- Step up has been impactful to many youths, especially comrades enabling them share good memories resulting to a good connection.
"Have you joined Step Up? How many steps do you take in a day?" These questions have become common among teenagers and adults alike in Kenya today.
The introduction of Step Up, a fun app that allows users to track their daily steps, has recently gained popularity among Kenyan youth, many of whom have turned it into a competitive challenge.
This app has fostered connections, leading to new friendships. A casual survey of smartphones today reveals that about 75% of teenagers have downloaded this engaging app, enjoying the fun of participation.
Step Up has significantly influenced people's lives, as walking is an excellent form of exercise. By focusing on daily step counts, many users have walked miles to ensure their steps are recorded, promoting body fitness, which is vital for good health.
However, the Step Up challenge has posed difficulties for bodaboda riders. Take, for example, a student who has embraced Step Up and wants to compete with friends. This student might choose to walk to school instead of taking a motorcycle, aiming to boost their step count. Consequently, this shift has created challenges for the bodaboda industry.
Despite these issues, Step Up has positively impacted many youths, particularly university students, by bringing them together and allowing them to create lasting memories and connections.
