Want to know how many steps you take in a day? The Steps With Mario app gives you a fun way to count your steps.

It shows you how close you can get to saving the princess, which is said to be 3.4 miles. Stay moving and we’re sure you can reach that in no time. We’re not getting the port of the game yet on mobile so this is as close as we can get for now.
