iPhone app, coming soon

Every step on your walking pad, counted.

StrideTap runs your walking treadmill from your iPhone and saves the steps it counts to Apple Health.

Your Watch can't see your feet.

At a walking desk your arms barely swing, so your Apple Watch misses steps. Apple Health counts one source at a time, so that lower number can hide your treadmill's. StrideTap saves the treadmill's own count and checks that Health is using it.

Real steps, never estimated.

The step count your treadmill keeps goes to Apple Health, with distance, time and calories.

Not on the list? Teach it.

If your treadmill sends data over Bluetooth, StrideTap can learn where it keeps its step count. It takes about a minute.

  1. 01

    Pick your treadmill

    Choose it from the Bluetooth devices StrideTap finds nearby.

  2. 02

    Walk for 30 seconds

    Start the belt with its own remote and walk normally.

  3. 03

    Step off for 15 seconds

    StrideTap finds the number that stops when you do. From then on, its steps go to Apple Health.

StrideTap's Add Your Treadmill screen: Let's find your treadmill. Switch it on, close its own app, and keep its remote handy.

Questions, answered.

Which treadmills work with StrideTap?

KingSmith WalkingPad, UREVO, DeerRun and PitPat, Egofit and other FitShow pads, LifeSpan, and Bluetooth treadmills that work with Zwift or Kinomap. The full list, model by model, is on the compatibility page. If yours isn't there, you can teach StrideTap your treadmill in the app.

Why doesn't my Apple Watch count my steps on a walking pad?

Your Watch counts steps from your arm swing. At a walking desk your hands rest on the keyboard, so it misses many of them. Your treadmill counts steps at the belt, and StrideTap saves that count to Apple Health.

Does StrideTap estimate steps?

No. StrideTap only saves steps your treadmill measured. If your treadmill doesn't count steps, StrideTap shows the steps from your iPhone or Watch instead and never invents a number.

Do I need an account?

No. There's no account, no ads and no tracking. Your walks stay on your iPhone and in Apple Health.

When can I get StrideTap?

StrideTap is coming soon to the App Store for iPhone. Email us to join the beta, especially if you own a treadmill marked Beta on the compatibility page.

Is it safe to control the belt from my phone?

StrideTap only moves the belt when you tap Start, change the speed or use one of your shortcuts, and it uses your treadmill's own start sequence, including its countdown. Keep the remote within reach and follow your treadmill's safety instructions.

Every step, counted.

StrideTap is coming soon to iPhone. Join the beta and help us test your treadmill.
