Confirm steps StepforMiles
Steps4Miles automatically records your movement through Apple Health. Only when you confirm your steps in the app are they taken into account for the designated rankings, challenges and rewards.
Fair stays fair.
Taken into account
Real movement
Steps provided through Apple Health that meet the technical checks of Steps4Miles.
Not taken into account
Manually entered steps
Steps added manually in Apple Health are excluded from confirmation and step-based rewards.
Checked
Implausible values
Technically unusual or implausible step counts may be limited or not fully taken into account for confirmation.
This explains anti-cheat without making the website feel like a security manual.

Every step counts — rewards still have a limit.

Good to know
Can I confirm steps that have already been confirmed?
No. Steps already taken into account are not credited a second time for the same activity.
Are steps confirmed automatically?
No. Confirmation is deliberately triggered by the user in the Steps4Miles app.
Can I confirm steps through the website?
No. Step confirmation takes place exclusively within the Steps4Miles app.
What happens to steps above the reward limit?
They are not lost. They remain available for statistics, rankings and your actual daily progress; only additional step-based reward credits stop at the specified limit.
Why does Steps4Miles check step counts?
Because rankings, challenges and rewards should remain as fair as possible for all users.
Confirm steps: The essentials at a glance
Confirming steps makes your recorded movement usable for the designated rankings and rewards. Apple Health provides the basis. Confirmed steps are not counted twice; the reward limit restricts step-based rewards, not your statistics. Learn more about the subsequent rewards under Collect StepCoins.
