HOW IT WORKS
* Track steps automatically: StepDog connects with Apple HealthKit to read your daily step count in real time.
* Care for your dog: Walk enough each day and your virtual dog will eat, sit, play, and finally curl up to sleep.

Ratings and Reviews
Fun but could really use some enhancements
I am loving the app! It’s helping to motivate me to walk more because I want to walk my dog. I think it would be cool to add things like more animation so the dog can walk across the screen more like a tamagotchi pet! Also if we can play with the dog with different fitness games. Petting the dog doesn’t really do much, but if the dog had more animation, then it would be really interesting to play and pet the dog.
As someone who lost 2 dogs recently, this has been a cute supplemental way to have something in “remembrance” of them while keeping active.
Cute idea but needs some love
Really cute idea and I was excited to start tracking my steps instead of just my rings, but it has some issues. I’ll probably look for one that works a bit more consistently rather than pay the 99 cent fee every month.
It doesn’t sync unless you open the app and close it again a couple of times, which kind of defeats the purpose of having it in your watch face. Also, I’m not sure why it won’t let me leave the “competition” I’m in. It randomly puts you up against 4 unknown people but I don’t see any way to opt out.
If they could clean up the glitches and charge a one-time fee instead of 98 cents forever, I’d definitely give this one another shot.
Cute but needs tweaking
The pup only shows up on the modular info screen and only in certain positions- like the middle. Otherwise it shows only the name. It needs more room for display hence only certain positions in the face will show the pup. Also it’s a slow to synch. I use other step counters and they keep Up to date. I have to tap on it often times and pet pup to update steps. Other than that it’s fun to use!
