Walk to post.

The Fine Print

No loopholes.

We thought of everything you'd try. Here's why it won't work.

🌙

Midnight Reset

Everything zeroes out at midnight local time. Today's steps are today's posts. Yesterday doesn't count.

🚫

No Banking

Can't stockpile 50K steps on Sunday and shitpost all week. Unused posts expire. Move daily or stay silent.

Verified Badges

Every post carries a server-verified fitness badge via AT Protocol labels. Visible to everyone on Bluesky.

📊

Pick Your Metric

Steps, distance, calories, or active minutes. Runners, walkers, cyclists, gym rats—everyone has a lane.

The Badge

Proof you touched grass.

Every StepSky post gets a verified fitness badge that shows up on any Bluesky client. Powered by an AT Protocol labeler. Others can see exactly how many steps backed your hot take.

Your health data stays on your device. Only the daily total is sent for badge verification.

FAQ

Yeah but what if I—

No.

Can't I just use the normal Bluesky app?

Yep. StepSky doesn't stop you. But your posts won't have the badge, and you'll know deep down that you didn't earn them.

What if I shake my phone really hard?

Health data comes from Apple Health or Google Health Connect. Shaking your phone like a maraca won't fool the accelerometer. We checked.

Does it work on a treadmill?

If your phone's health app counts it, StepSky counts it. Treadmill, trail, pacing during a meeting—steps are steps.

Is this a joke?

The code is real. The server is live. The badges are verified. Whether it's a joke is between you and your step count.

Touch grass.
Then post about it.

StepSky is free and open source. Coming to iOS and Android. Drop your email and we'll let you know when it's ready.
