A pedometer app that races the world.
Global Steps is the pedometer app that turns your daily step count into a live worldwide race. Auto-sync from Apple Health, rank against walkers worldwide across rolling 24-hour, 7-day, and 30-day windows.
A basic pedometer app gives you a number. Global Steps gives you the same number with worldwide context — and three rolling races that keep ordinary walking competitive without ever needing to set up a group.
Why walkers pick Global Steps
Steps come straight from Apple Health and iPhone's motion coprocessor. Nothing to start or stop.
Every step pushes your pedometer total up (or down) the global leaderboard.
24-hour, 7-day, and 30-day windows mean there's always an active pedometer competition.
Pro unlocks per-country pedometer rankings — race the walkers near you.
Hit a milestone on the pedometer — First 10K, Marathon Day, 7-Day Streak — and Global Steps marks it.
No background pedometer service. Global Steps reads what iPhone already records.

FAQ
Yes. Global Steps acts as a pedometer app by reading your step counts from Apple Health — and adds live global leaderboards so every step has stakes.
Steps continue to be counted by iPhone offline; Global Steps syncs them to the global leaderboard the next time you have a connection.
Most pedometer apps show you a daily number. Global Steps shows you the same number plus where it ranks against walkers worldwide on three rolling time windows.
No. There is no background pedometer to run — iPhone is already counting steps, and Global Steps just reads them via HealthKit when you open the app.
