Measure your treadmill cadence with the phone mic—no watch, footpod, or chest strap.

Treadmill Cadence listens to footstrike sound on the belt and shows steps per minute (SPM) in a floating overlay. Put the phone on the treadmill shelf, start measuring, then open YouTube or any video app. The cadence bar stays on top so you can keep pace while you watch.

WHY CADENCE
Keeping a steady cadence (often around 170–180 SPM) helps many runners stay efficient and reduce overstriding. This app makes that number visible without buying another sensor.

HOW IT WORKS
• Uses the microphone to detect footstrikes on the treadmill
• Shows live SPM with a target you set
• Color zones: on target / close / off pace
• Floating overlay over other apps (optional)
• Session history with average, min, max, and a cadence timeline
• Mic sensitivity control for quiet or noisy gyms
• Audio is processed on the device and is not uploaded

QUICK START
1. Allow microphone (and notifications if prompted)
2. Allow “Display over other apps” if you want the floating bar
3. Place the phone on the treadmill console/shelf
4. Set your target SPM and tap Start
5. Open a video app and run—drag the bar to move it, tap it to return here

TIPS
• Best on a treadmill shelf aimed toward the belt
• Use headphones for music/video so the mic hears your steps, not the speakers
• Raise mic sensitivity in a quiet room; lower it if gym noise causes false steps
• Pause or stop from the overlay notification or the app
