Gait
A Privacy First Step Counter
Free · In‑App Purchases
Steps counted on your iPhone. One source, one number, nothing to reconcile. No Health permission, no account, no ads.
Gait counts your steps on your iPhone. That is the whole idea.
ONE SOURCE, ONE NUMBER
Most step counters merge readings from your iPhone, your Apple Watch and Health, then show a total that matches none of them. Gait reads the motion sensor in your iPhone and nothing else. One number, nothing to reconcile.
NO HEALTH PERMISSION. NO ACCOUNT. NO ADS.
Gait never asks for access to Health, because it never needs it. There is no sign-up and no cloud. Your steps stay on your phone.
TODAY AT A GLANCE
A trail of footprints fills as you walk, and the arc at the end of it is your goal. Underneath: distance, walking speed, cadence and floors climbed, live from the same sensor.
A GOAL THAT FITS
Choose 5,000, 8,000, 10,000 or 12,000 steps. The trail redraws to match.
Built for iPhone and iPad, in light and dark.
Gait is free and always has been. If it earns a place on your home screen there is a tip jar, and that is the only thing it will ever ask you for.
WANT TO KNOW HOW YOU WALK, NOT JUST HOW MUCH?
Gait Pro adds your full history and the eight walking measurements Apple Health records, including walking speed, step length, walking asymmetry and walking steadiness.
Gait has been redesigned from the ground up. It now looks like its icon: a trail of footprints climbing toward your goal.
NEW
- A completely new design, in light and dark
- Cadence, which the app has measured for years and never displayed
- Choose your daily goal: 5,000, 8,000, 10,000 or 12,000 steps
- A clearer first run, which tells you when Motion access is switched off instead of waiting silently
FIXED
- Walking speed was labelled as metres per second while actually showing its reciprocal. It now reads correctly.
- On some devices the app refused to count steps at all, because it checked the wrong sensor capability.
