How to see your step count on the Apple Watch watch face

Apple Watch’s built-in Fitness app doesn’t show step counts on the watch face, only mileage.

To display steps, users need a third-party pedometer app such as StepsApp, Steps, or Pedometer++.

Install the app on the iPhone, add it to the Apple Watch through the Watch app, then choose a compatible face like Modular or Modular Compact.

After that, the step-count complication can appear directly on the watch face for quicker daily activity tracking.
