### 1/5 — No points

*2026-08-03, version 5.3.1*

After I am active I don’t get better points and I uploaded loads of complaints seems like I’m talking to a brick wall

### 5/5 — The best walking app

*2026-07-29, version 5.3.1*

Love using this app. I got my family involved and now we all use it. I had an issue over the last few days but the team have quickly resolved and it’s up and running again. Extra bonus is, you earn points that you can turn in to vouchers.  You can use these to treat yourself for all your efforts. Super easy to download and use.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t really work

*2026-07-10, version 5.2.5*

It’s a nice idea but the truth is it doesn’t actually track anything unless your in a car. Most of the walking time isn’t tracked. So it’s not very good for encouraging people to walk more.  Nice idea, maybe it will improve but for now it’s not really doing what EHDC claim it does.

### 2/5 — Not very good at tracking and recording.

*2026-07-06, version 5.2.5*

Not very good at recording walks in their entirety and then awards spurious qualifying times to walks it’s less than half tracked. Bizzarre

### 2/5 — Pointless

*2026-07-01, version 5.2.5*

Was great when starting out several years ago, unfortunately they’ve stopped doing the activity in my area so it’s virtually impossible to earn points anymore so it’s a bit of a pointless app now tbh. You can earn tickets for a CHANCE to win points in a prize draw but otherwise it’s not worth having the app unfortunately.

### 5/5 — How is that ending 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

*2026-06-03, version 5.2.5*

No!!!!!

### 3/5 — Tracking does not work on Iphone 12 pro

*2026-05-10, version 5.2.3*

For the last few months, despite gps and in app tracking enabled, my walks are either not recorded at all or are recorded in part. I have no idea how to resolve this. 3 stars rating for what used to be a 5 star app.

### 4/5 — Tracking issues solved with a reinstall

*2026-05-05*

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.

### 2/5 — Tracking issues

*2026-05-01, version 5.2.0*

This was a brilliant app until the other week when the Tracking Option now keeps defaulting to “off”. I’m really hoping this is being looked into…

### 1/5 — Tracking

*2026-04-27, version 5.2.0*

Tracking turns off by itself so no activities are recorded. Has only done this since updating to 5.1.5.
