They worked together and played together, turning the Layabots’ activity output into energy source for Wokamons. However the Layabouts got too lazy and eventually stopped moving. Wokamons got super weak and mega sad. In order for Wokamon to thrive again, Wokamon elders decided to send some young and brave Wokamons to plant Earth to harness energy from the human race and to start their adventure. ------------------PLEASE NOTE-------------------- Permissions - Make sure to grant all permissions when asked to authorise with the Health App to make it work. Power consumption (iPhone 4/4S/5/5C) - Wokamon requires background location (GPS) for built-in pedometer.
