-“Explore:” Groups & challenges
-“Me:” Track weight, habits and more. Sync w/ Fitbit and Garmin.
-“Plan:” Daily exercise plans for your health goals

For Better Accuracy:
1. Go to "Pedometer Preferences" and adjust the Pedometer mode if the step counter is not accurately tracking steps
2. Add our app to your cleaning tool’s "ignore" list so the step tracker doesn't get shut down
3. No two people walk the same. Adjust step counter sensitivity if needed to improve walking tracker accuracy

Important Note:
Some phones can’t count steps if the screen is off or locked. We try hard to support as many phones as we can. If these steps don’t solve your problem, your device could be the issue. Email our support and we’ll work hard to get your step counting back on track.

The app serves the purpose I originally needed, but since you can't change your step goal without going premium, I can't put it above two stars anymore. Mine is stuck at 6,000 and due to multiple foot surgeries, I'm no longer capable of that, but I can't change it without going premium. Otherwise, the app works well and if this weren't an issue, I'd put it back at four or five stars.

For 3-4 years I had this app connected to another app and it worked. Now it won't do that because it's blocked behind a pay wall. I literally don't get paid enough to pay for something that was once free to do. I'm debating if I should keep the app or not because it took me 2-3 days, uninstalling, reinstalling and switching the connection to my other app off to find out about the pay wall. I would happily see ads in the app if it meant that I had it work as before. I don't always have my phone.

helpful motivational tool: "competing" with other users all over the world keeps me going even when I want to slack off sometimes. I like the variety of ways to visibly track your progress and compare against your own as well as others' stats/data. Even at the free, ad supported level, there are enough features to motivate me to consistency in a way that is fun and social with some competition. Just the right amount of challenge without becoming too overwhelming.
