Managed to finally get it syncronized with s health but that was incredibly difficult and not very intuative to do. Seems to be glitchy with regards to invites and events.

I was hoping this app was going to be the golden ticket for cross platform devices. It wouldn't syn with my Samsung Health. Wouldn't change my weight from kg to lb. Just not there yet
Christina Follansbee
Could you add veryfit for heart rate app to list of devices please?
Shawn Hill
Google fit under devices does not work. Please fix or remove it.
Jan Mill
Doesn't fully support Samsung S. Says it does, but only for steps. What about the rest? Workouts, sleep etc? Was really looking forward to using this app with friends across platforms but it doesn't work.
Victoria Branham
App will not send out invites for a competition I created with my family who all have different devices. They can't find my public challenge to join either! I thought this app would be perfect but at this time it is unusable.

Hi, Jan!
Please bear with us, we are working on enhancing your experience.
We apologize for the temporary inconvenience,

Hi, Victoria!
We are sorry to hear you've been having certain issues.
Finding a public challenge is super easy. Can you please drop us a line via Intercom so we can look into it for you?
Thanks for helping us make inKin better!
Yours,
Team inKin The update to include Samsung is nice, but the data is innacurate. Also the process of getting the app synced with SHealth was pretty difficult.
I have concern with below two points 1. Contest should be filtered by name 2. Contest tab on any of my kin show that he donesnt joined any contest, which is not correct, i believe the tab should list the contest he joined

Hi, M.K.!
Please follow the instructions here to connect your Samsung Health:https://www.inkin.com/chatroom/help/Devices-Metrics-0/How-To-Connect-Samsung-and-S-Health-App
Let us know if you need any further assistance,
Yours,
Team inKin Nice design, but really needs to make it easier to interact with friends. The whole reason for me getting this app is I have friends who are on different brands of fitness devices and want to compete/duel with them. This app supposedly makes this possible but doesn't make it easy to set up at all. Perhaps look at the fit bit app competitions for inspiration.

Hi, Keyna!
Thanks so much for your feedback.
Can you please elaborate on the difficulties you had when connecting to your friends? This will help us to improve service in the future.
Yours,
Team inKin Great app but would add a couple of more devices to sync with such as shealth. It says Samsung but doesn't give your option to connect just says permissions. Second would add an option to manually update steps. It says syncs every hour but if have phone off or something would be easier to just swipe and update steps. Otherwise great and nice design.

Hi, Mitchell!
We've added Samsung:) hope you'll enjoy it!
Good luck with the contests.
Team inKin Pretty good The platform seems very good, the app itself feels like a work in progress, ran into a few bugs with oauth logins. Once logged in everything seems to work as intended. I can see a bright future for this app, but I think it needs a little work.
inKin Social Fitness Platform April 19, 2016
Thanks a lot, Tommy! We will keep up working and working on both web and mobile apps to make it as valuable and fun as possible :) No integration with any fitness app I use No Google Fit, no S Health, no LG Health, none of the extensive suite of UA health/activity tracking apps. A shame, because this interface and idea are so nice.
inKin Social Fitness Platform March 8, 2017
Hi, Allison!
Thanks so much for your feedback. The S Health integration should be available soon!
Please follow us to get the updates:)
Yours,
Team inKin Had hopes but ... The app won't opened. All I get is an error message about connection. Disappointed! (Android galaxy note 3)

Hi, Samantha!
We are so sorry to hear you had this unpleasant experience:(
We are still working on the app, as it has been in beta testing. We've made few significant improvements recently, and it should be working fine now (version 1.5). Please let us know if you have any questions.
Thank you for understanding,
Team inKin This app is totally not compatible with S Health or Samsung Fit bands and S Watches. Totally useless unless you have a fitbit.
inKin Social Fitness Platform January 27, 2017
Hi, Zachery!
Thanks so much for your feedback. The S Health integration is cooking right now and should be available soon!
Please follow us to get the updates:)
Yours,
Team inKin If it worked properly This doesn't log my steps or calories or pretty much anything properly. It will only log about half of what I do if I'm lucky.
inKin Social Fitness Platform January 27, 2017
Hi, Glen!
We are sorry you've had this unpleasant experience with the app.
If you kindly tell us what device you are using, we'll be able to look into this.
Thanks,
Team inKin App will not connect to my Fitbit. It keeps freezing up after login information added. AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

Hi, Brian!
Sorry to hear you had this issue:(
Are you still having trouble connecting your Fitbit account? Confusing I thought I would like this app but now that I'm here I can't even find people from the United States on top of the fact that it doesn't seem to be syncing with my Garmin vivoactiveHR so and it would be awesome if you can make friends and have conversations with the people that you're competing with or challenging otherwise it's just another app to add people that you don't even know from different parts of the world and nobody talking to each other waste of space on my phone UNINSTALLED

Hi, Meredith!
We are sorry you've had such an unpleasant experience using the platform.
We are constantly working on making it better. Hopefully, you'll reconsider in the future.
Yours,
Team inKin Finally everyone can complete. Great that they let most all fitness trackers compete against each other.
inKin Social Fitness Platform April 19, 2016
Thank you, Jason! See you on the platform :) Love the app. It's a great app. Thank you for it. Besides it takes a little plasce in phone memory.

