Frequently Asked Questions

Calories per 10,000 steps?

Burn = distance × weight × 1.036, with stride = height × 0.415: defaults (10,000 steps, 70 kg, 170 cm) cover 7.05 km and burn ≈512 kcal. Heavier walkers and longer strides burn more.

Why do estimates vary?

Height-driven stride, terrain, and body composition shift burn ±30%. Flat treadmill steps cost less than hilly outdoor ones.

Eat back exercise calories?

At most half when losing weight — overestimation stalls deficits. Whole-food refuels beat 'earned' treats.

Is activity data uploaded?

No — math runs locally in your browser. Nothing leaves your device.
