How it works
- Your pet’s health follows your progress to your daily step goal. Hit it and they’re thriving; skip it and they’re sad, never gone.
- Eggs appear on the map at real parks, cafés and landmarks. Walk to one to collect it, and your steps warm it until it hatches.
- Friends, a weekly leaderboard and Duo Challenges make walking social. Streaks and daily quests keep it daily.
