Every step you take is a step through Middle-earth.
Lord of the Steps is a fantasy pedometer that turns your daily walking into an epic 2,865 km journey: from a cozy hole in the Shire all the way to the fires of Mount Doom.
HOW IT WORKS
The app counts your real steps via HealthKit or your phone's built-in pedometer. Every kilometer you walk advances you along a route through 18 iconic locations: Bree, Rivendell, Moria, Lothlórien, Helm's Deep, and more.
The landscape around you changes — 50 unique zones with scenic backgrounds reflect your real progress. You literally see the world transform with every step.
FEATURES
• Step counter with auto-sync — counts steps in the background, even when the app is closed
• 18 route milestones — from Hobbiton to Mount Doom
• 50 landscape zones — the app background changes as you progress
• Groups — create parties with friends and track everyone's progress
• Challenges — compete with friends: who walks the most in a week, who hits the step or distance goal first
• Home screen widget — steps, kilometers, and route progress right on your home screen
• Achievement notifications — know when you reach a new milestone or enter a new zone
• Statistics — step charts for the week, month, and all time
• Reminders — customizable nudges if you haven't walked in a while
WHY LORD OF THE STEPS
Unlike regular pedometers, we give your steps meaning. These aren't just numbers — it's a journey you want to follow.
Group challenges add a competitive edge: invite friends via link and find out who walks the most.
The home screen widget shows your progress without opening the app — you always know where you are on the route.
PRIVACY
We don't collect your location data. The app only counts steps. No ads. No ad trackers.
