StepsApp Pedometer
authentic ratingA 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.
