Sweatcoin Walking Step Counter Positive Reviews
Not the bestThis app is great and all , but it cheats you . Like everyday I walk at least 3,000 steps and it gives me like 21 cents when I should be getting 3 dollars/sweatcoins. Also the prizes may be cheap but some items have shipping and that shipping is like 6-20 dollars which is not reasonable , in amazing I pay like 3.00 dollars shipping. I shouldn’t be paying over 4.00 dollars for shipping for something that cost 1 dollar/sweatcoin . If this app does it fix its issues I will delete the app . Also sometimes for the daily reward videos , the videos won’t always come , it will say “there are no more daily reward please come back later and try again” and I will go in the app 5-15 times a day and it’s will still stay the same exact things . So I will have to wait for the next day . 2 more things you have to make your prices for prizes cheaper , I really wanted a iPhone XR and I was walking for 6 months and only make 500 dollars and then the offer goes away , this is honestly a waste of time and storage. Last thing if anyone is cheating on the app it’s you , you guys own me over 50 dollars due to your dumb algorithm and setup to see that all of the steps were made in a fair way. Please fix these issues and I will gladly keep the app and use it and recommend to people , I am currently telling people to get it because of these reasons , if you don’t want to fix these issues , I will also gladly delete the entire app and never get it again😊..Eye of Tiger.Version: 32.0
Really cool app. You should get this!Basically for a quick overview, this app counts your steps, and for every 1,000 approved steps, the app gives you $1 in a currency called “sweatcoins” or SWC. Then, you can redeem your sweatcoins with a built-in sweatcoin store. Right now, the common offers have an average of around $2.7 sweatcoins (some of them don’t cost any sweatcoins). Then there are “marathon offers,” which are things like earn a flight to Paris or an action camera or $1,000 USD. Those have an average cost of around 14,000 sweatcoins. You can also donate sweatcoins to different charities. That’s my favorite part of the app. There are daily bonuses, too, where if you walk enough steps, you can watch an ad an earn a random number of sweatcoins between 0.5 and 25 sweatcoins. You can do this daily bonus at a maximum of 3 times a day, but again, only if you walk enough steps.
I’ve been using this app for almost a year now, and I’ve earned around 1,700 sweatcoins. I really like sweatcoin more than Whealthy. In Whealthy, there are WAY TOO MANY ADDS, and it takes a really long time to turn your steps into coins. But in Sweatcoin, the only adds you see are very short ones, and only during daily bonuses. Also, unlike Whealthy, your steps AUTOMATICALLY turn to sweatcoins whenever you have connection to WiFi service. You can also save your steps to get converted for another day. They DON’T get completely forgotten about overnight like what happens in Whealthy. This is a very cool app. You should really get this..EvanJh 23Version: 46.0
Walking sweats = money... WORTH IT!!!!I read reviews of others and to be honest I kinda find some of their negative review very hard to believe. I find this app worth it! I am lazy person. I’m gonna be honest with that. And I’m not a big fan of exercise and always find a excuse to not exercise. Because I have no motivation at all. Until this app. When I see that It “just earning money by making sweat and walk outdoor.” All I see is Motivation so I tried it at 2019 August. I could clearly tell I’m seriously out of shape after first couple days with it. So I stick with it and sure enough I earn more that 100$ in less than 2 months. And not just I have good money. It also keep me in shape! I like to exercise and it been helping me to lose weight! And getting my body healthier! now thanks to this app. I haven’t make any purchases yet but I’ll purchase the gift cards or some product when I’m ready. but Where is the negativity of this app? Because I don’t see it! This app is worth it for lazy people like me who have no motivation and interest in exercise. This is big boast for us to get back on feet and being active again. I believe that this Sweetcoin will be huge business in future! And yes more bonus and more products in future. My Advice is just try this app! It worth it! It might not be perfect in your opinion but it is constantly upgrading so it might meet up your expectations one day! Just Try it! You’ll love it!.PrimialMeatEmpress1Version: 38.1
Great Motivator To Get You Out & Moving Your Feet!App Developers behind this wonder of creation are genius! This has all alone given our 14 year old up and outside walking the dog around the block 3 to 4 times per day. All at a time when our family physician has encouraged us to find creative ways to make her more active! She is always excited to see if she can earn the $10 maximum pet day we've raised her account to be capable of reaching. She's already WELL over $100 and says she wants to save up until something really fantastic is offered in the store that she'll have enough saved to get whatever she wants. I'm excited about this and she's always excited to share with her stepmom and i everyday how much she earned. The steps are accurately configured. I say this contrary to multiple reviews saying that it's not correct. Ott counts ONLY for steps walked outdoors. It does not count towards steps taken while you're inside of a building. Although I have to question if the developers would be willing to give our nurses, doctors and hospital staff whom serve us everyday on their feet walking and legitimately getting exercise the ability to find a way to distinguish a hospital care facility as an overlooked dwelling? I just feel these are public servants all over the world whom should benefit while they're at their place of employment walking like crazy taking care of us and our loved ones every day. Otherwise, 5 stars people!!! All the way!! This app is the greatest idea and anyone NOT UTILIZING THIS APP YET, I SHAKE MY HEAD. GREAT GOING!!!.Hashranger2000Version: 22.1
Not truly counting steps...Pretty cool app, but asking access to my iPhone’s health app to verify steps and only compute half or 1/3 of the actual steps taken registered by my iPhone is pointless. Is this not to give user sweatcoins? Why not use your app to piggyback onto the health app and use the data recorded on both apps (yours and iPhone) to verify so there’s no cheating? I have a 10 acre homestead and walk A LOT all day. Outdoors. When it’s very hot I switch my sleeping schedule to do chores throughout the night and sleep when it’s the hottest part of the day.