Hi, Shane!
Thanks for your feedback.
You are absolutely right, all these features are not available on our first version. But we will be working to enhance your experience in the future:) Great support for heaps of different fitness wearables. Would definitely recommend!
inKin Social Fitness Platform April 19, 2016
Hi, Jake! Thanks so much for your support :) Good Works how it is supposed to on android and it's awesome it links all the fitness devices!!!
AWESOME APP! Finally one that works for me and my fitness goals!
inKin Social Fitness Platform April 19, 2016
Thank you:) Great idea + motivational Great concept joining the various fitness trackers into one challenge area. No need to worry if you have a different tracking device to friends. This is one of 2 of these sites out there, that I've seen, and inKin is only one with an Android app and pulls across my stats correctly. The app is coming along well and I can monitor my challenges. Very motivational to get focus on those steps, cals, etc. Giving a 5 star rating as it works well and will revisit rating as they develop.
inKin Social Fitness Platform April 19, 2016
Thank so much, Spencer! The credit goes to all our inKin community for an exceptional help and support! Finally an app that is for different devices I've been waiting & looking for an app like this. Being a fan of Misfit & so many others use Fitbit, ect, this allows me to compete with them too. The only reason I'm not going 5 stars is my fellow iPhone users say they go to the website not an app & there is not the app for iPhone / iPad users. I also noticed when I invited my spouse to the app we used the email link to load however no app loaded, I went into the playstore to download it then. Looking forward to improvements from the developers. Thank you.

Hi, Judith! Thank you so much for your review. We do have an iOS app as well, which is in beta testing. Please drop us a line with your email so we can add you to the beta testers list. Buggy but great concept I think it's great to have a single app to compete with your friends while maintaining your preferred band. However, the UI on this app isn't all that great and has very limited options. Also I noticed with me and my friends that we're having issues with challenges locking up and our trackers not updating. The entire app is slow and sometimes unresponsive. I will still keep using it while they work out the bugs or switch to another app simular to this comes available such as Matchup for Android.
inKin Social Fitness Platform April 19, 2016
Hi, Andy!
Thanks for your constructive feedback. Has your experience improved since January? We've worked on many improvements during the past few months. Missing one thing + early bugs Google Fit Integration!!!! Along with some bug fixes, I'm finally able to use the app now, I recommend Facebook Integration for easier invitation of people to the platform/service!
inKin Social Fitness Platform January 13, 2016
Hi, Charles Ian!
Thank you for your feedback on our alpha-version.
We have fixed lots of issues, although it is still going through the testing period. And will be adding Google Fit integration later this month.
Please let us know what you think,
Regards,
The inKin Team The app is great Nicely done. Almost all wearable trackers included. Clean interface. Everything is comfortable and suitable.
Awesome!!! Integrated with Microsoft Band and everything worked in one shot. Impressed.
inKin Social Fitness Platform April 19, 2016
Thank you, Aref :) Love this! Brilliant app! Love the idea and implementation! Absolutely stunning! Great job.
inKin Social Fitness Platform April 19, 2016
Thank you, Stephen! We are working on that "room" :) Almost! Loved being able to compete with friends who use different devices. Unfortunately, every challenge we tried to create disappeared. Also, challenges should be able to start immediately, or at least the next day. A 2 day wait for a challenge to begin is too long. Wish it worked out better for us. Everyone bailed after several failed attempts.
inKin Social Fitness Platform April 19, 2016
Hi, Renee!
1) We're sorry you had this experience:( Please bear with us as our app's still work in progress. We investigated your case and fixed the bug.
2) We have to take time zones into consideration. Thus, a 1-day time lag.
We hope you'll be back as we've introduced our team battle mode (web version, on mobile version soon).
Yours,
Team inKin Before downloading the app I checked to see if it was compatible with my device (polar m400). After installation I attempted to sync my device to the app. My device is no longer listed as an option.
inKin Social Fitness Platform March 8, 2017
Hi, Vii!
We do support Polar via Google Fit at the moment.
However, we will be adding Polar directly shortly.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and confusion and hope to see you again soon <3
Yours,
