
Kritik: Ads show interactive tai chi and workouts that are not in the app. Double charges and being billed again for a subscription after signing in, and refunds only come after threatening to complain.
Für wen: For people who just want a simple intermittent-fasting tracker and can ignore everything else. Not for anyone after a real pedometer or actual tai chi sessions.

CARROT hooks you with auctions and prizes for steps, but the counter itself stumbles: people see 18 steps when their Fitbit shows 11,000, and coins stay at zero. The real problem is not accuracy but that won gift cards never arrive and support stays silent.
Gelobt: The challenge and auction mechanics are addictive, and walking gets more interesting when a prize is on the line.
Kritik: The counter is wildly off, coins get stuck at zero, and promised prizes and gift cards simply never arrive even after complaints.
Für wen: People who want gamified motivation to walk and can live with the fact that real rewards may never show up.

A prettily designed steps-and-water app where water works but step counting is simply missing or shows zero for many. The widget will not refresh in the background, Apple Watch sync will not set up, and key features sit behind a paid subscription.
Gelobt: Users praise the clean minimalist design, the playful water reminders, and the auto-generated plan.
Kritik: Step counting often fails or shows zero, the widget will not update in the background, watch sync will not configure, and essentials are locked behind a paywall.
Für wen: People who care more about a good-looking water tracker with pleasant design and treat step counting as secondary.

A pedometer with a hard paywall: the free version stops counting at 3000 steps and pushes an upsell, even though the target is 10000. It only counts with the screen open, otherwise zero, and loses everything when the screen is off. Accuracy is middling and it badly undercounts distance on a bike.
Gelobt: Simple to set up and start, and it motivates some people to take more steps even at home. For a short walk within the limit it works fine.
Kritik: The 3000-step cap on the free version makes it useless for a full day, and buying the full version does not lift the cap or carry over data for some users. It only counts with the screen open and forgets settings after shutdown.
Für wen: People willing to buy the full version up front and to live with keeping the screen on.

A successor to the old Moves that counts steps way off: people carry the phone all day and get zeros or 50-1000 steps. It drains the battery even in low-power mode and idles at night for nothing. Many of the original's promised features are simply missing.
Gelobt: The familiar graphics from the original and the route logging of where you went and for how long. The return of a once-loved app is a joy in itself for old fans.
Kritik: The step count is badly undercounted and often zero, and bike rides and other activities are not recorded. Heavy battery drain, some features and screens are impossible to find, and ads show up even after a paid purchase.
Für wen: People nostalgic for the old Moves who care more about a route log than an accurate step count.

Moneywalk promises money for steps and sleep, but it cannot count steps properly and does not connect to Apple Watch, while all the earning comes down to endless ads. Accuracy is poor, the app freezes and takes forever to open, and accounts get locked before payout. This is about rewards, not measurement, and the rewards come hard.
Gelobt: It credits points even for sleep, gift cards sometimes arrive the same day, and there are many ways to earn.
Kritik: It miscounts steps and will not link to Apple Watch, the daily points cap is tiny, accounts get locked before withdrawal, ads are endless, and cards take weeks.
Für wen: Patient gift-card hunters willing to watch tons of ads for a slow reward.

The app promises walking for weight loss but handles counting poorly: it underreports steps and distance against two other trackers, doesn't count treadmill work, and won't let you edit data. Many are annoyed by the 'free' pitch behind a paid subscription and by lifetime purchases that stop working. For some the app simply crashes on launch.
Gelobt: Easy to get into from day one, a motivating format, and at a reasonable price it once satisfied long-time users.
Kritik: Underreports steps and distance, doesn't count treadmill, won't let you edit data, a 'free' pitch, breakage after payment, and crashes.
Für wen: Those who want a simple walking-for-weight-loss app on the phone and can tolerate limits and ads.