My iPhone counted 11k steps in one day, Sweatcpins registered 4K....
the idea of the app is awesome to inventive people to stay moving, but you (developers) should be a bit more in tune with whatever app you request access to on our phones.
Oh, and because I know I take thousands of steps every day, I opted for a system that charges me 20 sweatcoins a month, but if you’re not counting truly all the steps I take, I may just delete your app, because it feels like the ones whos cheating here is you... will keep it a little longer and see what happens.
Understand that allowing you to track my location and access to my health data is not something I want you to have for free, like everything in this world, data mining comes with a price, and if you’re not offering your users a decent payout and registering ALL the steps I take, you may not get to keep my data... and that’s not my isolated opinion....CatLadyOnTheFarmVersion: 6.1
Hitting points that matter!So, I hope I can encourage at least ONE person to dowload this app! Sweat coin has been doing updates lately making the app even better than it already is . I enjoy having it run in the background because it actually calculates the steps you take . Yes, you have to do some form of walking , No , you can’t sit still & expect steps to calculate on their own . You can only spend the money you make on items that are IN the app store! But they always switch items up and there’s a cash “item” as well when you reach a certain dollar amount on your balance . I’ve read reviews & see that some are complaining about how Sweat Coin wants to share data with your health app, pay attention when you are being asked! You do NOT have to share your data with Sweat Coins, they just ask. So I’m not sure what made people give them a bad review because overall the app does what it says it will do! If you lack motivation to move around, download this amazing app that should motivate you to move quite frequently! There’s not many apps that actually do what they tell their customers that they’ll do, but the Sweat Coin app is worth the space on your phone! Spread the word & let’s motivate each other to walk more frequently!
Awesome app Sweat Coin developers!.CAYDENCEMARIEVersion: 22.1
Good App, Junk item shopThe app itself is great, if your looking for an app to track your steps when you walk and build up a currency you can “use” to buy things. Building up sweat coins is relatively fast. Within my first 2 weeks of walking I had an equivalent $100 dollars in sweat coins. I now have thousands saved up. That part of the app is great. Where it’s not so great, and makes the app almost useless to me, is the item shop to redeem your sweat coins. From what I can tell, there are 2 kinds of items you can buy: subscriptions for music stuff or fitness related companies (with most being only 50% off when you purchase with sweat coins) or physical items such as ear buds, charging docks, gift cards, ext…. The subscriptions work, yeah, but they are of no interest to me as I would rather use my sweat coins on the physical items. Good luck trying to buy any kind of physical item. They are ALWAYS out of stock or unavailable. I check the app regularly, multiple times a day, to try to buy these physical items. And after weeks of it, I have yet to find any item released that doesn’t instantly show unavailable or sold out. They even include some bogus “1.4K people purchased this. Join them” next to the item. If you are looking for an app where you get paid to walk and you want to buy SUBSCRIPTIONS ONLY download this. If you are downloading this app to try to buy physical items like I mentioned, or the one shown in the apps pictures on the App Store, steer away from this app because you will NEVER get any item like that..Austin mistanskiVersion: 134.0
Does not work for joggingThe app counts my steps almost 100% if I walk indoors or outside. About a month ago I switched from walking to jogging, and have found that it does not record most of my steps when jogging. It has nothing to do with my phone, network, placement of phone while jogging. I live less than 10 miles away from a large city, run different routes and have tried holding the phone in my hand while I run and also tried putting it in a pocket where the phone is resting against my leg. Runkeeper and iOS health app have no problem recording my steps and route. Runkeeper even knows when I cross the street or run around somebody on the trail so it’s pretty accurate.
