Movesum — Step counter by Lifesum
For most of us, the problem is that we need to move more, not faster. Movesum is a brand new step-counting concept that helps you find the motivation to exercise. The beautifully designed app provides you with a simple and effective way to set movement goals, stay committed, and connect your activity with the way you eat.
Use the smart notifications to reach your daily goal and build streaks, so that you can become healthier. Movesum will not only help you take your daily exercise to the next level, it will give you a clearer view of how the food you eat is effected by your exercise.
Get moving with Movesum now, and see what it takes to undo a burger or a portion of fries.
Movesum utilizes Apple's Health App to read your movement data.

Editors' Notes
Tracking your steps is one thing, but learning exactly how much food you’ve burned off is a thousand times better. Enter Movesum: an intelligent digital pedometer that lets you equate your day’s movement with all types of calorie-filled fare. Helpful notifications will get you moving, but otherwise this tracker stays out of your way. It’s simple but also surprisingly inspiring—you’re so close to working off a second slice of pizza!
Interesting concept
But putting foods down to averages gives one a false idea of how quickly calories can vary due to the cooking process, food toppings, and sauces which may mean you miss your goal by several hundred calories. The burger is 495 cals, but a standard Whopper without cheese is 693 and with is 776.
It does gets those not used to calorie counting to begin realising how hard you have to work to burn off fast food, though, so does its job, in a way.
To improve the app I propose user edits to the food entries to further personalise the app. You could click and hold on the food images and have a drop down list appear that you could select with different types of burgers or pizzas that the user commonly eats with personal name tags like "Whopper with cheese" or "Dominos Hawaiian pizza" and linked with more accurate calories.
Interesting App
I like being able to compare my steps to the foods and if people are unable to discern the difference between information provided as a guide as opposed to ‘absolute accuracy’ information - then why are they still alive? The fact that people put so much belief into an app and information provided without doing their research is the one reason why scammers are so easily able to scam people these days. My only issue with the app is I can’t see my past history, it would be good to have step history available.
