Stepwise: Step Counter Walk

Your steps. One huge number. Nothing else in the way.

Stepwise is a step counter for people who just want to know how far they have walked today — without dashboards, feeds, sign-ups, or a tutorial to sit through. Open it and the number is already there, big enough to read at arm's length.

WHAT YOU GET

• Today's steps, huge and instant
Your step count fills the screen in a clean, rounded typeface you can read in a glance while walking. The number animates as it climbs, so you can watch it move.

• Distance, automatically in your units
Right below your steps you get the distance you have covered, in kilometres or miles depending on your region. No settings to dig through.

• A daily goal that actually celebrates you
Set any goal from 1,000 to 100,000 steps. Hit it and the screen bursts into confetti — once a day, when you have earned it. Not a badge buried in a profile tab.

• Home Screen widget
Small, medium, or large. Your step count sits on your Home Screen and stays current, so most days you never need to open the app at all.

• Hour-by-hour stats
Tap Stats for a clean bar chart of today and yesterday, broken down by hour. See when you actually move — the morning commute, the afternoon slump, the evening walk — and compare today against yesterday at the same hour.

• Light and dark, your call
Follow your system appearance or lock it to light or dark from the menu.

BUILT ON APPLE HEALTH

Stepwise reads your step count from Apple Health, so it counts the steps your iPhone is already recording — including the ones you took before you installed it. There is no separate tracker running in the background and no extra battery drain from a second counter. If you carry your phone, your steps are counted.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

• No account, no sign-up, no email
• Your step history stays on your device
• Read-only access to Health — Stepwise never writes to your Health data
• Nothing to opt out of, because nothing is collected

WHO IT IS FOR

If you have tried a fitness app and quit because it wanted your weight, your goals, your notifications and your subscription before showing you a single number — this is the opposite of that. Stepwise does one thing. Walk, glance, done.

Whether you are working toward 10,000 steps a day, keeping a walking habit alive, getting back on your feet after an injury, or just curious how far you actu
