Free UK walking app. Track steps across Britain. Pedometer & journey map.
Free walking app UK - UK Walk Nomad turns your daily steps into a virtual journey across Britain. This pedometer & step tracker connects to Health Connect and maps your walks from Orkney to Land's End. Build a walking habit while exploring England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
"UK Walk Nomad" is a walking-habit app that turns the steps you actually take each day into a virtual journey on the map, from Birsay on Orkney in the far north all the way to Land's End in Cornwall. By giving your daily walk a "journey" as its goal, walking becomes more fun and easier to keep up.
■ Your steps become real distance UK Walk Nomad connects with Health Connect and automatically reads the steps recorded by your phone or wearable device. Every step you take moves you further along the map, heading south through Scotland, England and beyond. Switch between kilometres and miles in Settings.
■ Choose your own path The destination is fixed, but the route there is entirely up to you. Take as many detours as you like along the way.
■ A journey past famous landmarks Famous sights from all across the UK appear along your route, including Edinburgh Castle, Loch Ness, the Isle of Skye, Stonehenge, the Roman Baths at Bath, Big Ben, the Tower of London, the White Cliffs of Dover, St Michael's Mount and the Giant's Causeway. Walk close enough to one and you'll earn a badge tied to that place.
■ Milestone towns along the way Keep an eye out for signposts on the road south, with milestone badges at Wick, Inverness, Edinburgh, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Plymouth, Penzance and more.
■ Arukyun shares local comments When you arrive at a new place, Arukyun, the app's original alien character who is obsessed with the UK, shares fun local facts and comments about it, with notes prepared for all 361 local authority districts, so it feels like you're really visiting.
■ Ferries across the water Real crossings are recreated along the way: the Pentland Firth ferry between Orkney and the mainland, and the Cairnryan to Belfast ferry to Northern Ireland. You can't cut straight across open water. Your journey realistically follows the coastline and these routes.
■ Conquer the map Your Coverage Map fills in as you reach each local authority district. Earn conquest badges for Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland, then for the whole UK.
■ Reach the goal, then turn around and go again Once you reach Land's End (or Orkney), you turn around and start a new lap. You earn a goal badge for every lap, so every journey feels fresh.
■ Find places nearby See what's around your current position on the map and open it in Google Maps, which can double as inspiration for planning a real trip.
■ Free version and Full Version The free version lets you walk freely around Orkney, where your journey begins. Upgrade to the Full Version (one-time purchase, no subscription) to unlock the rest of the journey across Great Britain and Northern Ireland, plus nearby places and the full badge collection.
■ NEW: Japanese Walking Timer A built-in timer for interval walking (“Japanese Walking”): repeat 3 minutes of brisk walking and 3 minutes of easy walking, or choose a 15-minute continuous brisk walk. Countdown beeps, a tempo sound and vibration guide your pace, and after each brisk segment your phone's step sensor checks whether you really walked fast. Your weekly sessions and total completed sessions are recorded too.
