Sweatcoin Step Counter to Walk 12+

This is the most awesome app idea I’ve ever seen!

I am so hooked and motivated to exercise!

Developer Response ,

Thank you very much for such a thoughtful and motivating review! Glad to know you like it! :)

Why all the hype?

I tried this app and honestly didn't see any value. You give full access to your location. You end up harassing all your friends to join so you get more "points" and all you get at the end of the day is barely a few pennies towards unachievable rewards. If you weigh in the positives and negatives, you'll notice you're selling ALL your personal info, including apple health data, your contacts and places you visit in return for a $1 at Amazon... Delete and forget.

Don’t bother

Let’s say you got tempted by that check for $1000 or iPhone or tV, but it physically impossible!!!!! Let’s do the math, shall we?!
And here is a break down for you...
• to get those prizes you would have to collect 20,000 sweat coins! (FYI:1 coin is 1000 steps)
You are given 2 years to complete that!!!! Which is 24 month or 730 days.
• now.... you also get daily bonuses! In 730 days you would get 1701 bonus sweat coin! Nice! But... you would also have to pay monthly subscription! Which would come to 720 coins.
So in total you would have to make 19,000 sweat coins in 2 years! Or...26 coins a day!
First of all the maximum amount of coins based on this app you can make is 20!
So they are misleading but advertising false info,
But....I said “based on”....
It real life of this app it would precisely count third of your outdoor steps! It’s poorly designed, it got glitches, it doesn’t work unless you’ll swing your hand!
Don’t waste your time! I was testing it for a 5 month and it’s horrible! You get addicted to it, but frustrated as you see that it’s not counting your steps.
Yeasterday they did some update and it’s a complete disaster! I walked close to 7000 steps and got 1$.
Oh, it also kills your battery!
Unsubscribing!

Hey -- thanks for your review!
Please know that, above all, getting people more active and healthy is our goal here at Sweatcoin, so we won't be reducing the big marathon offers anytime soon... However, if you feel they're too difficult to attain, that's fine! We have loads of other offers that aren't as pricey, and you also have the option to donate to charities with your steps! :)

Also, please note that the 24 months isn't a limit - you can take as long as you need to save up coins for the marathon offers :)
