Buttercup

Make every hour bloom.

Buttercup turns your daily step goal into a few short walks across the day. Walk, and your buddy grows a little island that's only yours.

Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play

How it works

Small walks that add up

A goal that fits your day

Your goal is split into quests across the hours you're awake. Most take a few minutes.

A buddy that grows

Every walk earns XP, and Pip, Sunny or Mallow grow from a tiny bud to full bloom.

An island of your own

Reach your goal and your buddy hands you a gift. Plant flowers, build homes and watch it grow.

Strolls with friends

Invite a friend for a short walk. You'll see when they join and when they walk.

Your steps stay yours

  • Buttercup only reads your step count.
  • No location, no ads, and nothing is sold.
  • Friends see your first name and the walk, never your steps.

Help Buttercup keep growing

Buttercup is made independently, with no ads. If it gets you walking a little more, you can chip in to help keep it going and growing.
