    As a hint, I started using the app in the current wave. So I’m not very experienced yet. But as a software tester in Android development I can give some insights on the matter. Step counting itself is likely done somewhere else, like Android or iOS, and the value is read out by Walkspace (developers please correct me). The step counting mechanism also can be inaccurate. For example, taking the bus on a bumpy roads can be counted as steps in some cases. I can try testing it for you tomorrow, as accurately as I possible can without additional tools and only with one phone. I will come back with an average accuracy.


  • Hi, please also check your “saved steps” on character page. When the app is closed, steps you take will still be counted and be saved in the “saved steps”. If there are still saved steps available, the game will count steps doubled until the “saved steps” are empty. Maybe this happened?
