Steps - Activity Tracker 4+

This game motivates me to go outside and run all day every day. Instead of playing other games, when I’m bored I go outside and start jogging with my best friend who also has the app. Believe or not, even though you don’t actually play any sort of game on this app, it’s actually kind of fun just running around the neighborhood. You also never know if you might meet a friend while running or jogging. I also love the fact that you can change the colors in the background. In addition, you can see the number of miles you’ve ran and how long you’ve been running for. You’re also able to change you’re goal for steps in a day. And you can pay just $1.99 to see the amount of calories you’ve burned for the day. Finally, you can check you’re history to see if the number of steps you’ve taken in a day has gone up compared to other days. I motivate everyone to get this app! I love it and you’ll love it too!

A couple of times I found that the app just stopped counting my steps at less than 20% of my total steps during a ‘Workout’. The other thing is, if you forget to hit ‘Finish’, merely pausing it won’t stop the time from accumulating so, even though you finished all of your walk for example in a planned “workout“, it won’t credit you the steps for the day you walked if you forgot to end that particular workout. Then, those step show up on the chart for the next day, but are not counted towards the next day’s steps either. So you don’t get credit for those steps, because they were really part of a work out that you did the day before, but it bled over into the next day because you forgot to turn hit ‘Finish’ that particular work out. Now, there are 2500 steps or so in this particular work out I’m talking about that are showing up for the following day because it was after midnight before I terminated the work out or ‘finished’ the work out, but they’re not showing up on the steps total for the next day, either. It would be very nice if we could go in and manually correct the finished time of a work out.

I don’t often write reviews but I feel the need to for this app. I’ve been using this app for at least a few years now. It has never let me down. Not only is it easy to use, it’s reliable, it’s accurate, and it also works on my Apple Watch… but the fact that the developers haven’t gone money hungry and are very receptive make it a thousand times better. A few years ago, I had a problem with the steps not refreshing to show up on my Apple Watch in real time. It was fixed almost immediately and I’ve never had a problem since. Probably one of the most used apps on my watch and is always on the face of it! Always perfectly syncs to iPhone. Probably one of the few apps that I’ve NEVER had a problem with. Good job Devs!
