Many lost points

Most ads now freeze at the end without you able to add points (jewels). The only way is to close the app and reopen, and you lost the points. This happens after the daily activities, any additional surveys and about 90% of the ads for bonus points. This app is becoming useless and too expensive for rewards.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. Our team is actively addressing the issue with our ad provider to resolve the problem with ads. If you encounter any issues with receiving Gems for watching ads, please reach out to us at support@myoptimity.com so that we can assist you in manually sending the missing Gems.

Worthless points

The amount of spammy ads you need to get the 40k+ and counting points to get a measly $5 gift card is too damn high.

Response from developer

Hey! Thanks for your feedback. If you aren't one of the many highest bidders in the auction, 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. You can win with any amount that you set, including an amount lower than the lowest winning bid. Stay safe and be well! Optimity

Very laggy and slow and increasingly incentives being taking away

Very laggy on app launch plus slow to respond between page refreshes that makes this app feel like it’s going through molasses and makes minutes of activity feel like hours spent.

The continual gradual incentives being taking from being rewarded in participating in this app; whether it’s the direct gems for points Exchange being swapped out for a lottery draft which essentially gives zero guarantee and little value.
To the increase of the max daily step count from 6000 to 7000 steps insinuating that we all must be active step junkies in order to rewarded, have slowly turned this app from a fun and healthy activity to be rewarded in participating to an agonizing burden that pays back it users so few fashion that will slowly push away users and this whole app out of existence

Hey! Thanks for the feedback. The 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. The dynamic step goal has always been enabled, meaning if you are not able to achieve your goal, it will lower to a goal that's more attainable based on your step activity. This feature is meant to continue to motivate you to meet your step goal and exceed it, however, it will never surpass 7,000 steps. The decision to increase the maximum goal to 7,000 steps was a decision that was made to be more health oriented, as multiple studies indicate that 7,000 steps or more is the most optimal for reducing the risk of chronic diseases. If you'd like to learn more about the dynamic step goal, you can see our FAQ for a more detailed breakdown of this feature that has always been enabled: https://optimity.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4414791324813-Dynamic-Step-Goal . At the end of the day, our app's mission is to promote healthy behaviors through steps and health education. Please don’t hesitate to contact support@myoptimity.com for additional questions.

Freeze after adv

This App is really going down hill and I am really lost interested with this app. Beside the gift card is changed to auction and make no sense, but I understand. For almost a month, after watching those adv, the app is frozen, not able to exit. Need to turn off and turn on my phone to release it. So I stop watching the adv and using this app.

Completely wrong respond from my commend

I am talking about the adv is freezes the app and they are responding on the challenging weekly cap.

Response from developer

Hey! Thanks for the feedback. There is no limit on how many friends you run step together challenges with so you can still have fun with all of your friends! The cap means that you will receive gems for up to 10 completed challenges per week (2000 gems). Note that even if you are over the cap, your friends will still receive their gems for a completed challenge if they are under the cap. If you have any other feedback, do not hesitate to share it with us at support@myoptimity.com. Be well!

Great Way to Earn

This is a great App to keep you in check. I record my water intake and it tracks my activities. There are daily activities and very interesting articles to read and learn about various topics. You receive points and redeem them for gift cards. ❤️❤️ this app.

Great physical activity motivation

This app offers fun quizzes and tips to stay healthy. They also offer physical activity challenges that then reward you with points that you can redeem for gift cards. It has been a great reminder to stay active.

Wonderful App

Love this app! Helpful lifestyle and health information with sound investment opportunities available if so interested. I love the daily accountability. I am much more aware of my water intake and step goals than every before. Highly recommend!

Waste of time, liars, and thieves.

Went from being able to redeem for gift cards at noon daily, to no gift cards, and now it costs as much to MAYBE will a $1 gift card as it used to cost to get a $5 card.
They didn’t notify us of these changes for MONTHS. It took people bombarding them with questions to actually launch the updates. So for months they were collecting our data, and we were getting nothing in return.
Dumb. Don’t waste your time setting up this app.

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.
