Users set a goal to reach a World Heritage site, so the application encourages walking and helps users get exercise. It may even help you study for the World Heritage Examination!
■ There are over 100 registered World Heritage sites!
A total of more than 100 World Heritage sites in Asia, Europe, South America, Africa, Oceania, and North and Central America can be visited on the app. Users can freely select the World Heritage sites they wish to visit. All they have to do is walk with their phone! The app counts the number of steps you take and moves you to your destination.
■ A simple pedometer function is included! You can immediately check the number of steps taken and calories burned in a day!

■ A step count calendar is also included! Check your monthly step count!
You can check the number of steps you have taken each month on the step count calendar. If the target number of steps has been reached, the gauge will be maxed out and a check mark will be added.

■ Designed to conserve your phone's battery, so you can go out with peace of mind!
To reduce battery consumption, the number of steps is not monitored in real time. The number of steps is not monitored even when the app is in the background. The app is designed to acquire the number of steps only when the number of steps is necessary due to user operations while the app is in the foreground, thus reducing the battery consumption of the smartphone. Compared to conventional pedometers, which consume large amounts of battery power, this energy-saving design allows you to use the app with peace of mind.
