What StepUp is
StepUp is a step tracker for iPhone, with an Apple Watch app. It reads your steps from Apple Health, builds a week of step targets from your real walking history instead of a fixed 10,000, records your walks with their route, and keeps your steps and walks on your devices.
- Home: Today, at a glance. Steps, distance, calories and flights straight from Apple Health. Day, week, month and year views, and a calendar of every day you've walked.
- Streaks: A trophy for every goal day. Keep the run going, chase your best, and see exactly how many steps keep it alive tonight.
- Walks: Every walk, drawn. Record a walk with its route, even with the phone locked in your pocket. Then replay it as it went, quicker where it was brisk and slower up a hill.
- Golden Hour: Walk when the light turns soft. When golden hour starts in your town, tonight's sky, a reminder before it begins and a log of every evening you walked in it.
- Walking plan: Not 10,000. Your number. Built from your real history: each week asks a little more, never over 10%, and every week ends with a recap.
- Metrics: Read the walk, not just the count. Momentum, Trend, Tempo, Pace and Climb free; Effort, Routine, Evenness and Fitness with Pro.
- Weekly recap: Your week, told. Twelve pages on how the week went, from your best day to your longest walk, and a film of it to share.
- Share cards: Worth posting. Pick a card from the deck, add your own photo or video, and post your day or your walk.
- Reminders: A nudge while there's still time to walk. In the evening, where today stands against your goal, written from your own steps and worked out on your phone.
- Widgets: Your steps, without opening the app. Seventeen widgets for your Home Screen and Lock Screen, from Daily Goal to Your Paths, Sky Clock and Walk to Goal.
- Share cards: seven themes put your day or your walk on a card, with your own photo or video: a race ticket, a till receipt, a scoreboard, a postage stamp and a Swiss poster for a day, Photo & Map and Pinned for a walk with a route. Four are free, three need Pro.
Walks, Apple Watch and Expeditions
- Walks: start a walk on the iPhone or the Apple Watch and StepUp follows the route on Apple Maps, keeps going with the phone locked, shows time, distance and steps on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and saves it to Apple Health as an Outdoor Walk with its route. The walk log lists every walk with a route, from StepUp, Fitness or an Apple Watch, with its map and per-kilometre splits. Free.
- Apple Watch: today's steps against the goal and the streak on the wrist; walks of its own with GPS, steps and heart rate, a ring to today's target, and a tap on the wrist at each kilometre or mile and at the target; eight complications. The iPhone follows a Watch walk live. Free; with Pro, a line spoken at each split.
- Expeditions: journeys along real routes in the user's own town, counted from the distance in Apple Health, whether or not the walk was recorded in StepUp. Some routes are free; the rest, and pausing one journey to start another, need Pro.
- Weekly recap: on the first open of each week, last week as a story: the total, the goal days, the best day, the walks with their routes and an aim for the week ahead. It can be shared as a 9:16 video.
- Route cards: on a day with a walk, the share deck adds cards drawn from its route: Walk Mark and Photo & Map free, Pinned with Pro.
- Apple Intelligence: on iPhones that have it, Apple's on-device model words the tips, walk names and notes on the week from figures StepUp works out itself, and every number it writes is checked against them.

Privacy
Steps, distance, calories, heart rate and gait are read from Apple Health and used only on the iPhone; they never reach StepUp's servers. StepUp stores the account and what the user types in (name, goals, plan answers). No ads, nothing sold. Walks are recorded with GPS and kept on the phone and in Apple Health, routes included; they don't reach StepUp's servers either. Golden Hour keeps only the user's town, on the phone.
StepUp is a fitness app, not a medical device. No metric in it is a clinical measurement.
The Privacy Policy has the detail.
