Not pleased. It didn’t pick up all my steps today it’s a mile and a half off
- ★★★★★inaccurate step count
Incorrectly tracks steps. I was sitting in bed. And for 5 minutes I waved my phone around to test this, I went from 12,575 to 12,632 in that time. Health app will always be anywhere from 500-1000 behind this in total at the end of the day

Track my steps. 👍🏾

Step count is off by several thousand steps.. I trusted that this app was accurately counting my steps and today I happened to open my Health app and see the step count my Apple Watch got was almost 2,000 steps higher. Why is this widget missing almost 2,000 of the steps I took today? If this isn’t using the data from my Apple Watch to count my steps it’s useless. Uninstalling.

pedometer. The walking app is all right like no ads only thing bad about it. It’s not gonna stop and start. It keeps on tracking you should be able to walk or 3 miles stop and then start again the next day.

Not working. It stopped working, I walked on my treadmill for 1 mile and it stopped counting my steps at 1500 steps

Missing steps. Does not track Apple Watch steps

Doesn’t match Health steps. It used to be exactly the same number as in the Health app, but now it seems to only count steps recorded by your phone and not by your Apple watch
- ★★★★★inaccurate step count
Not the best :(. Did great when I initially got the app yesterday, but then by the end of the night it said I had only taken 7k steps and my health app said over 12k. It said it was refreshed on the app, but never did catch up to my health app fully. So sad :(

Simple is right. so simple it doesn’t even accurately display your steps lol My steps in my health app is always way different from this app. I am not sure where or how this app gets steps data but it is garbage and terribly inaccurate. On some days it’s missing thousands of steps on other mornings it has a few hundred steps lead always wrong always inaccurate.

Usage. You need to let people know the best place for your phone to work. I have tried several ways and sometimes it works but mostly it doesn’t what is a wigget and what is it for and how does it work
- ★★★★★inaccurate step count
Not accurate. This app does not keep an accurate record of your steps. I walked all over Mall of America for 3 hours. The app said I walked 541 steps. My new app read 3457 steps, which is much more correct.

Steps. I don’t like that you cannot set the step guide to your stride
- ★★★★★inaccurate step count
Doesn’t do the job. It only picks up steps half the time if that. This might work if you use it to jog where you’re swinging your arms continually. But daily steps all day no it doesn’t catch them all.

Weak. This in no way counts my steps for the day - get the total from my watch!
- ★★★★★inaccurate step count
App performance. Walking with my husband he has 2,200 more steps using the same app. I take 1.5 steps for every 1 step he takes. Does not make sense.

Won’t even start up!. This looks like exactly what I’m looking for. Downloaded it, but when I open it, I get a message saying I need to go into my settings and give it permission to access my motion data. Running ios 18.3.1, I can’t find any way to do that. And the app just will not budge from that “needs access to motion data” screen. I emailed support, but haven’t heard a thing. Sure wish I could give this app 5 stars…

In correct total. I have walked 12 laps so far at 42 steps a lap and it says I have walked 32 steps???

Don’t provide duration. Too bad his app doesn’t provide (without subscription) the most basic info such as the duration of a walk takes! I’m uninstalling…

Disappointed. I have been walking with this app for many years and it has been great and all of a sudden it disappeared and now I’m supposed to sign up for something on a yearly basis. I don’t understand what you did with all my Steps and records and badges. Where did you go?

WTH IS IT NOT WOR. I just walked 2 MILES and this thing has 93 STEP for the day…❓❓❓Only reason I downloaded is because I wanted a SIMPLE PODOMETER that doesn’t take up all my phone memory and I got THIS! SMH
