Step Tracker - Pedometer APK for Android

Step Tracker - Pedometer is a pedometer and activity tracker that logs steps, distance, calories, and pace using your phone’s built-in sensor, with optional GPS mapping for detailed route tracking.

The sensor-based mode runs in the background without draining your battery. Your phone counts steps whether it’s in your hand, pocket, bag, or armband, and keeps recording even when the screen is locked. Switch to GPS mode for real-time route mapping with distance, pace, and time overlays, or stick with sensor tracking to stretch battery life.

Key Features:

• The app syncs with Google Fit, so your step data flows into your broader health record without manual exports.
• Daily, weekly, and monthly graphs break down your walking patterns, and you can set custom step goals to build streaks and stay consistent.
• A training tracker logs workout sessions, while water intake reminders and habit tracking keep the rest of your routine in check.
• Route mapping in GPS mode records your path on a real-time map, marking distance and pace as you move.
• The counter pauses, resumes, or resets on demand, and notification bar updates show your live step count without opening the app.

Pedometer sensitivity and device compatibility

Sensitivity adjusts in settings to fine-tune accuracy based on your stride. Some devices cut sensor access when the screen locks due to aggressive power management, and older Android versions may not support background step counting at all. Check your system settings if steps stop logging with the screen off.

Other step tracker apps

Google Fit pulls data from wearables and third-party fitness platforms, so it works best when you have devices feeding it. Pedometer – Step Counter focuses on simple step goals and daily tracking without branching into habit logging or workout sessions. Step Tracker - Pedometer sits between the two with habit reminders and training logs alongside core step counting, giving you a fuller activity picture without requiring extra hardware.

Built for users who want automated step logging without complexity. The app is free with no login requirement, but ads appear throughout and in-app purchases range from $1.49 to $39.99 for premium features. If your device’s power settings interfere with sensor access, you’ll need to whitelist the app or accept gaps in your step history.
