Burn more calories with interval walking. Works in background, tracks progress and calculates calories in Apple Health Japanese walking turns your steps into a fat-burning workout with interval walking, alternating fast and slow paces. Boost cardio and lose weight more effectively than regular walking. Classic Japanese Walking: walk fast for 3 minutes, then slow for 3 minutes, and repeat this cycle for 5 rounds. It turns ordinary steps into short, purposeful intervals that fit any schedule. Follow fast-then-easy cycles to elevate your daily walk, build stamina, and stay motivated — no gym required. This walking app is an interval walking timer - it notifies you when to switch between fast and slow pace, making the cardio training easy and distraction-free. It works as a calorie counter and a fitness companion, so you can use this data to manage your weight loss. Here's what you could expect from these workouts: Boost Energy – Quick pace surges wake up body and mind. Boost Cardio – Alternating speeds gently train heart and lungs. Boost Motivation – Real-time cues keep every session engaging. Boost Consistency – Short workouts slip into busy calendars. Boost Weight Loss – Calories burned more efficiently when pace is changing. App Features Interval walking timer (3 min fast / 3 min slow) Calorie counter for walking workouts Streak tracking for consistency Simple, distraction-free interface Apple Health integration Easy Routine — Each Step Starts With “Walk” Walk Fast 3 min – Push to a brisk, challenging pace. Walk Easy 3 min – Slow down, breathe, stay moving. Walk Repeat 5× – About 30 minutes total, then cool down. Frequently Asked Questions Why is Japanese walking popular? Because it delivers noticeable results in short, flexible sessions that suit modern lifestyles. How is interval walking better than regular walks? Because structured intervals add gentle intensity to the cardio workout, making every minute more productive without extra impact. Why is Japanese walking healthy? Because alternating speeds encourages steady heart work, varied muscle engagement, and continual movement—key elements for overall wellness. Perfect For — Each Line Starts With “Anyone” Anyone short on time looking for efficient exercise. Anyone easing into fitness who wants low-impact progression. Anyone returning from injury needing controlled intensity. Anyone aiming for weight loss through structured walking. Some features in this app require a subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase.

Almost perfect. Needs an Apple Watch app.

I came across this app through a recommendation from Claude when I wasn’t happy with another app I was using. Thank you, AI. Honestly, the only feature missing here is a companion Apple Watch app for times I might not want to bring my iPhone with me, like if I’m just walking around the park across the street. This checks every other box for me though.

I like music when I walk. If I toggle between music and walking app the sound is muted. Example: if im on theMusic app I cant hear the alert sounds for change ofpace bc its muted. When on the Japanese then, when on this Walking app my music mutes. If I turn up music while in this app and toggle back to the music app it breaks my eardrums. My phone is an Apple iPhone. It would be helpful too if the alert sounds were different depending on change of pace speed. Also, a longer duration of the sound would be helpful. Pls provide your email so your customers can request refunds (including yours truly).

UPD: We’ve added voice guidance for the timer, which fixes the issue you described!Thank you for your feedback and for pointing out the issues. Regarding the refund – it is handled by Apple, so please contact them directly. As a developer I cannot process refunds myself, but my settings allow Apple to approve any refund request.As for the sound, unfortunately Apple has strict limitations for background timers, so sounds don’t always work perfectly. Still, notifications should arrive normally, and I will work on improving this and adding different alert sounds.I’m sorry to have disappointed you and that it led to a one-star review.

I should expect that the app keeps working when I lock my phone but it does not! How can something so critical be missing? Especially for a paid app.

We’ve released an update where we fixed the bug.Yes, you’re right — unfortunately, due to the specifics of iOS, the background timer works inconsistently: for some users it functions properly, while for others it doesn't.Thank you for letting us know, as it was working fine on our devices.We hope you won't encounter this issue anymore.By the way, the timer functionality itself is free — there’s no need to pay for it.

I bought the app because of this feature, but it neither shows up in my list of apps or appears connected. This makes it very klugy. I also can’t connect it to my watch. Okay. It is connected, but it doesn’t show in my list of apps, I still can’t get it on my Apple Watch.
