Great app!
I’ve really enjoyed using Govida. I’m not usually competitive but the app certainly made me do more steps if it meant more points and being top of the work points table! Even my husband was amazed to see a competitive side! It has become a great routine and has lead to walking routines also, which are now part of my normal day. The surprising benefit is the conversations that have happened with work colleagues who I would normally struggle to share any common ground with. We have swapped tips for challenges/points and I can honestly say it has really improved the team’s interaction. The support from Chris at Govida was spot on: I had two techy glitches and the support was immediate (iPhone name had a symbol in it). Thank you team Govida!

A bit naff
Doing this for our work “summer games” and it’s a bit rubbish. 10 points for doing a jigsaw, 10 points for a bike ride. Points for listening to a podcast, points for “breath work” I breath all day at work so I might log it
Worst "fitness" app I ever seen
This app should, by idea, allow employers to push employees to healthy style or life by introducing team challenges and competitions. Indeed, it offers so many ways to cheat that ruin the idea completely.
GARBAGE, WASTE OF SPACE
The app is completely DEFUNCT!!
Specifically, IT REQUIRES YOU SIGN UP WITH AN "EMPLOYER" JUST TO EVEN CREATE YOUR ACCOUNT!!, AND IT DOESN’T REWARD YOU WITHOUT YOUR EMPLOYER ALSO BEING CONNECTED!!!
Thus, the app is nothing but a piece of junk waste of memory space, unless you want to nag and aggravate your employer to make them pay you more than you actually earn from them. You'd be asking them to pay just for your steps, and not for any service you provide them, thus drastically increasing the chance that they'll fire you.
Pity, because I was optimistic the app would be like Evidation, Carrot, FitForBucks, SweatCoin, or Upper Edge, rewarding you to become healthy. But nope, it seems more like they're intentionally trying to get you fired.

Joined the GoVida app yesterday and signed up for one team and two individual challenges! So easy to use and links to my Fitbit. Looking forward to the team challenge hike from Land’s End to John O'Groats. This app is definitely a great motivator during lockdown and winter. Looking forward to more challenges.
