### 5/5 — Walking

*2026-08-21, version 254.0.0*

Honestly, I kind of love this app because it helps me get up active and walk around especially if you really love money like I do you kind of motivates me to walk around to get money so I can get the things I need because I am a student at a university so this is a five star rate for me and I got my money. I just don’t know how to withdraw it

### 1/5 — BS

*2026-08-25, version 254.0.0*

This app is total BS. I have been using this app for over a year and have absolutely have nothing to show for it. I watch the app to get a 3x boost and it never gives me credit for it. Then it doesn’t add my steps from my boosts to my over in total. The drawings are a joke because I had over 30,000 entries and didn’t get a thing!!!  And customer support is more of a joke than the app. They blame it on my phone and refuse to compensate me for coins that I have truly earned. Just today I took screen shots of how I did a 3x boost and got over 9,000 steps in on one screen shots, then the second screen shot showed all zero for my boost and my third screen shoot showed my over all total of being 1900. It cheated me over 7000 steps. I definitely WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS BS APP!!!

### 1/5 — Changed for the worst

*2026-08-25, version 254.0.0*

Used to be a pretty nice, straightforward system. Walking earned coins, you spent coins on gift cards or rewards when you earned enough. It took FOREVER to earn enough but it was still a pretty nice thing to have passively in the background. Now it’s 100% ads and the rewards are setup like a gambling system (scratchers and spinning wheels). You have to watch an obscene amount of ads just to use the basic functions of the app.

### 1/5 — First time I’ve ever written a review

*2026-08-24, version 254.0.0*

I’ve used Sweatcoin for around 8 years and have over 4,500 Sweatcoins, yet I can’t even redeem a £5 reward. I could work for less than 30 minutes and earn more than I’ve gained from 8 years of using this app. The concept is great, but the rewards have become so poor that it honestly feels pointless.

### 1/5 — Became Awful In Recent Years

*2026-08-23, version 254.0.0*

I've had this app for at least the past five years. And what happened to the sweatcoins app???? There used to be offers to spend sweatcoins on but now everything is a "free offer" with partnership companies. The only way to spend the sweatcoins you earn is by paying for the premium version of the app to enter raffles. So you might not even get anything for what you spend. This app was so much better five years ago but now it just feels like a scam.

### 1/5 — S

*2026-08-23, version 254.0.0*

Using sweatcoin since 1 year. I had almost 5000 sweatcoins but I was not a premium member. And now I can’t get a reward coupon.

### 1/5 — False advertising!

*2026-08-21, version 254.0.0*

This app will Not actually let you cash out when you attempt to use you 10,000 coins!

### 1/5 — It’s a scam!! This app should be banned from App store

*2026-08-21, version 253.1.0*

You will never receive the code for the reward. Wasted 5 months to get NOTHING!

### 1/5 — Now worthless

*2026-08-20, version 253.1.0*

I used to love this app and its concept. BUT I’ve been logged out of it for a very long time (because the app doesn’t appear in the ‘Motion Fitness’ settings) and the issue isn’t being solved. Very disappointed

### 1/5 — How to donate

*2026-08-20, version 253.1.0*

I don’t see how to donate

### 1/5 — Don't get this app

*2026-08-20, version 253.1.0*

It's terrible, it has to many adds, they make you go through this whole process just to not even pay you. So if you think their gonna pay you their not. But, if you don't care about the money and you want to get it to stay active then you should get it.
