My Thoughts

Sweatcoin is another great exercise app to add to your stash. When paired with Achievement, talk about mega passive cash!

I really like this app for the reason that I can just HAVE it on my phone and get payed for every step I take... well, almost every step.

Sweatcoin has one downfall as of now. You can only be payed for the steps that you take outside. This is kind of unfortunate but the reason is because they calculate steps based on a back end GPS system. So, they measure your steps via distance rather than bopping up and down. The last I heard, they were working on getting it active indoors too, so I will keep an eye on that so I can keep you up to date.

This isn't a major set back of the app though. Another great feature of this app is that you can send some of your points to friends. This is effective because you could save up together much faster and split the reward!

Another interesting side of the app is that you can change the category you are in for "activeness." Sweatcoin has a cap based on these different levels of activeness, which can be kind of lame but to be honest, I never even notice the cap. If you want to move higher up to make more coins, the app does charge you monthly directly out of your coin balance. But the lowest level is free. Don't worry about that too much though, you can choose to move back down if you aren't making enough coins. If you are a very outdoors-y person you may choose to move to a higher level to earn more points.

Right now the app has 3.7 out of 5 stars on Google Play, and a 4.4 out of 5 stars on Apple App Store. If I were to rate this app it would be probably a 4.1 because I don't like that you can't make points for walking indoors and I think the payout system needs improvement; however, I think the app has an innovative idea and design and can be completely passive.
