Up until recently this app was so dependable, it counted every step I took. I may not have opened it every day, but when I would open it to update my mules for a distance challenge I'm doing, everything was there. Recently, I opened Pacer, and to my shock, weeks of data were missing. I walk every day with my phone and there was nothing to show for it. It now seems very sporadic and not dependable.

Downloaded the app and uninstalled without using. Unhappy that it forces you to opt into a one week free trial of a premium version which you can cancel without obligation. I'm not interested in the free trial, just want the free version. No thanks, I'll stick with other apps currently using.

I wanted a basic step tracker, and this program used to be that. I'd rated it 5 stars then. Since then, they've gamified it with leagues that you can't exit. Also, you either have to open the app every morning or turn battery saver off. If not, the app stops counting steps. All of this triggers OCD in me. (I look at overall trends, not daily activity). Other step counters work in battery saver mode. I'll be using one of them from now on.
