Ratings and reviews

Absolutely not usable. Every update gets worse than the previous one. The last one keeps crashing, which stops steps being counted of course. And even though it doesn't work, it still drains the phone battery. It seems they do not run any test at all before releasing. Unfortunately, it is totally useless as it is. Update Feb 03, 2021: another update making things worse... the app can't even stay in Activity page. It's been more than 1 year now, about to give up on this app.

Overall, a good looking app, simple and straightforward in terms of what I've used it for so far, which is where the second star comes from. However I can't figure out what the point is, all the accumulated coins for spending reset at the end of the day. No, this isn't me misunderstanding how it works or where it's displayed - the total wallet value literally only ever displays the current days coins, meaning the rest disappear completely. So, all in all, rendering the app completely useless

It's been a month since I installed the app but couldn't use it for a single day. The loading page takes longer than the waiting duration my patience allows. (1star) Edit: I am now using the app. I love the products in marketplace. But here's a huge let down: All the coins I earn in a day is lost by the end of the day. It takes efforts to walk miles and it's heartbreaking to lose all the hard earned coins. I am really hoping the next update would bring back all the old lost coins. (2 stars)
