Progress
A bond, never a streak
Built for
Home and Lock Screen widgets
Starts with
A free corgi
Private by design
No account or tracking
Widget At A Glance
Your walking buddy lives where you already look.
Add Pupstep to your Home Screen or Lock Screen and keep today's progress close. The app guides you through widget setup, and opening Pupstep refreshes the latest saved Apple Health progress.
Walks, Not Workouts
Build a bond, not a streak.
Completed active days move your bond forward. Quiet days never erase progress. Pupstep is for the walk around the block, the long way home, and the small check-in that feels more rewarding than another dashboard.
-
Permanent progress
Every completed active day counts toward your bond, with no reset or guilt mechanic.
-
Walk memories
Keep a simple, on-device record of active days and the moments you reached together.
-
Rewards you earn
Complete three active days to earn the Cozy Scarf, then share a milestone only if you choose.
Make It Yours
Start with a corgi. Make your walking buddy yours.
Corgi and the full walking experience are included. French Bulldog, Jack Russell, All Dogs, and individual accessories are optional one-time purchases through the App Store.

Private By Design
Your Health progress is for your dog, not for ads.
Pupstep reads Apple Health steps and walking/running distance only after you grant permission. The app does not create accounts, sell data, show ads, track you across apps or websites, or upload Health data to a server.

Questions
The practical details.
Does Pupstep need an account?
No. Pupstep does not require account creation.
Does Pupstep upload Health data?
No. Apple Health steps and walking/running distance are used on device to update the app and widget.
Will the widget update instantly?
iOS controls widget refresh timing. Opening Pupstep refreshes the latest saved progress snapshot.
Are paid purchases required?
No. Corgi, bond progress, memories, widgets, and the core walking experience are included. Paid breeds and accessories are optional one-time cosmetic purchases processed by Apple through the App Store.
What happens if I miss a day?
Nothing is taken away. Pupstep has no streak to reset; the bond only moves forward when you complete another active day.
Is this medical or fitness advice?
No. Pupstep is for casual motivation and personalization, not medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, coaching, or safety information.
