Absolutely LOVE the concept of this app and have been using it almost since it came out. However, it can be quite glitchy. Recently, after a walk with stroller steps it will say the total steps were 4600 for example, then I’ll look at my apple health steps and the total for the day so far is 4200 and that was including other walking just around the house and stuff. So the totals don’t seem to be going into my Apple health total step count. I’ve checked all the permissions and everything seems good, so I don’t know what else it could be.

Written April 2025. My elderly mom has an Apple Watch fully updated that is no longer accurately tracking her steps because she is recovering from knee surgery and must constantly have 2 hands on her rolling walker. I thought this app would be a great solution to track her steps while pushing her rolling walker, and to show her progress with physical therapy. We paid the $10 lifetime subscription fee, installed it onto the watch, and tried to start it. We keep getting the message saying we don’t have a subscription on her watch, but on her iPhone it clearly states we have a subscription. The help page brings you to a non-working link on WhatsApp. There is no way to get any customer support, and the app is totally stuck and doesn’t work. Complete waste of time and money. App seems like a good idea, but it’s a complete scam.

I don’t want to give this a “bad” review because I was trying to use the app for something other than what it is marketed for. That being said, if you’re thinking this app may solve the issue of the Apple Watch not counting steps while you walk at your desk walking pad, be aware it won’t. I’m sure it’s great for stroller walks, which is why I thought I’d give it a try. Unfortunately it doesn’t work like I had hoped. Would be great if this app or something similar could be developed for that application!

My son is 11mo old. I started doing walks with him in the stroller at 4 weeks, and noticed right away steps were way off during my normal neighborhood route. It felt like my watch was gaslighting me - not something I needed when looking for extra motivation to get out of the house with my baby. With Stroller Steps, I’ve regained at least 1500 steps a day on my normal route — yes toward my rings but now I know I’m confidently tracking ALL my steps during the day — which is important to me.
