Ridiculous Steps: Walk to the Moon. Together.
Ridiculous Steps is a minimal step counter with a terminal look. It reads your steps from your iPhone and Apple Watch and compares them with ridiculously big things: how many Eiffel Towers you climbed today, how far you are from the Moon, and how long it would take you to walk the Great Wall of China.

One Route for Everyone
An endless line that starts the day you open the app. Scroll along it and pass more than 150 milestones: the Burj Khalifa, the Mariana Trench and back, the Camino de Santiago, the edge of space, the Moon… all the way to Proxima Centauri. A glowing green diamond shows where you are, and a hollow one where most people are.
250+ Absurd Goals
"Go up and down the Eiffel Tower 100 times." "Go around the Colosseum 10 times." "Walk to the Moon." Pick any of them and see how long it would take at your pace: sometimes four days, sometimes 177 years.
Progress in Plain Text
Progress bars made of characters, steps to go and your pace, all in a monospace font. Goals count everything you walked from the day you chose them, including that same day.
Keep Your Trophies
Every goal you complete stays in your collection with its date. Six languages, kilometres or miles, and one daily comparison that types itself out like a terminal.
Free to Walk
Counting steps, the daily comparison and the global route are free. A single payment unlocks the ridiculous goals and your collection. No subscription, no ads.

- My steps show 0. Open iPhone Settings > Health > Data Access & Devices > Ridiculous Steps and allow Steps and Walking + Running Distance.
- Why don't my old steps count? On purpose: everything counts from the day you start. You can start again from zero in Settings.
- I don't see "most people" on the route. It needs Game Center: sign in at iPhone Settings > Game Center.
- I bought the goals but they're locked. Open Settings in the app and tap "Restore purchase".
Please walk safely: look up from your phone in traffic.
If a million people walked every day for a year, together they'd reach Saturn. I wanted an app that makes your daily walk feel a bit more epic and a lot more absurd, with nothing on the screen that doesn't need to be there.
