User Reviews

Reviewers praise StepDog as a cute, motivating Apple Watch companion that makes step tracking fun, with a dog-themed watch face and generally responsive support. However, watch-compatibility issues (dogs vanishing, white silhouettes, limited complications) and unreliable step counting/syncing undermine reliability. Users also want more dog breeds and better stability, plus reconsideration of ongoing subscription pricing. Overall, fans love the concept but want fixes, broader customization, and pricing options.

Pros

Cute and appealing dog visualization on the Apple Watch that looks like the user's dog
Motivates daily walking and helps users reach step goals
Easy-to-see steps on the watch via a dedicated complication/watch face
Positive, responsive customer service when issues arise
Long-term fans appreciate the concept and find the watch face fun

Cons

Watch integration is unstable: the dog can disappear after updates, appears as a white silhouette, and only a couple of watch faces work as complications
Step counting and syncing are inconsistent; counts can be off and changes require opening the app
Limited dog breed options; many requests for more breeds such as Bernese Mountain Dog, schnauzer, dachshund, and others
Phone app crashes or bugs occur; updates can break features
Subscription pricing concerns; many users prefer a one-time fee or less aggressive recurring costs

I have had this app for years and am very pleased with it. I enjoy seeing my dog interact with my step goals. Had a question, contacted customer service, and quickly everything was resolved.

Doesn’t show up on my Apple Watch anymore after updating to the latest OS

I love this app and have had it for over a year! Only complaint is that they need a Bernese mountain dog option. They have several unique breeds (afghan hound, basenji, Tibetan to name a few). Bernese mountain dogs are pretty popular so it’s surprising they don’t have that breed option.
