I already get plenty of steps in on a daily basis, but this has certainly encouraged me to do more. Feedback and actual user data determine a lot about what happens to Steppin, so for now, I’m using it every day to do my part. But Steppin could include a lot more than just new versions, functionality tweaks, or streaks over time.
