Little Chance for Reward
Seems that winning bids are increasing faster than a person's ability to earn gems on the app so becoming a waste of time watching the required ads to gain gem points that are becoming less worthwhile every day.
One winning bids hit 80,000I am quitting.....not fun anymore.
Avoid this app which was once a good motivator to walk those extra steps but now a frustrating waste of time !
Response from developer
Hey! Thanks for the feedback. Rewards have been replaced with auctions in order to make this a more fair claiming experience for everyone and sustainable for the app. Previously, users had to rush the app every day at 12pm ET to claim a reward when they were restocked. This caused many app issues and was unfair to members as not everyone could access the app at 12pm ET. That being said, the new auction system provides a fairer opportunity, considering even if you aren't one of the many highest bidders, you can still win a reward through our raffle system, as 85% of rewards are distributed through the auction and 15% are distributed through the raffle. This ensures that you can still win a reward even if you don't have a lot of Gems, and you don’t lose your Gems if you don’t win the auction. Optimity is a free app and our rewards are funded by our advertisements. At the end of the day, our app's mission is to promote healthy behaviours through steps and health education. Please don’t hesitate to contact support@myoptimity.com for additional questions.