Unlike the pure scams, gift cards here actually arrive, but the time cost is absurd. About 100 coins for 10k steps, while a 10-dollar card needs 16k coins, so there is no getting there without surveys and watching ads. The step counting itself is inaccurate and loses some steps, and relentless ad popups finish it off.
Gelobt: Gift cards genuinely arrive, and some have already earned several 10-dollar ones. Auto-collect and low attention demands make it almost passive income.
Kritik: Payouts are tiny: about 100 coins for 10k steps, while a 10-dollar card needs 16k. Steps are counted inaccurately and go missing, league progression cuts off some rewards, and ad popups will not quit.
Für wen: For the patient who will walk a long time and grind surveys for small gift cards. Not for those expecting meaningful money or an accurate pedometer.

The step and GPS route tracker itself works decently, once you reach it. But usability is spoiled by aggressive monetization: a subscription screen with no close button must be bypassed by restarting, and without paying every tap meets a minute-long ad. Reviews barely rate accuracy, all attention is eaten by the fight with the subscription and ads.
Gelobt: It tracks steps, calories and miles neatly, and GPS route tracking is a particular favorite. It has useful reminders to move.
Kritik: The subscription screen has no close button and you must restart the app three times. The 9.99-per-week subscription feels like a rip-off, without paying every tap meets a minute-long ad, and GPS mode crashes.
Für wen: For the ad-tolerant who want a steps and route tracker and will pay to remove ads. Not for anyone infuriated by pushy subscriptions and popup clips.

Walking Tracker by GetFit shows routes and a walking plan, but the product is secondary: it is barely better than the built-in app. The real problem is money: a subscription is pushed immediately, cancellation fails, and people get charged 86-89 dollars with no refund.
Gelobt: Route suggestions and audio guidance during a walk help some people settle in and feel better.
Kritik: You must pay before seeing anything, subscription cancellation does not work, and 86-89 dollar charges are non-refundable.

Scrambly promises money for walking, but in practice it pushes you to install and buy games, while walking itself earns pennies. Steps either fail to count or reset, and cashing out runs into photo ID requirements and a message about logging in from another device. There is no talk of accuracy versus Apple Health, the whole focus is on earnings that barely work.
Gelobt: Many payout methods and the thrill of a growing balance. Sometimes payouts really do arrive.
Kritik: Real money only comes through installing and paying for games, support stays silent, cashing out demands a photo ID, and earned points get lost.
Für wen: Maybe fans of game offerwalls willing to endure ads for a few dollars.

GoWard promises money for steps, but the reality is harsh: a month of walking earns under a dollar, and PayPal cash-out constantly fails with a network error. Tiny amounts do not stack and expire, the counter freezes at zero, and support stays quiet.
Gelobt: For some the payout does go through, and the first few cents landing in PayPal are a pleasant surprise.
Kritik: Earnings are pennies, cash-out constantly breaks with a network error, small amounts expire, and you get nothing without watching ads.
Für wen: Essentially no one: it is weak as a step tracker and an illusion as an earner with cents you cannot withdraw.

The app promises coins for steps, but cashing out real money is nearly impossible: people save up for months and never reach the threshold, while the coins-per-step rate keeps getting cut. On top of that come frequent crashes within seconds of launch and a broken counter. As an honest pedometer it does not work.
Gelobt: The idea of gamified walking and reminders nudges people to move, and some enjoy the concept itself.
Kritik: Cashing out is unreachable, step rewards get slashed again and again, the app crashes within seconds, step accuracy is poor, and streaks get reset.
Für wen: Almost no one. Those looking for a nudge to walk who don't count on real payouts.

The app sells you a 7-day free trial and then quietly starts charging, with almost no way to cancel. Step-tracking accuracy is hard to judge because reviews are about billing, not walking. Even the Apple Health link fails to pull in indoor treadmill walks for some users.
Gelobt: People who got past the billing like the variety of walking programs and how it nudges them to move and keep pace for weight loss.
Kritik: Cancellation is hidden behind a two-step flow, charges continue even after you delete the app, and support replies with canned messages and refuses refunds.

A walk-to-earn scheme: 25,000 steps earn a measly 100 coins while cashing out needs tens of thousands, so people never see real money. The counter drifts from Health and freezes, the screen is packed with ads and coin-for-play games that don't credit. Add complaints about being charged for a trial that can't be cancelled.
Gelobt: The very hope of getting something for steps nudges people to walk, and some enjoy the surveys.
Kritik: The cash-out threshold is unreachable, coins trickle in, tons of ads, the counter is inaccurate and freezes, and there are disputed trial charges.
Für wen: Almost no one. Maybe those willing to endure ads for a token nudge, with no hope of a payout.

