✦FAQ
Questions, answered.
Is StepIsland free?
Yes. StepIsland is free to download with a companion, a world, live step tracking, widgets and Apple Watch. The weekly step goal, rest days, the Streak shield, friends, leagues and Walk Together are all free too. StepIsland Plus unlocks every world and companion, full companion reactions and deeper history, with a 7-day free trial.
What’s new in StepIsland 2.1?
A weekly step goal with rest days and a Streak shield, redesigned level-based leagues, a friends board with kudos, Walk Together shared walks in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen, dark mode, a new look for Sprout, gift codes and, for a limited time, the Halloween in Pumpkin Hollow event.
How does the weekly step goal work?
Instead of hitting the same number every day, you set a total for the week, such as 70,000 steps. StepIsland shows the pace you need today, lets you plan up to three rest days, and a free Streak shield saves your streak automatically once a week if you miss a day.
What is Walk Together?
Invite a friend to a shared walk and your two companions walk side by side in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen. A Live Activity counts the steps you take together, stride for stride, and shows each of your shares.
How do leagues work?
Every week you walk in a league with people at your level, across five tiers from Seedling to Summit. Leagues reset every Monday. The top three move up and nobody moves down. StepIsland pacers at your level fill spots until more people join.
Does it work on Apple Watch, the Lock Screen and the Dynamic Island?
Yes. StepIsland has an Apple Watch app, Home Screen widgets and a Live Activity that shows your companion and progress on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island on supported iPhones.
Does StepIsland have dark mode?
Yes. Choose System, Light or Dark under Settings › Appearance in the app. Every screen has a dark look for evening walks.
Where do my steps come from?
From Apple Health, with your permission. StepIsland only asks to read your step count, so it works with your iPhone and Apple Watch automatically. It never writes to Health.
Do I need an account?
No. You can use StepIsland without one. A free Upmoat account is optional and adds friends, leagues and shared walks, and keeps your companion and streak safe across devices.
What happens to my Health data?
Your Health records stay on your iPhone. If you sign in, only your step totals sync so friends you add can see them on the board, in your league and during a shared walk. StepIsland never sells your data or uses it for ads.
How do I redeem a gift code?
Open Settings in StepIsland and tap Redeem a gift code. Gift codes are Apple offer codes, redeemed securely through the App Store.
Can I cancel Plus anytime?
Yes. Subscriptions are handled by Apple. Cancel anytime in Settings › Apple ID › Subscriptions, at least 24 hours before your trial or period ends.
Your island
is waiting.
Free on the App Store for iPhone and Apple Watch. Your companion is ready when you are.
