StepTrace
A walk still counts even when your phone or watch was not there to record it. Add the steps manually, confirm your stride length, and decide whether to sync the result with Apple Health or Health Connect.

Core Experience
Restore the activities your device did not record.
StepTrace focuses on preserving walking and running activity that would otherwise be missing.
Estimate distance
Distance is calculated from step count and stride length, then displayed in metres or kilometres.
Flexible stride length
Use a default, a height-based estimate, a manual value, or a calibrated distance.
Optional health sync
Nothing is written to Apple Health or Health Connect until you review and confirm it.
Duplicate protection
Local records and sync state help prevent repeated writes after rapid taps or retries.
Works offline
Activities remain on your device when a health platform is unavailable and can be synced later.
Privacy by Design
Your health activity is not sent to advertising systems.
StepTrace has no developer-operated health database. Step, distance, time, stride and notes remain on your device and are not added to ad requests.
- Local by default: activity records are stored on your device.
- You control sync: health data is written only after confirmation.
- Reversible: permissions can be revoked and records created by the app can be deleted.
Estimate notice: Distance is calculated as steps Γ stride length. It is not a GPS measurement and should not be the sole basis for medical, insurance, competition, or other important decisions.
