Does StepMax work without an internet connection?

Step counting works fully offline using your phone's built-in motion sensors. You only need a connection for leaderboards, events and cloud backup.

Will StepMax drain my battery?

No. StepMax reads your phone's hardware step sensor instead of GPS, so battery impact is minimal even with all-day tracking.
