A simple step counter perfect for minimalists.

Features & Capabilities

A simple step counter with an efficient algorithm built for minimalism. It follows the design principle: Do one thing, and do it well.

Optional features let you enable distance and calories; you’ll get a clean notification bar and widgets, a weekly/monthly/all-time activity overview, and a daily step goal. It’s designed to be power-efficient and lightweight, using only your device sensors and nothing else in the background. If you want, it can count cookies too. 🍪

User Reviews

Users repeatedly praise the app’s simplicity, ad‑free design, small size, and low battery use while providing reliable step counts and a handy widget. Common complaints appearing multiple times are a persistent foreground notification with little permission control, occasional rounding/delays in step counts, limited history/customization (distance breakdowns, monthly/year views, averages), and some widget placement/appearance issues.

Pros

Very simple/minimal UI — does one thing without bloat
No ads or trackers (many users explicitly praise the ad‑free experience)
Lightweight; small footprint and low battery use
Accurate and reliable step counting for most users; includes a useful widget/lock‑screen summary

Cons

Runs as a foreground service / persistent notification with limited user control over background permissions
Steps sometimes appear rounded (increments of 10) or slightly delayed
Limited customization and history features (no monthly/yearly breakdown, rolling averages, or adjustable day cut‑offs)
Widget behavior/placement and appearance are inflexible and disliked by some users
