A step challenge built for iPhone.
Global Steps is the step challenge for iPhone walkers. Auto-sync from Apple Health, live worldwide leaderboards, Apple Watch friendly — and tiny on battery.
A step challenge on iPhone should feel native. Global Steps uses Apple Health for step data, the iPhone motion coprocessor for counts, and Apple Watch data when you wear one — no separate watch app, no GPS drain, no manual sync. Just walk.
