What’s new
Version 1.2.0 · Updated October 18, 2026
This update makes StepHive smarter and more dependable: • Reminders that get you — nudges now reflect how close you are to your goal, and celebrate when you hit it. • Clearer charts — your weekly, monthly, and yearly views now show the step count on every bar. • Tidier widget — the Home Screen widget resets cleanly at the start of each new day. • More reliable sign-in, plus a fix for the walk timer occasionally getting stuck after your phone restarts. Thanks for walking with us!
