Excellent application motivante

L’application fonctionne très bien

Daten

Die App verkauft die Daten erfolgreich an die Israelische und US-Amerikanische Regierung, sowohl als auch an jeden Großkonzern. Allerdings gut sonst

Real numbers.

I’ve had this app for 25 days now, I’ve logged my steps everyday for those 25 days. I average 5.1 miles walking, per day, over these last 25 days. I am 13% of the way to a 10$ dominos gift card. 127 miles of walking = 1.30$.
Absolutely skip this app. Just look down when you walk, you’ll find more in pocket change.

Ok

I am new to winwalk but so far the app does seem legit but it takes so long but I love the app

I want to count steps, not play games

This app really wants you to play games as you can not get out of them, unless you shut your phone down and start… Ugg

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback. On iPhone, Winwalk gets your steps directly from Apple Health, so your pedometer should show the same step count once permission is enabled. If you're referring to the optional rewarded video ads, they are never required and can always be closed, although some ads may not make the close button immediately obvious. Please contact us via the FAQ & Contact menu and describe the issue—we're sure we can help!

Man läuft mehr

Winwalk

It made me sign into an apple account

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. On iPhone, Sign in with Apple is used to help ensure each Winwalk account is unique and to prevent Apple Health data from being duplicated across multiple iOS devices. We don't have access to or store your Apple email address or other Apple account information—only an anonymous identifier provided by Apple. We hope this helps clarify things!

Can’t get my steps

It was all good until Monday 15th last wk I couldn’t get my steps to clear? I may or may not get an add to collect & if I do it does the motion of them all going in the pot but the pot doesn’t go up & they’re still in the circle. I have mailed winwalk on Tuesday 16th June but no reply hence trying this way. I have done 6000 -10000 from 15th - 18th, Friday more, nothing 20th, 21st about 3000. Today again lost them. So all in all lost the lot a lot this wk hence the rating only 1 but when it works it’s 5 star!

Disappointed

I noticed that it is not calculating all your step.

Cheating App

Always, always, not only once, refuse to give rewards or points especially when the it worth over 5,000 thousand points! Block all communication to talk to management of the app, only those auto reply machine said “unfortunately we can’t give you points this time!” No follow up! 😡😡😡

Response from developer

We are sorry to hear that you experienced a problem with an offer. However, from your review, it sounds like the response came from one of our offer partners rather than from the Winwalk team. We do not use automated replies, nor do we refer to rewards as "points." If you contact us through the FAQ & Contact menu in Winwalk with more details (and ideally, screenshots), we will be happy to review the situation.

Scammy

Averaged almost 10k steps a day all week according to this app. 10 coins total. Uh huh.

Syncing

It won’t sync with my Fitbit watch. I don’t carry my phone everywhere so I miss out on a lot of steps

Response from developer

Thank you for sharing your experience. On iOS, Winwalk receives step data exclusively from Apple Health. Apple Watch data is integrated automatically, but Fitbit does not directly sync its step count with Apple Health. If you use a third-party solution to transfer your Fitbit steps into Apple Health, those same steps will be reflected in Winwalk. Unfortunately, this is a limitation of the Apple Health/Fitbit ecosystem and not something Winwalk can control. We appreciate your understanding and hope you will reconsider your rating.

Great app

Did the walks, got my voucher. Highly recommend!!!!

Waste of time

It would be a great app if you could use it with various watch’s. I have a Fitbit but can’t link the steps. I’ve done 15,000 steps and it only said I done 2,300 due to only being linked to Apple Heath App. Which I never have my phone on me in the gym so waste of time

The BEST

I’m a postie. I walk a lot everyday. I have tried many walk-for-reward apps. Some of them I deleted straight away. I currently have 6 of them on my phone and this app is the best of them. Best as it doesn’t require you to do absolutely nothing to claim your steps everyday. But the best of best is that it doesn’t ask you to provide ANY information to redeem your gift card. Just click and view the card. No bullsh1t at all.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your amazing review! We're delighted that Winwalk stands out among the walking rewards apps you've tried. We designed Winwalk to be as simple and anonymous as possible, which is why we don't collect personal information such as your name, email address, or phone number to redeem rewards. As a postie, you're definitely putting our step tracker to good use—happy walking and enjoy your rewards!

Unfair

Bei der Umfragen werden viel zu persönliche Fragen gestellt, und auch wenn man ganz ernst antwortet - erhält man nur ein kleines Stück mögliche Belohnung. Und so ist es bei jeder Umfrage. Zum Beispiel steht da, dass man 350 Münzen für die Umfrage bekommt, am Ende bekommt man 30 davon , weil es angeblich dem Partner nicht gepasst hat, aber für Ihre irre Bemühungen erhalten Sie diese 30 Münzen. Lächerlich und nicht zu empfehlen!

Für diese Erfahrung möchten wir uns entschuldigen. Die Umfragen werden vollständig von unseren Partnern verwaltet, und wir haben leider keinen Einfluss darauf, wann Nutzer ausgeschlossen werden oder wie viele Münzen vergeben werden. Alle Antworten werden anonymisiert verarbeitet und weitere Informationen finden Sie in den Datenschutzrichtlinien der jeweiligen Anbieter. Umfragen sind zudem nur eine optionale Funktion – viele Nutzer sammeln ihre Münzen einfach durch Schritte mit dem Schrittzähler oder über Spieleangebote. Wir verstehen Ihren Frust und nehmen Ihr Feedback ernst.

There’s no way else to get ahold of you

I am not getting credited for the videos and the log of videos you watched won’t load- Plz fix!

Verbesserungswürdig

Hab es gerade entdeckt. Schön das man mit gehen Geld verdienen kann, aber die Schritte werden nur über das Handy gezählt. Da ich mein Handy nicht rund um die Uhr bei mir trage, wäre die Schrittaufzeichnung per Uhr besser. Oder zumindest die Wahl ob über Uhr oder Handy.

Response from developer

Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback! Auf dem iPhone bezieht Winwalk die Schrittdaten ausschließlich aus Apple Health. Dies ist von Apple so vorgesehen – iOS-Apps können nicht frei auf die Daten beliebiger Smartwatches zugreifen. Wenn Ihre Uhr ihre Schritte mit Apple Health synchronisiert, werden diese automatisch auch in Winwalk übernommen. Falls nicht, können wir diese Daten leider weder auslesen noch eine direkte Verbindung herstellen. Diese Einschränkung wird durch das Apple-System vorgegeben und kann von uns leider nicht umgangen werden. Wir hoffen, diese Erklärung hilft weiter. Trotzdem vielen Dank für Ihren Vorschlag und viel Freude beim Schritte sammeln!
