Jiya turns moving your body into a game you play with your friends. Create a competition in seconds, invite your crew, and let Apple Health do the rest. Steps, running miles, active calories, or workout minutes — pick your metric, set the clock, and chase the lead. No manual logging. Just move. LIVE LEADERBOARDS Your rank updates the moment Apple Health syncs. Watch the board reorder in real time, see exactly how far ahead — or behind — you are, and feel every overtake. COMPETE ON WHAT YOU WANT • Steps — most steps wins • Running — distance covered • Calories — active kcal burned • Active time — total workout minutes Run a quick weekend sprint or a two-week grind. You set the start, the duration, and who's in. TRASH TALK, BUILT IN Drop reactions on your rivals' activity — fire, flex, and a few less polite ones. Get a buzz when someone passes you so you know it's time to lace up. AI VICTORY RECAP Every competition ends with a one-of-a-kind cartoon: the winner triumphant, everyone else comically defeated. Save it, share it, never let them forget it. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Jiya reads your activity on your device and only ever submits your competition total — never your raw health data. We don't sell your data and we never write back to Apple Health. Sign in with Apple or email; you're in control. Stop working out alone. Start winning. Apple Health permission is required to sync activity. Distance shown in miles or kilometers (your choice).
