    What free app will track my steps on my phone when it's in my handbag? I don't always remember to keep it in my pocket...

    Helloo Everybody, I have only just seen this board so am jumping in today.
    I have been doing challenges since June when I signed up for the Cancer Research 10,000 steps and it really does help to keep one motivated.
    For those of you with S Health, if you have a play with your app you will see challenges in there too, last month was the Tomato Challenge and this month it is the Avocado challenge.
    I have met my 10,000 per day in August already so i have a good start. It's tough when you have a desk job, at present at 16:45 I only have 3567 steps which is very low, even for me, I normally have managed to get nearer 4,500 by this time...anyway 1.9 mile dog walk route here I come, it's about 5000 steps but I might need to do a small loop tonight to hit my 10!

    Aug 3 -- 10,387
    Aug 4 -- 7123
