Reviews for Step Tracker - Pedometer

This app has been great for keeping track of progress, it is encouraging with the badges, and the GPS is better than any other tracking app I've had, and I went through about six others. You also can plan for say a 1 mile walk, but at the end you still wanna keep going? It lets you know your time at 1 mile, but will keep tracking extra progress automatically. It helps to not have to start and stop constantly.

I used to love this app, but the ads have become very obtrusive the last few months, so I'll be switching to another pedometer app. It's a shame they had to ruin the experience I undestand the need for apps on a free app, however I don't understand the need to have ads explode over the app when you open or when you try to exit. A more subtle ad makes it a lot more likely for me, at least, to look at at an ad, versus now it gives me a negative view of the product

I really like the app. I like that it tells me my stats while walking. It's easy to use and I like the GPS portion. The only thing I'm finding is that I do full mile markers, so yesterday I did 3 at lunch then 6 after work for a total of 9 miles. Today when I looked at my total for yesterday it says 8.26. I don't get the discrepancy, which part is off? Is gps off or the record keeping? It bugs me not having an accurate log. But, other than that it's simple and at least keeps me motivated.

I love the app and have been using it for almost a year without a problem but had my phone stolen and reloaded the app. I can't get it to backup/restore my old info however. It goes kind of dim and does nothing else. I have to hit back and it goes back but I can't get it to restore my information... That's sucks. Update: nevermind. It just took a long time for Google to come up. Was able to get it restored. Gave it 5 stars.

Very easy to use. The GPS is very accurate. I've been using this app for about a year now and I love it. I have tried a couple of other free step tracking/pedometer apps and this one is the best IMO. It not only keeps count of steps but shows a map of the route taken, how many calories burned and tells you how many minutes per mile walked all on the same page. It has inspired me to increase my walks from .5 miles to 4 miles +. I am 66 years young and this has done wonders for my health.

There are too many ads. UPDATE FOR YOUR QUICK RESPONSE AND MAKING IT A 5 STAR. Thanks for the quuck response. Maybe move ads to another location on the screen like the top. At the bottom, the ads interfere with the Android controls on the bottom of the screen. Also, I did purchase the app, so hopefully, there are no more ads.

You know, this app is really good, but the ads at the end drive me nuts. I am considering removing the app due to this. I once saw an option to pay to have the ads removed but can't find it again. I simply didn't have my credit card handy at the time. Also, I do not need the 1/2 way announcement, it is annoying. Same for the end of target distance. Please, allow us to kill these. Other announcements are disabled. I was hoping to be able to pay for ad removal on this site.

This app works very well as a pedometer and it has a lot of nice features, so I chose to upgrade to the paid version. Every single time I use it, it reverts to the ad-supported version, and I have to delete and reinstall to remove the ads. The developers never respond to support requests. So, use the app, but do not bother to pay for it, unless you like seeing full screen ads that you can't skip, and you like reinstalling apps every day.

I've had this app for several years and been very satisfied until recently. I don't mind the pop up ads but in the last few months those have become longer ads that you can't dismiss for 30 seconds or longer. When I'm just opening the app to quickly check a stat, this is a huge turn off. If there's not an ad-free purchase option, I'll soon be looking for a different app. No complaints otherwise...it works really well.

This is a fairly okay app if you just want to get a general idea of how much activity you're getting on a daily basis and, seeing this is a free app, the price is right for that. If you're in need of something with a little more accuracy, however, I'd recommend looking for a device that's designed with this service in mind --- which, sadly, means spending money. You'll discover with Step Tracker that your walk calculations can be off anywhere from between 200 to 2000 steps on any given day.

Yes it has ads, but I don't find them overly invasive. It does what it's supposed to do. It acts as a passive step counter, & has a training mode where you can log your jaunts. The accuracy of the miles per minute seems to improve as you go along. Also, this app does tell you it's overall accuracy depends on phone hardware. And don't run the app and battery saver at the same time. It really goes screwy.

Very good for tracking miles walked. I use it at work and play...it's easy to use and not a bother. It let's me know when I have reached a goal walking and sets new goals , for me great app............ the review is kinda long wanting 500 words to explain how good it is they need to cut it back like 200 words. Or they can just let you put words in to get past this and go on to ratings and back to your phone. I hope they correct it and make it simpler for us. I tried to think of everything bye

You need a pedometer for indoors as GPS/location services don't track well, if at all. This app does a great job and it's quite easy to use. Check the length of your stride and if it's different than what's typical for your height, which is set automatically, change it to manual and enter the correct value. I've found the step and distance count to be very accurate.

I have used this app for about 3 years and have loved it. Earlier this year, my walking routes suddenly became around 1/2 mile longer. If distances are calculated using GPS, why the change? I have submitted several crash reports to no avail. The map option is helpful when walking an unfamiliar route, but other than that, this app is no longer useful to me. Thanks for the feedback. The precise location had already been selected.

I love this app. I am pretty much homebound since long before Covid, but I like trying to increase my steps slowly and surely. I can look at them and decide whether to increase my steps or maintain them for the time being. I had to learn how to walk again after an accident. This keeps me moving. If I can build up the strength I may be able to avoid a surgerie(s).

App is PERFECT! I don't know if it can tell the difference between running and walking as I'm sure running would burn more calories per step but it's a great app, unless......unless you get a new phone. I had so many achievements and when I got a new phone NONE of the info transferred over. Most of the achievements I had the highest possible one done. It said I walked more than 99.9% of all users and I had to lose it all. That's why I only gave 3 stars. Otherwise it would be 5 stars easy!

I had the app for exactly one year, 365 days before uninstalling. I used it only for tracking my steps. It counted in intervals of ten not individually, so it wasn't always accurate. It also used to be ad-free. They've begun to add ads gradually. First only when you open the app, but now more and more common to see. I tolerated the app for a year, but have uninstalled because of these two reasons. There are better free step trackers out there. :)

I've been loving this app. It's been about 8 months I havnt been able to walk. I never got rid of this app because it does track the amount you have walked, fair. Grocery stores and ect. Everyday it shows a little reminder to go walking with different positive notes. It's accurate. It's not like the others, where it count steps and all you did was move your wrist. boy, was that most irritating. I encourage all to seriously use this. It even encourages you to keep going to reach your goal 2day !

Used it for years and it worked great! Saw no ads at all. Suddenly ads area appearing and they aren't short ads, these are ads that take quite a long time to get through before you can actually get to the app. Who has time for that? I'm uninstalling and using something else. Went from good to obtrusive and a time waster.

Nice app. I like it. I wanted it just for free walking. I like how it keeps track of the total time of your walk (with the ability to pause and resume) distance shown on a map with your actual movement, counts your steps and how many calories you burned. It does usually have you watch through medium to long length ads, which are very annoying.
