Hello Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for the most accurate app for a pedometer? I'd like to download it to my phone. I have an android. Thanks!

    Hi,

    The one is use which is free (an on android) is called endometer and i use it only when out for walks as it uses GPS signal and calculates distance and calorie burn but not steps.

    My wife has three installed; I don't think she has a favorite yet.

    I use the runtastic apps. There is a pedometer which I use for indoors and a GPS mapping one called runtastic for outdoor use. If I am not mistaken they are available for both OS and have both free and paid versions. Runtastic also links to MFP.

    I like runtastic. I used to use Endomondo, but found the calorie burns a bit inflated.

    I love Runkeeper. It doesn't track actual steps, but uses GPS to track walking, running, cycling, whatever. It is very accurate in calories burned according to my HRM. I use Fitbit for steps.