I believe this has to do with Sweatcoin not believing that I’m actually running. It does not matter how far I go, every time I go out for a jog it records between the first 1,200 to 1,300 steps, then after that I get maybe 100 for every 2,000. This happens every single day so it seems like the program is just shutting me out around the 1,200 mark.
All that said Sweatcoin does not state anywhere that is supports jogging. So I can’t fault them for that, they are simply a walking step counter. I deducted a star because the rewards are getting cheaper and cheaper. Over the past year or so of using this I have earned about $3,000 coins. The reward for $20,000 has gone from $1,000 or an iPhone, to a TV, now to a hair dryer or massage device worth about $300. As more and more people near $20,000, I think they will keep reducing the prize or increase the amount needed..Jjj216jjjVersion: 59.0
There’s a lot to talk aboutOk so sweatcoin is an interesting app. you really have to not delete the app if you want anything worth purchasing. i have joined in december of 2017, and i have around 1.8k coins. i am writing this review in april of 2019. first off is the purchase you can make with sweatcoin. the proportions really do not line up at all. for example, you can buy some fancy socks worth 15$ for 1.5k sweatcoin. now, you can also buy a jewelry subscription and a 21$ shopping credit for a mere 10 sweatcoin. the proportions rarely line up. sure, the developers can’t argue too much with their companies but still it should be slightly better. next, is the things you can buy. it’s all repetitive items and they are most of the time all discounts for items. idk about everyone else, but i want to buy stuff for free. no money involved PERIOD. too many of the free offers are MUCH too expensive and cost too much sweatcoin for one person no matter how much they walk. speaking of which, the step counter algorithm is god awful. sure, you don’t want people shaking their phones but COME ON. i have a fitbit and it tells be i walk around 8k steps everyday! sweatcoin on the other hand that only 1k of those 8k were actually real steps. at least let the algorithm be a little more generous here. now, you really want this app, just download it, forget about it, and check every week or so to see what offers are new. (please improve the algorithm and add in more free stuff).Jlwex12Version: 23.0
It’s in the middle. Here’s why👇Sweatcoin is an okay app. I used it in the beginning for the main reason of making easy money. Honestly I think that’s the main reason we all got it in the first place. But when you’re so hung up on it, it will frustrate you. When I first got it, I wanted to open all the prizes and everything so I could make as much money as possible. Soon I figured out everytime you opened the app or opened a gift, it would give you an ad. Not to mention the gifts are usually a prize of .1 cents and the ads are more than a minute long. So if you are trying to be on this app every day and checking for your money, know you will be faced with ads. Fortunately for me, I kind of got sick of the ads so I just basically forgot about the app. I left it in my phone but never checked it. Over time the more I walked, the more I got paid. Eventually 2 months later i was going through my old apps and came across it. I saw I had a balance of 70$. Not only did it pay me, it let me buy other things in the market for way cheaper than the actual price. Sweatcoin works in a currency of Sweatcoins. Anytime you walk a thousand steps, you get a Sweatcoin. On the marketplace instead of getting something for 5$, you might get it for 3 sweatcoins and it’ll take away from your balance. Over all I think the ads are a little too obsessive and take up a lot of your time. But if you forget the app is there and check it in a month, you will have promising results. Gladly you don’t have to regularly be on the app to make money. Anyway take my word for it. I think it would do you no harm. 😉.Minionfan12345Version: 175.0.0
Seems like a scam but it’s notIt seems like a scam at first but I had to read more reviews from the current updated versions. I’m still gonna use it since I tried out the premium free trial but I heard it doesn’t properly convert your steps into the coins like it claims. 1,000 steps is supposed to be 1 sweat coin and I read that sum people were only getting like .25 from like 3,000 steps. The response team added a comment a year later claiming they fixed this in a new update so I’m gonna see for myself. The only thing cool is the auctions, i see someone won a brand new oled Nintendo switch including a $500 gift card for like 33,000 coins. I got a week free trial. If it works I’m gonna try the year plan. I think it would take 500K steps just to get 1,000 sweat coins if my math is correct. I double checked and it’s accurate, although if I’m making around close to a million steps a year that’s almost 2K sweatcoins and this could motivate me to try to double, triple, maybe even quadruple my average so by the end of the year I’ll have enough coins to get something cool in the auction. Even if I quadrupled my average it would take 5 years just to make 30K sweatcoins lol if I’m paying 25 a year that’s $125 I’m paying for 30K, and the auction always has really cool stuff that people win for less than 30K so I’m excited. They are auctioning off sum really expensive stuff like workout equipment. Someone won a $1500 Nike gift card for just 26,000 coins. So while u do have to pay yearly into it, it actually does guarantee you that you will get tons more in return if you stick to it and bid on the auctions. They have this thing called daily boost. So for 20 minutes every day I can earn 4 coins for every 1000 steps instead of 2. Which is even more motivation to exercise everyday..RealddosVersion: 106.0
