AI coach
It has read your last month.
Your weak weekday, your best week, last night's sleep if your watch shares it. Plain answers about walking, water and jollof — not a diet plan.
I keep missing my goal on Sundays. Why?
Sunday is your quietest day, about 3,100 against 8,000 the rest of the week, and you slept 5h last night. Try a 20-minute walk after church before the heat, and count that as the win.
No new gadget.
No battery drain.
No excuses left.
Free. Forever, for steps.
Your friends are already walking.
Install, sign in, connect your health app. Your steps from today are already counted. Then send one link.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
No. Your phone counts steps on its own and that's enough. A watch or band adds distance, sleep and resting heart rate when it shares them with Apple Health or Health Connect.
No. WakaBuddy reads the totals your phone or watch is already collecting. It doesn't run its own GPS.
Any iPhone through Apple Health. Any Android through Health Connect — Samsung, Pixel, Xiaomi, Tecno, Infinix and the rest — plus whatever writes into it: Galaxy Watch, Mi Band, Fitbit, Garmin, Amazfit.
Steps, challenges, groups and chat are free and will stay free. The AI coach will become a paid extra later.
Daily step totals, distance and the vitals you choose to share, kept per day so leaderboards and streaks work. No selling, no ads. Disconnect any source in Settings and it stops immediately. The full policy is a tap away below.
