Terms of use

Last updated 5 October 2026

These terms cover the Summit Steps app and this website. By using the app you agree to them.

What Summit Steps is

Summit Steps turns your everyday steps into progress along a virtual version of a real trek. It is for motivation and fun. It is not medical advice, a fitness programme or a guide for walking the real routes: distances and altitudes follow the real trails, but the app does not prepare you for them.

Check with a doctor before changing how much you exercise if you have any health concerns, and pay attention to your surroundings when you walk.

Free plan and Summit Pro

Prices can differ by country and may change. A price change never applies to a period you have already paid for.

Your steps

Progress is based on the step data your phone provides through Apple Health or Health Connect. We can’t guarantee that data is complete or accurate, and progress stored on your phone can be lost if you delete the app or change phones.

Our content and yours

The app, its trek descriptions and its postcard artwork belong to Summit Steps. You’re welcome to share the postcards and story cards you earn. Please don’t copy, resell or redistribute the rest.

Changes and availability

We may add, change or retire treks and features, and we may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version.

Liability

The app is provided as it is. To the extent the law allows, Summit Steps is not liable for indirect losses arising from using it. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law where you live.
