Steps Reviews

I use a few step apps that provide deep details, was looking for a simple app to show this app and distance, so Steps caught my attention. However, the ads are on steroids- top and bottoms of screen (typical for free app) but as other uses have mentioned, you can’t navigate between the 2 views without pop up ads that can’t be dismissed until they play, and one of them has loud audio.

I would be much happier paying a few bucks to remove all ads, instead I’m having to remove Steps itself.

Note: there are a few other good simple & free step apps, going back to those.

It was a great small app until recently. I used it for years. Gave quick step counts and also showed miles. I loved it. But the recent updates destroyed it. The ads are constantly popping up now. I can't toggle between miles and this app without several popping up every time I look at something. I was fine with ads being on the top or bottom of the screen, but there is no reason to have them pop up forcing me to watch them before I can read any data. Only to have it do it again if i tap on something else. If this isn’t changed soon, time to look for another app with little to no pop up ads.

There’s 5,280 feet in a mile. I would have to walk two feet in each “step” to have 2,640 this app yet I walked 4.4miles just on my 2 walks yesterday & Steps says I only walked 4K this app total with my walk & only shows .8miles walked when my walks were logged via google maps as 4.4 miles in total for the routes combined.
I don’t think Steps is properly recording but the health app hasn’t shown an accuracy lately either.

All the new update did was make it so that there’s tons of ads now. It said there was a new interface but nothing besides a flood of ads has changed. I can’t even toggle between this app taken & distance walked without seeing an ad now, not to mention there’s one every time Steps is opened. Before it was not like that. There’s nothing special about Steps ; it gives distance walked & this app taken, so why should I put up with watching tons of ads to do what used to be a quick 5 second check of these? I’m gonna start looking for a new pedometer app since this one decided to sell out without adding any extra features

Developer Please Take Note: Could easily be 5 stars, but the ads completely overpower usability. Even more surprising, there is no pay for option to remove the adds!!! Give me a 1 time payment option to remove the adds and I will pay it! Also for fun consider adding different UI colors/ themes! You can always charge a small one time fee for the themes / customization as well.

This updated this app app is sooo bad!! The previous app worked perfectly. This ‘updated’ one is sooo slow to count this app… Sometimes when I’m walking, it will lag behind and then ‘catch up’ and advance 400 this app all at once!! Just now it is ‘stuck’ on a number, and will NOT advance!! I know this because my ’Health’ app is showing I have a 368 additional this app!! What is wrong and how do I fix this error?!?

I only have one issue with Steps. When the ads pop up and I hit close , I need them to close! I like to check my this app often and sometimes not in the appropriate times so when an ad starts blaring and you cannot exit out of it, very annoying!! Also sometimes it lags behind when counting your this app!

It is a good app tells you your this app through the week but when you go from miles to this app you have to see an ad every time even when you open Steps there’s an ad other than the ads it is a nice app I wish there was a little more to Steps like track your this app on a run not only the one day

Every time I looked at this app today it will give me a number and then deduct several hundred this app. What’s up with that? I just updated my app and it still is not accurately counting my this app and it was before. Why don’t you have a setting where questions could be asked and answered? I always have my phone in my back pocket and I jog in place watching tv, is that a problem because it never used to be a couple of updates ago. I also have been counting the this app while I jog in place so I know what it should have been and it’s always short now.

With this new version it’s not giving me the amount of this app that I have walked. I’ve counted 100 this app that I have taken and it only credited 62 this app. What’s wrong with this new version. The last version was more accurate.

It has helped me during covid cause I downloaded it the first day to see how many this app I have done! And I must say it has made me love to walk seeing how much it helped me preventing blood clot’s in my legs , I have to say thank you for helping and I would continue to use Steps since it has helped me.

Too often one day has more this app but it indicates less miles and other days less this app and shows more miles. It also stops showing any additional this app made for some reason. I have always enjoyed Steps but the last two weeks it has not been calculating my this app properly. I deleted and downloaded again but that didn’t help.

What I’m not appreciating now is that I cannot access my this app without getting ads popping up every single time that take a while for me to be able to close. It’s actually quite infuriating. Hopefully there’s something you can do about that?

I really like it it make everything easier and reall easy to understand but i would suggest you to have a goal for everyday. My goal each day is 6,000 step a day i think you should make a goal and tell me which day i reach the goal which i don’t. I know coding is hard really hard actually but can you try please. :))
Hai,

Steps doesn’t count or report all this app taken during the day. Example: every morning I walk a measured 283 this app area in 5 continuous loops. Accordingly, I expected the step counter to report at least 1400 this app for the session instead of the hundred this app it reports.

Not sure recorded mileage is correct. It doesn’t match up day to day. Over same walking route, number of this app are fairly constant but mileage changes day to day. I always keep my phone in the same pants pocket while walking.

It one of my favorite apps. I use it all day because it counts my this app, but I especially use it when I go for a walk or I use my treadmill. Steps encourages me to walk more. On the days I don’t go for a walk I can see the drastic decline in the number of this app I took that day.

The past usage screen is easy to access and is also very useful.

👏 This this app counter is sweet! It counts my this app (as long as I have my phone on my person) and it is easy to use. You do not need a subscription to count your this app and it counts them without Steps being open. However; there are a lot of advertisements. I think you can upgrade to remove them.
Thank you for developing Steps, I truly appreciate this free version.

I can’t on Steps to give me a true reading of the miles I walk, but lately Steps won’t translate my this app into miles; it use to, but won’t do it anymore. It’s very frustrating because I’m looking for the total distance I walk each day, and no matter what icon I tap or touch Steps won’t convert this app to miles; so why would I pay the extra money for the available add-ons to Steps?

I’ve been using Steps to count my this app for the last two weeks. I’ve lost 10 pounds during this journey. And I am going to continue to use it until I I hit my goal.
