Stroller Steps 4+

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.

I recently got the Apple Watch as a way to stay fit and have been making it a point to go for walks with baby. I’ve been amazed at how seamless the Stroller Steps experience is and how easy it was to set up. Feels like a natural extension of the Apple Health capabilities. Thank you!
