Steps - Simple Pedometer
authentic ratingA 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.