The app drags you through dozens of questions and only then reveals the price, framing a 5.99-a-week subscription as a deal. Functionally it works poorly: first workouts fail to record, the app freezes and will not let you finish a walk, and charges continue even after cancellation.
Gelobt: Some like the map and GPS route of the walk, and the self-starting format helps people move without a gym.
Kritik: The price is buried behind a long questionnaire, the subscription costs more than a gym, the first workout fails to record, the app freezes, and cancellation does not stop the charges.
Für wen: Almost no one. Too pushy an onboarding and a hidden expensive subscription atop a half-baked core feature.

The app pays for steps, but payouts systematically stall: cards and PayPal sit in review for months while support replies with templates. It used to pay quickly, now many call it a scam. Meanwhile the step counter is inaccurate and some ads run two minutes.
Gelobt: In the past, fast small payouts, some still occasionally get $5, and surveys add points.
Kritik: Payouts stall in review for a long time or vanish, support sends templated replies, the counter is inaccurate, and ads are long.
Für wen: Almost no one. Maybe those willing to risk their time for small payouts that may never arrive.

PaceFit is not a pedometer but a cash-out trap: earning points is easy, but at checkout it demands 50 fragments that drop from empty eggs once every hundreds of ad videos and reset just as you near the goal. Step accuracy is secondary, the whole point is an unwithdrawable reward. A genuine walk-to-earn scam.
Gelobt: Points pile up easily and watching the balance grow is thrilling at first. The tiny random cents sometimes really do pay out.
Kritik: Cashing out needs 50 fragments that almost never drop from eggs even after hundreds of ads and reset to zero, so real money cannot be withdrawn.

The app promises money for steps, but you can't withdraw it: progress freezes at 98 percent, it demands an impossible 30 puzzle pieces or hits a quota, and accumulated points get zeroed. People flatly call it a scam. As a pedometer it also counts inaccurately and doesn't match other trackers.
Gelobt: The very promise of money for steps is enticing, the interface is simple, and some like the idea itself.
Kritik: Withdrawal is blocked by a quota and puzzles, progress freezes at 98 percent, points get zeroed, support is silent, and the counter is inaccurate.
Für wen: No one. This is a broken earning scheme, not a usable pedometer.

It promises real money for walking, games and watching ads, but withdrawal is blocked. People pile up 30-86 dollars and hit 'insufficient funds', and after the first threshold rewards reset to zero. There is step counting, but it is just a pretext to run people through ads and tasks.
Gelobt: At first it feels like money comes easily, and small amounts even trickled in for some. It is nice to see steps, calories and walk time in one place.
Kritik: Cashing out does not work: the balance grows but shows 'insufficient funds' or freezes your energy. After the first 30-dollar threshold all savings reset, and task rewards are cut to token amounts.
Für wen: Not for anyone who believes the promised payouts. Pointless as a pedometer, the whole thing exists for ad impressions.

The app sells itself as walk-to-earn, but cashing out is effectively blocked by design. People watch ads for months, get stuck at 49 of 50 fragments, and the reward is endlessly 'delayed'. Step counting itself is secondary and often invisible, the whole point is watching clips.
Gelobt: Early on coins pile up easily and small Amazon payouts of 15-35 cents sometimes arrive. Some like it as a nudge to move more.
Kritik: Cashing out is blocked: the last of 50 fragments never drops, and the reward is forever 'delayed'. In practice it is not a pedometer but an ad-viewing machine.
Für wen: Not for anyone expecting to actually receive the promised money. It is a trap built on ad impressions, not a walking tracker.

This is not a step counter but an ad-serving machine dressed up as walk-to-earn. Ads pop up on almost every tap, the promised money and bonuses never pay out, and near the withdrawal threshold rewards shrink to pennies. Step counting is an afterthought no one cares about.
Kritik: An ad every couple of seconds, no sign-up bonus that ever arrives, and single-coin payouts near the cash-out limit so you never reach it.
Für wen: No one. It is a scam that spends your time on ads and pays nothing.
