Step competitionswith your friends.

Your iPhone is already counting. Lockstep puts the number on a leaderboard and lets somebody beat you with it.

Free on the App Store. iPhone only — it reads the steps Health already holds.

The Lockstep home screen: 14,472 steps against a 10,000 daily goal, a 30-day streak, and a ring for each day this week.
A competition leaderboard: Sam, Walker and Quinn on a podium, then the full standings, each with the note they left on the day.
How it works

01

Sign in, connect Health, pick a username.

Sign in with Apple. Lockstep asks Health for one thing — your daily step total — and never writes back.

02

Start a competition and send the link.

A week, a month, a custom range, a head-to-head, or a race to a step target.

03

Steps sync on their own.

Including overnight. Nobody has to remember to log anything.

04

Leave a note on a day.

Take a rest day and say so.

Choosing a competition format: weekly, monthly, a custom range, head-to-head, or a race to a step target.
What it does not do

No ads, no tracking.

No analytics, and nothing sold to anybody.

Step counts, nothing else.

It reads your step count from Health — no routes, no workouts, no heart rate — and never writes back.

No public profiles, no feed.

Only people you compete with see your steps.

Set out in full on the privacy page.

Want the next version first?

New versions go to the TestFlight beta before they reach the App Store. Anybody can join it: open the link on your iPhone and TestFlight takes it from there.
