Steps++ was a side-project that a friend of mine and I worked on. With the introduction of the Apple Watch, I wanted to experiment with designing an app following Apple's guidelines. My friend who is an iOS developer wanted to try his hands at creating an Apple Watch app with the new version of Xcode. So we decided to work together and work on this project with the primary goal of learning as much as possible about the new Apple Watch.
