Very fun

Great app with a great team working to constantly improve.

Nice idea but gains are too small

Nice idea and the app runs fairly well and is reasonably intuitive.

Issue is the risk/reward doesn’t really stack up. Last week I had staked $250 on challenges and won $0.21 plus my original stake back.

It’s a pretty good incentive driver to get out and complete your runs/challenges to make sure you don’t lose money. But if on one week I just couldn’t make it out (work, injury, weather) and lost a challenge (let’s say $30), it’d take me over 2yrs to make that back if I’m averaging $0.21/week.

Plus those outside the UK will probably lose a few dollars too, simply through the exchange rate (unless using Starling or Monzo).

In summary - too much pressure to complete your challenges with little reward for doing so.

Great concept

I really like the stakes with this app where you put money In and if you complete the challenge you get your money back plus the money people who didn’t complete the challenge. But unlike what the ads I have seen claim, there isn’t anyway to do biking challenges. I will be a lot more active when that is added

Going under?

Always has issues, unable to view challenges or join them in the past month. Pulled my money out, worried they are going under

There’s a reason it’s called CaDoo

Such an incredible app! Anything to get me off the couch. Great job guys

Doesn’t compare to WayBetter/StepBet

The app has improved tremendously since I last used it, but winnings are really low (which is a good sign that players are sticking to their goals.)

App isn’t intuitive and feels empty. It would also be nice if you could easily see which games you’ve recently won and their stats all in one place instead of having to open each game. It would be nice to be able to have a light feature instead of light words on a dark back ground. It’s a bit hard to see.

This is my second try with this app and I’ve not run into any bugs (last time it had a huge step counting bug.) I’ll try it again but right now I’m just not feeling it.

Thank you so much for your review and your feedback! We're always working to improve Cadoo.

Won’t “force” sync

My Fitbit won’t sync with the app and no matter how many times I hit force sync none of the activities I completed on Fitbit shows up on the app. It’s been two days of forcing syncing, restarting my phone, uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Nothing I do is showing the walks I tracked on my Fitbit to this app.

Great concept

Been enjoying the app and finished about 50 challenges so far. Haven’t found the magic sauce yet but definitely has gotten me out the door when I didn’t want to go.

Been trying to spread the word as I believe it will be better with more users.

Excited to see how 2022 shakes out.

Thank you so much for your review! We're so glad you've found success with Cadoo.

Straight up lies.

This app is no longer usable with your Strava account. It will not pull your runs from Strava. It also doesn’t show runs on zwift even though I have that paired to Cadoo. I requested a refund and asked to be removed from the challenge I’m currently in and customer service’s response was just to use another app like Fitbit or Wahoo which don’t work with my Stryd foot pod. So, not only do I lose the mileage I’ve already achieved this week I have to change to using my phone to record mileage which isn’t as accurate as the Stryd foot pod. I signed up because they state my platforms would work with their system.

Hi! Thank you for your feedback. We accept Zwift for bike rides only at this time, and Zwift is not listed on any running challenges. Just because we accept an integration does not mean it is compatible with each challenge. Every challenge has the accepted integration listed on the challenge page, so make sure to review the list before joining!

Decent

The app is decent after bugs were addressed
