### 2/5 — $ 2 Walk Not really

*2026-08-28, version 2.6.15*

You get credits to spend on challenges you can’t win cuz the people competing are runners averaging 10-20 steps daily.  Plus they want you to pay real money for a subscription. Deceptive. Gave an extra star cuz app is easy to navigate though rules aren’t very clear (bcuz of marketing)

### 4/5 — Easy peasy

*2026-08-26, version 2.6.13*

Love this easy way to keep track of steps and earn money ☺️

### 2/5 — Sneaky

*2026-08-23, version 2.6.13*

Not worth it. The  “money” you earn is a credit that you use to pay for challenges and if you then will the challenge you get cash

### 2/5 — Continue false cheating accusations

*2026-08-23, version 2.6.13*

Thing is that I do love using the app but unfortunately they have deleted multiple accounts of mine for “cheating” despite me providing proof I’m not and after I send them the proof their customer support stops chatting with me and I don’t get my accounts back.

### 5/5 — Money for Walking

*2026-08-18, version 2.6.9*

I get paid to walk & get healthy?? That’s a no brainer.

### 5/5 — Motiv

*2026-08-18, version 2.6.9*

Best app

### 2/5 — Review

*2026-08-18, version 2.6.9*

I liked the tracking your walking when I got to ten dollars and went to cash out it refused. I wasn’t to impressed with that part,

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-08-17, version 2.6.9*

Keeps me motivated for doing my steps and challenging myself

### 5/5 — Goal oriented

*2026-08-16, version 2.6.9*

If you are a goal oriented person, this app will work well for you. It eases you into progressively harder goals, but definitely achievable if you keep at it.

### 5/5 — Me gusta

*2026-08-14, version 2.6.9*

Perfecta

### 5/5 — Kind of Cool getting paid to talk

*2026-08-12, version 2.6.9*

I really enjoy the app cause I like to walk and now I get paid for it? What a deal’ 😂😂😂

### 5/5 — Download Now

*2026-08-12, version 2.6.9*

Very nice !!

### 5/5 — tougher than you'd think to win but good motivational app for moving more

*2026-08-09*

It's a good motivational app, i've walked about 10,000 more steps daily since using and i've only used it 4 days so far. they do give you a lot of credits to get started initially to basically join challenges for free and even more credits if you pay for the premium version (im using the free one as of now). I thought i walk a lot so it would be easy to win but unless you walk like 60,000 steps a day it's pretty easy to lose so keep that in mind. That's the only womp aspect so far that i see. But overall having money on the line definitely has gotten me walking more and i've made about $7 from 6 challenges after subtracting what i bet on the challenges (won 4 lost 2). They offer a free 3 day trial of premium which i will probably check out soon but can't vouch for if it's worth the $5 a month yet. overall I've enjoyed the app so far even though when i think i've won going to sleep and find out in the morning i lose it's a bummer haha. Full disclosure they offer $1 credit for a 5 star review and that's part of why i rated the app 5 stars but decided to write a honest review to go along with it. I would not have rated it 5 stars or written a review with it if the app was awful. I'm sure a bunch of ppl gave 5 stars just for the credit. BUT rest assured the app is legit as far as i can see and can be beneficial even if you lose your bet.

### 2/5 — Fun and motivated

*2026-08-09*

Love it keeps u motivated free free no sucription ! U get motivation and walking running great wellness app and fun with friends! Also be careful with your gambling after you use your own money and you don’t know what you get yourself into so be careful with this app. You can use the app but be careful cause this is a gambler you have to work out to walk to let your money so be careful when you pick this up and learn the hard way you can lose your money if you don’t do what you can

### 5/5 — Motiv

*2026-08-07, version 2.6.5*

This app motivates

### 5/5 — Finally

*2026-08-06, version 2.6.5*

Finally found an actual rewarding walking app definitely recommend

### 3/5 — Good UI, slightly misleading

*2026-08-05, version 2.6.2*

I would highly recommend losing the $ sign from the credits. Use another indicator, as a $ sign signifies money not credits. 

Bug: app tells me to enable push notifications but my iOS app settings show no such option.

Have a “how it works” section to make clear the flow of Earn credits -> join challenges -> earn money based on the challenge pot.

Bug: some large feeds just don’t load. They show for a second then go back to loading spinner - never to resolve.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-08-01, version 2.6.2*

Best walking app I have downloaded it’s fun and keeps you going

### 1/5 — Not transparent

*2026-09-02, version 2.6.15*

Had to make an account and even put my phone number only for it to prompt that I have to pay to use the app

### 1/5 — Not what I expected

*2026-08-07*

I was excited to use this app because reviews said how great it was. I was frustrated to learn you have to pay for a monthly subscription to earn more money, even after walking and hitting the goal. I supposedly earned $16 and I can’t even cash it out. This app is misleading and very disappointing. The only good thing is I do feel more motivated to walk seeing the widget on my screen daily, but the money earning is very misleading.

**Developer response:** Hi Maria,

Thanks for your taking the time to share this feedback but we’d like to clarify something: You do not NEED to subscribe to earn money.

Missions earn you credits.  Credits can be used for step challenges where you win REAL cash.  We’re sorry if that distinction wasn’t clear, and we’ll work to make it more obvious.

We also hope you recognize the value in your last statement: This app MOTIVATED you to walk!  Of course it’s highly unlikely you’ll get rich from this app - but it will certainly make you more active, and we hope that’s worth at least more than 1 star to you.

Thanks again!

### 1/5 — FALSE ADVERTISING!

*2026-07-31, version 2.6.2*

I made $11 in two days of working out with this app and it would not let me cash it out and I googled it and you cannot cash out the money you earn you only can use it for competitions and this app is advertised we can get paid to walk, but I can’t even cash out the $11. I made this is a SCAM! app. Don’t use it.

### 1/5 — Completely defeated the purpose of the app

*2026-07-09, version 2.4.4*

I had a competition with my friends and I won and never got my winnings to cash out and when I tried to contact support they responded once and then just dropped me.

### 1/5 — Can’t withdraw credits

*2026-07-06, version 2.4.4*

It didn’t say anything about converting all your steps into credits, not cash and the only way to redeem it is by doing challenges. I would say this is a stupid app to get and it’s not worth it.

### 1/5 — Ugh

*2026-07-02, version 2.4.4*

They be cheating and if you beat the bot fake account they will deleted your account which I think it’s is not fair at all.

### 1/5 — Eh

*2026-06-27*

The app is overall okay, the first couple days you make a few dollars here and there at a fast pace. But as the days go on you stop earning, it doesn’t give everyday like other apps, you have to complete goals and enter challenges to get more money. I haven’t tried to cash out so I’ll come back and review.
Update coming back to add to my review because not long after writing my first review the app deleted my account leaving me to start completely over. So far not a fan of the app.
Update this app is trash and I will be deleting it. I’ve been kicked out of my account again and it stole money I had and left me with $3.

**Developer response:** Hey Delia,

***update:  Still waiting on your support email.  We can’t help you if we don’t know who you are***

Thanks so much for the feedback.  We will work on incorporate more daily and recurring missions into the app - but encourage you to create and join challenges against your friends.  Please don’t hesitate to contact support@yourmotiv.com if you’d like to discuss specific feature requests.

Thanks again!  These reviews, ratings, and feedback mean a lot to us, so we hope you’ll reach out and reconsider a higher rating!

### 1/5 — error
