Now with tighter cadence targets straight from the research - and audio cues that always follow your current settings. Walk steady, run kind, at your own smile pace. ProsoStride - walk and run at your smile pace. ProsoStride is your Niko-Niko companion. "Niko-Niko" means smiling in Japanese - the gentle, conversational "smile pace" behind slow jogging and brisk walking. Practised regularly, this easy, even effort is kind to your joints, good for your heart, and a sustainable way to build fitness without chasing speed. The idea is simple: hold a steady, comfortable cadence and let your body settle into a rhythm it can keep. ProsoStride guides every step with live audio cues so you stay in your ideal zone - no need to keep glancing at your phone. WORKS ON IPHONE ALONE Cadence walk and run need nothing but your iPhone. Set a target rhythm (steps per minute) and the app nudges you with gentle audio when you drift too fast or too slow. A built-in metronome keeps you on the beat. PAIR AN APPLE WATCH FOR HEART-RATE ZONES Add an Apple Watch to unlock real-time heart-rate zones. iPhone and Watch work together to keep you inside your target window - perfect for keeping a slow jog genuinely slow. WHAT'S INSIDE • Cadence Walk & Run - match your steps to a target rhythm, • Heart-Rate Zones - stay in your Niko-Niko window (Apple Watch) • Interval Timer - Prepare · Work · Rest · Cooldown rounds with haptics • Running metronome with adjustable steps-per-minute • Cadence Guard - auto-metronome that kicks in when you drift out of zone • Per-zone audio feedback you can tune to taste • Cadence Calculator - personalised targets from your age and height • Metric or imperial - centimetres or feet & inches, your call • Saves your workouts to Apple Health WHY CADENCE? Quick, light steps (Professor Hiroaki Tanaka's slow-jogging research suggests around 180 spm) reduce impact and improve efficiency. Shorter people naturally step a little faster, taller people a little slower - ProsoStride tailors your target to fit you. These are evidence-based suggestions, not rules. If a pace feels too hard or too easy, slide it to where it feels right. Your body knows best. Small, steady steps add up. Let's go.

Not working without Apple Watch even though it advertises no Apple Watch required. Stole my money basically.

Developer Response
Thank you for taking the time to write, and I'm genuinely sorry for the frustration.You're right that ProsoStride's Cadence walk and run are meant to work on iPhone alone, with no Apple Watch - and they do. What went wrong is a mistake on my side: instead of asking for the "Motion & Fitness" access it needs to count your steps, the app showed a misleading "Apple Watch required" message. That wording was simply wrong - the mode needs motion access, not a Watch.I've already submitted an update that fixes it: the app now requests Motion & Fitness properly and shows an accurate message.Quick fix: open Settings → Privacy & Security → Motion & Fitness and turn ProsoStride on if it's listed; if not, the update handles it for you.Thanks for the feedback.Bart

FIXED • Audio cues now always follow your current settings. • Cadence targets stay in a range a human can actually hold. Very short or very tall people could be handed a running target nobody sustains. The height refinement now fine-tunes you inside the evidence instead of running off the end of it. • The target you set is the target the metronome plays. • Watch haptics no longer begin a workout using the previous activity's zones. IMPROVED • Cadence limits tightened to 80–140 spm walking and 150–200 spm running, following the Tudor-Locke CADENCE work and Tanaka's niko-niko anchor. • A quiet note appears when a target sits outside the usual band - a nudge, never a gate. Your body still knows best; slide it wherever it feels right. • The metronome now reaches 200 spm, so it can match any cadence target. • Use Apple Watch moved to Settings -> General. It powers heart-rate zones, cadence and remote control, so it no longer hides inside the HR section. • Start screen tidied up along the bottom edge.
