Questions about Steady

No. Steady has no account, no sign-up and no login, and it never asks for your name or email address. You install it and start a session. See A Kegel App Without an Account: What That Means. If you buy Steady Pro, the purchase belongs to the Google account you use in the Play Store.

No. Your training is never uploaded, sold or shared, and there is no Steady server. Your training history stays on this phone: it is excluded from Android cloud backup. Purchases go through Google Play. There are no ads and no analytics of your training. If you export or back up your sessions, the file goes only where you choose. See Where is my Steady data kept?

Your training and the free sessions work without a connection. Buying, restoring and checking Steady Pro need Google Play. Steady keeps Google Play's last answer on your phone, so Pro keeps working for up to 7 days when Google Play can't be reached.

Steady doesn't set a target. It offers sessions from 45 seconds (Quick squeezes) to about 4½ minutes (Advanced), and one Steady 28 day of about 1 to 4 minutes. Your own routines use timings you choose, and you can type your own daily goal in Settings, or leave it off. For how much is right for you, speak with a healthcare professional. See How Many Kegels a Day? What Public Sources Say.

Steady doesn't measure results; it records the sessions you complete. You see your streak, your sessions and minutes, and the days you trained. For questions about your body or your health, please speak with your doctor.

The app is called just "Steady" on your phone. You write your own reminder text; the default is "Time for your Steady session". The discreet widget shows only "Steady · today's session". On Android 13 and newer, you can hide Steady's preview in your recent apps.

Not yet. Steady is on Android only, through Google Play.

Save a backup on the old phone: in Settings, under Your data, tap Save a backup and choose a place you can reach from the new phone. On the new phone, tap Restore from a backup and choose the file. Your sessions and routines are added; nothing is deleted. It's free, and Steady doesn't upload the file. Your history isn't in Android cloud backup, so it can't be restored from your Google account. Steady Pro follows your Google account: tap Restore purchases. See How to export, back up and restore your Steady data.
