StepsApp for tracking the number of steps

The watchOS operating system offers a native tool for measuring the number of steps taken, within the Activity function. But if you want to delve even deeper into counting steps and get more detailed information along with clear and useful widgets on the iPhone desktop, or complications for the Apple Watch, we recommend an application called StepsApp, which offers you everything you need to measure the number of steps taken.

Standland for standing
