Guys give me some decent apps for step counting. I just want something that can run in the background without 1. Using up all of my battery, and 2. I don't have to constantly turn it off and on. Bonus if it has a few bells and whistles.

I like using a wrist fitness tracker. My fit bit (5?) died recently. I'm looking to replace it and interested in what others are using too.
I liked the fitbit because it's small and focused on health/fitness, not an integrated wrist phone and internet device. It syncs with an app. The charge lasts for days. It tracks other health metrics. I didn't monitor all of them, but I noticed that many of them went out-of-range when I got Covid a few years ago before I even had symptoms.
I go hikiing, sometimes alone and in areas without cell coverage, and considered getting something with an emergency gps sender. Maybe I'll just get a separate device. Someone, maybe my brother, also told me that 911 and law enforcement can track your cell even in some cases when you can't make a call.

I just carry my iphone with me. It does a good job, and provides music :-) And I don’t have to turn it on or anything. Seems reasonably accurate.
