Questions
The awkward ones, answered.
- How many goals can I have?
- As many as you will actually do. Each one carries its own amount and keeps its own record, so you can see which are working.
- Can they be worth different amounts?
- Yes. Put €3.00 on the easy one and €20.00 on the one you keep dodging. Anything from €3.00 to €500.00.
- What if my phone counted nothing?
- A day with no step data is never held against you. It cannot reach the ledger, so it cannot cost you anything.
- Why is €3.00 the floor?
- Below that the card fee eats most of what is on the line, so there is nothing left to be accountable to.
- Does today count yet?
- No. Only finished days are judged, so nothing is decided until midnight has passed.
- Two apps count my steps. Do they add up?
- No. The highest single source wins, never the sum. Two apps mirroring one pedometer should not double your day.
- Which phones?
- Android, using Health Connect for steps. There is no iPhone build yet.
- Am I being charged anything?
- No. Payments are not wired up. Every amount is recorded and nothing is ever charged.
