I think this is great. Unfortunately I've been knocked out of the app because of the update and it's asking me for new details and my email, but no option to sign back into my account...can you help?

From hearing all the great reviews from friends, I downloaded the app. The problem is I can't even get past the first part. When I enter my phone number in it always comes up with, 'SSL handshake another's with some code after it. I understand its fairly new to android but reading the reviews from below it seems like I'm the only one experiencing the problem. Hopefully the problem will get solved soon as I am very keen to try this app out.

Great app, but gets shafted in favor of iOS. The app works pretty well, tracking my steps and motivating me to move and do more, but when I compared it to my friend's iOS version, I was blown away by several things: 1. iOS has 2-3x more offers and options for spending coins. 2. iOS has more app features, such as the ability to view your own progress over the month/year/etc, as well as that of your friends 3. iOS tracks steps better, and has fewer instances of miscounting and missing steps. I'd like to rate it higher if there was some equality.

The App keeps crashing, loses 1000s of step daily, disconnects my 2,3 & 4G signal and can drain my full battery in just over an hours. I'd happily pay for the App to ensure it did what it was supposed to do.

Okay, so every time I open the app, it says "Unfortunately I sense that I am unsupported on your device, click below to see why." This is frustrating because on the website it says it's only available for Apple products from 5s or newer but it doesn't have any specific requirements for Android. So when I downloaded it, it says it's not supported on my phone. When I clicked the support button, it told me that it's because my phone doesn't have a pedometer chip. Well, I personally believe that your phone shouldn't have to have a pedometer chip if you have a Fitbit and have downloaded the Fitbit app. You should think about connecting with fitness watches or devices in order to gain more downloads and customers. I have a friend who uses this for her iPhone 6 and it seems very cool; but if you're limiting your available phones to newer Apple products and specific Android products, you might want to consider expanding your horizons.

Downloaded today and boy, other users weren't kidding!...you drained more than 20% of my battery in 50 minutes! I would've given 5 stars if it weren't for the battery drain!

cool app. shame battery drain is too much for my phone. I'll download in few months when it is more battery efficient
The Android version of this app is not properly verifying the out door steps, The total no of outdoor steps is around 8000, but the app verifies not even thousand. But the Apple version of this app works well.
Another welcomed set of improvements moving ever closer to a well rounded and feature full application. New feature suggestions: - Perk Systems (goals) - UI customisation - Google Fit integration - Personal target setting

Thank you - working full steam towards that great vision of yours! Whatever "verification" process it uses is bogus. Walked over 4k steps today on an outdoor track, after all my steps were "verified" I only received credit for 550.
App is ok to use but alot of work needed. Referrals are very hit and miss. Several friends have joined via link and I have not received my coins
This something new I've recently heard of and is exceptional and very intuative. I think this will be the next big app reverloution. love it...
Good app, but maybe you could include indoor steps as well. And have integration with Samsung health.
I really wish this worked properly on Androids because I love the concept and the design and ethos so its a big shame that it doesn't count steps properly or verify them, I went for a huge walk and apparently I've only done 3000 something steps but and it hasn't even registered those 3000ish steps, such a shame but I hope they fix it :)
Not accurate + battery drainer always think i do 59 steps when at the bottom it says 9,000 steps this app is messed
Android here. Its not recording my outdoor steps correctly. I walked 3000 and it only took outdoor steps as 78
Won't let me log in, This app needs a big warning about no working on android phones
It's a good app however I did 16000 steps in one day all of them outside and it only said that 1500 of them were outside so if it new what was inside and what was outside this would definitely be 5 stars
Well it seems the calculation of outside steps is faulty, my Google fit and Fitbit provide a matching g number while sweat coin always have a car lesser number.. also when you move from.one level to another , it didn't release the membership coin for earlier level or deducted t that in current membership
The app is amazing, but it doesn't seem to verify all my steps. I did 20,000 but it only gave me 0.85 SweatCoins! But apart from that, the app is very good.
How much data uses by the app??? How much impact will be on battery if used for 10 hours outside??? Details not mentioned fully. What about the location data you collecting??? What you will do to that data???
Good idea but needs to be improved for Android...hasn't given me a single outdoor step or coin for 8000 steps, mostly outside
Great app... got 20 coins in 3 days and upgrades my walking allowance to Quaker... only downside is the amount of battery it drains in a day
This is a great app. It pays to stay fit but have to leave your location on to count steps and earn coins.
Havent tried it yet because it dosent work on Samsung s4 but it seems to be an amazing concept.
Did a lot of walking and referring and got myself 80 coins for a free power bank but the code didn't copy and paste and now my balance is 0 again! I've emailed for support and waiting reply. 1 star until then. Providing they resolve it, it'll be back up to 5 stars. Great app but feel like it's a bit of a scam for now... EDIT: See. Developer comment. Thanks guys. Checked my emails and nothing had come through so when it does I'll change to 5 star :) EDIT 2: ALL SORTED! Great customer service and very helpful. The app does drain battery a little but it's a small price to pay. Especially when you can get a free charger in 5 days like me! Thanks guys.

Hi James, apologies for it not copying, it's a little bug on the Android app we've found and are already releasing a fix for! I have however seen your purchase come through, and will be emailing your code to your supplied email address. Enjoy your new power bank! Great concept overall, love the in app currency that you an exchange for goodies such as shoes, power banks, Amazon gifts cards, etc. One thing that ruins it though is how the outdoor steps are verified. I walk a lot outside and for some reason it only verifies a quarter of those steps being outdoor steps. For example I may have walked 10,000 steps outside but only 2,500 are registered as outdoor steps. This really makes me angry. Try and sort this out please and I'd give 5 stars.
Love the idea!! Love love love it! What I don't love though is that my location has to be on in order for it to work :( I don't have my location on unless I need to order an uber or I need Google maps as it runs my battery. Please let me know if there is another option. Many thanks
I see people whining about this app even literally they are getting something for "free". Battery issue might be a problem but every gps based app does the same. Kudos! gr8 app though
Great concept and very helpful dev. Had a few issues on install but everything's working fine after reinstalling. Not yet perfect - could do with more choice on how to spend the coins - but I'm looking forward to seeing it grow.
After updating to latest version it is to buggie. It always calculate earn steps wrongly ie., it is always 50% lesser than total steps. Also it always shows 'verifying x no of steps' but it never sums up.
App looks nice. Logged my first couple hundred steps. Has not verified a single step since day 1. Emailed the dev through play store, no response. Love the idea. Wish it worked.
I think the app would be more effective if I can sync it to Google Fit app or Samsung Health App, as well let it be able to connect to android wear device's as well. There is so much potential for this app to make big.

Hi, Sweatcoin here!
It's good to have a reader!
Install me and I will (most probably) work!
But if I don’t support your device, please don’t be harsh on me.
I need to see your device from inside to know for sure if I work on it.
Since launch it has been a mad rush to address your requests:
1. Battery will last longer, but more work is needed
2. Tracker will count better and will keep you informed what to do if any issues
3. Gazillion of bugs ruthlessly squashed!
Happy Sweatcoining!
