GeoStride: Virtual Walking

Walk from Paris to Rome, London to Edinburgh, or Mumbai to Goa — using the steps you already take every day. GeoStride is a step counter, pedometer and virtual walking challenge that moves you along a real route on a real map, so you can walk around the world one ordinary day at a time.

HOW IT WORKS
Pick any start and destination in the world. GeoStride plots a genuine walking route along real roads and paths. Your daily steps from the pedometer move your marker along it — the commute, the dog walk, the trip to the shops all count automatically. No workouts to start, nothing to log.

A VIRTUAL WALK ACROSS THE WORLD
Every milestone names the real town or city your walk has reached. The first ones come quickly; crossing a country takes real commitment. It is the motivation of a long-distance walking challenge, built from ordinary days.

WALK. HATCH. REPEAT.
Walking earns eggs — at distance marks, for step-goal streaks and for finishing a journey. Hit your daily step goal to incubate them, hatch a creature, and walk with it as it grows. A walking game that rewards consistency, not intensity.

NO GPS, EVER
GeoStride never asks for your location — the location permission is removed from the app entirely. Distance comes from your step count, so a treadmill walk counts exactly the same as one outdoors.

STEP COUNTER THAT WORKS ON ANY ANDROID
On Android 14 and later, steps come from Health Connect. On older phones GeoStride uses your phone's built-in step sensor — one permission, nothing extra to install.

SEE YOUR PROGRESS
Average steps a day, total distance walked, weekly charts, a 90-day activity heatmap, streaks and every journey you have finished.

STEP CHALLENGE WITH FRIENDS
Create or join a group and race your friends on a shared step leaderboard. Optional — a group sees only your chosen name, avatar and step counts.
