About this app

The Japanese Walking method is a way to get the most benefit from your daily walk. Studies have shown that people who Japanese Walk have greater health outcomes compared to people who simply walk. A 30 minute Japanese Interval Walk has been shown to be more beneficial than getting your 10,000 steps per day.

To Japanese Walk you need to walk as fast as possible for 3 minutes and then walk slowly for 3 minutes. Repeat this 10 times.

How does this app help? It's a timer. It gives you a notification when you need to speed up or slow down. No need to keep looking at the phone, press the button and get walking.

This app can also give you a reminder of a time to walk. You set this, we will never send you a notification you didn’t ask for.

Japanese Walking has an achievement system to help keep you motivated on your health journey.

Modern app design. Choose from light mode or dark mode. You can even change the app colour (if red isn’t your favourite).

This app takes your privacy very seriously. All the data entered into the app is stored on your device. We couldn’t sell your information even if we wanted to. The app does track app usage data, this is limited to what City you are in and what pages you have looked at. This is optional and can be turned off at any time.

Or a quick summary

- Notifies you to speed up or slow down
- Shows your walk history
- Reminds you to walk
- Gives you achievements for meeting the goals.
- Keeps your data private.

started using this recently, wish there was a feature to use the vibration option on the phone instead of using the sound. my phone is usually on silent. im usually playing music or scrolling on my phone, so I have to keep flipping back to the app. overall not bad.

The app sends notifications for when to change speed. Those should provide some vibration if the phone is on silent

This is exactly what I was looking for in an app for the Japanese walking method. So much easier to use than just using a timer or keeping my eye on the clock. I'm very happy with it and would recommend to anyone who's starting to do japanese interview walking
