Tracking issues solved with a reinstall

Like others recently, I had issues with the app not recording activities as tracking would switch itself off. I got in touch with support and received a prompt reply telling me to remove and reinstall the app. I had to accept/reenable settings and reactivate the software, but this has actually worked for me — tracking now stays enabled within and outside of the app. No points were lost by reinstalling the app. I am, once again, able to enjoy the app and track my activities.

Terrible

Has started to turn the tracking off so nothing gets recorded, really poor inaccurate app, needs sorting out

Doesn’t always keep track

I love the idea of this app, but I never cycle and yet some of my travel is logged as cycling and the app misses some of my walks, or parts of them. Often. I’ve checked my settings & it should work better.Still, great idea & hopefully it will eventually work as it’s meant to.

Walking

Does not pick up the first half of my walk from home. Signal only picks up after 20-30 mins or so of walking. Never going to get many points at this rate.

Leicestershire FTW

I am surprised this app isn’t securing 4 stars and above but it looks like people outside of the areas are downloading it and then complaining because they don’t get the full benefits . I’ve been
Using it within Leicestershire for over 5 years and apart from occasional
Problems where an update turns tracking off , it’s definitely the BEST reward tracking app I’ve come across ( WeWard hang your head ) . It just runs in the background and requires no input , quietly accumulating points . Why score low for something that is all benefit ?
