Your steps. His ego.
Penguin is a step counter and pedometer with a pudgy, extremely confident penguin. Every walk makes him fitter, faster, and more insufferable.
Walk with friends in a Waddle: see who hit their goal (never their steps) and poke whoever's still on the couch.
WALK LIKE NORMAL
• Counts every step from Apple Health, whether your iPhone or your Apple Watch did the counting
• No workout to start. No rings to close
• Home Screen widgets, so he can judge you in real time
• Apple Watch app included
HE GETS FIT. YOU JUST WALK.
• Couch bird, strong waddler, athlete: every walk moves him up
• He gets fit, not skinny. Every stage is a good look, and he will never comment on your body
• Hyped when you move. Shocked you went outside. Asleep on the couch when you are
PENGUINS DON'T WALK ALONE
• Start a Waddle, send the link, and everyone's penguin shows up on one screen
• See how close friends are to their goal. Nobody sees anyone's steps
• Poke the one who's been "about to leave" since lunch
• The Rookery (optional): one giant sheet of ice shared by every penguin. Wave at strangers. Judge their fits
THERE'S NO FINISH LINE. HE CHECKED.
• Your steps move him across a map of landmarks, each with a story he won't stop telling
• Earn fits by walking. Stack Aura. Keep streaks
• Rest days never cost Aura. He calls it the recovery department
STUFF HE'LL NEVER ROAST
Your body. Your rest days. Your bad week. Your pace. A slow lap still counts.
PRIVACY, MINUS THE FINE PRINT
Your step count and step history stay on your phone. Friends in your Waddle see how close you are to your goal, never your steps. No ads. No selling your data. Details: penguinathletics.com/privacy

Now go touch grass. Or ice.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Your waddle just got a lot more nosy.
• Friend profiles: tap a friend's penguin to see their trophies, landmarks and stickers. The ones you don't have yet are tagged NEW. Rude.
• Better invites: send a link, your friend taps it, they're in. No more iCloud pop-ups.
• Your waddle takes your penguin's name, or rename it to whatever you want.
• The app icon shows a badge when someone pokes you or joins your waddle.
• Invite a friend now stays pinned to the bottom of the Waddle screen.
• Penguin Plus: plans are up top, and your penguin is aura farming.
• Your penguin stands on the ice when you set your step goal, under the same sky as Home.
• Bug fixes and extra swagger.
