Walkmeter

Smarter walking workouts with deep stats and training tools

Walkmeter is designed for people who see walking and hiking as serious workouts rather than casual strolls. It turns your device into a full-featured fitness computer, capturing an impressive amount of data while still feeling approachable for everyday use.

The core experience revolves around highly customizable workout screens. You can swipe across a stopwatch-style interface to switch between maps, real-time statistics, graphs, and split summaries. Everything from which metrics are displayed to how they’re arranged can be tailored, which is a major plus for data-hungry walkers and hikers.

GPS tracking is accurate and stable, logging pace, distance, elevation and route details. Automatic stop detection is particularly useful in urban settings, where traffic lights and pauses could otherwise distort your stats. Integrated Google Maps support lets you view terrain and traffic, handy for both planning and following routes outdoors.

Where Walkmeter really stands out is in training and analysis. It supports interval workouts ranging from simple repeats to complex pyramid or tempo sessions. You can define zones and performance targets, then hear spoken announcements about distance, time, speed, elevation or heart rate as you move, keeping you informed without needing to look at the screen.

Workout history is well-organized by calendar, route, and activity type, and there are clear bar and pie charts to help you spot trends over weeks or months. Support for heart rate, bike speed, cadence and power sensors also makes it a strong option for cross-training.

The main caveat is that many of the most advanced tools sit behind the Elite upgrade, and the wealth of options can feel overwhelming at first. However, if you’re committed to walking, hiking or multi-sport training and want deep insights rather than just step counts, Walkmeter is a powerful and reliable companion.