The future is here... but needs a little workThe future has arrived ! In regards to online cryptocurrency that is. What better way to earn “money” than by sweating! This app is fairly new and still working out some kinks. I myself had managed to earn around $100 worth of sweat coins in one month. Not too bad, especially considering that I’ve been living at St Jude Children’s research hospital in Memphis, TN while my son fights brain cancer. We take him to the park after radiation to enjoy the Mississippi River and the Tom Lee statues and we run it out! How amazing to be rewarded for something that is already rewarding in itself. Watch , before long Sweatcoin is going to be a major currency. And it’s value is going to be tremendous! I’ve already managed to try some pretty amazing (and not so amazing) products via Sweatcoin currency. I am even looking into putting some of my products on there. Think of the diversity of people looking at Sweatcoin! Imagine 2 years from now the publicity Sweatcoin will have for a business owner or marketer. Amazing! I am super stoked about the future of Sweatcoin and already happy with majority of the products I’ve purchased via Sweatcoin. If only shipping were FREE! Then it would get 20/10 ****** stars !.Just lookin for a dealVersion: 13.1
Not going to make you rich, but still a great appI’m a college student who also works, so my walking is mainly to and from classes. In the past 8 months, I’ve made roughly 500 sweatcoins( $25 USD) just from walking and doing their daily add rewards. All you’ve got to do(this May be why I’ve seen other reviews mentioning that steps aren’t counted correctly) is leave the app on. If you want to make an extra 15 sweatcoins a week, watch the daily add ever day. Each add is 30 seconds or less, so I usually watch them while walking to class. I haven’t even been doing the daily adds for long, so let’s assume that I’ve only made 400 sweatcoins from walking, that’s still $20 for something I’m doing anyways. They also have some great deals in the app like joining twine for 100 sweatcoins and having them add $15 to your twine account ($15 equals 300 sweatcoins so it’s a better return value).
All in all, the app isn’t always going to be extremely accurate on step counting, especially since they avoid counting steps inside building, but it’s money you’ll get for essentially doing nothing so can we really complain🤷♂️ love the app. Will keep using it and will keep referring it to friends..Harry1596Version: 23.0
It’s okay?I’ve been in this app for two years and I’ve only earned a bit less then 600 sweat coin, it’s a good concept and a lot of items are free now. But if you need a bank account and all these random things the app should be for 18+, and it’s not. My friend tried buying something and wasted her sweat coin on the product, it used to be kinda creeping when you exited the app from your background apps and the you got a notification that you killed it... they don’t have that now but the was really creepy and would make you feal guilty about it. In addition if you buy one of the prizes for over 10k sweat coin you have to film you going there and sweatcoin gets to Edit the video, I dont see a reason why you have to film your trip going on vacation. Also it would take you years and years with the highest earning sweatcoin choice to earn over 10k sweat coin. If you were someone random marathon runner that’s over 18 and has its own house and everything then this app would be great! But if your just someone super lazy (me) then this isn’t the best app, you could get it when your like a teen and save up for big prizes when your a adult though. I would overall recommend this app it would just take a really long time to save up. 🙂.Princess12333Version: 46.0
AMAZING!Absolutely love this application, it is opening up doors to new products for me and it is allowing me to be more active for certain things. Plus if you already walk a lot it’s an amazing/useful tool to have! The only complaint I have is when you force close the application you receive a notification and the moment you log back on it has an annoying message that you can’t turn off!!! I understand it needs to be open in the background and I also understand that some people might not have that knowledge but is there a way to update it so certain people like me can choose to turn off the message that’s poos up everyone you re-open the application, the only options are to keep clicking I understand or tell me more and it’s seriously annoying... otherwise still 5 stars! Very impressed and I hope that there is still some better algorithms or maybe a way to incorporate an AR(Augmented reality) system for someone like me who goes to the gym and runs on treadmills? Just an idea! Plus it does have a fair amount of battery drain which can be difficult... but I approve of everything you are doing so thanks for making such an awesome app!!.Jkb bbbbVersion: 8.2
How much do you expect to get for WALKING?I do agree that the conversion rate is sometimes wonky, but I don't know where there are so many negative reviews. Everyone is saying how the app is "fake" "scam" and the prizes are "unattainable" because it takes it you years to achieve it... But let me ask you something.. How much do you expect to get paid for walking? You should be happy youre getting paid at all. Do you expect them to give you 20$ a day just to walk?? Dont be ungrateful, if it takes you a little extra time to get the prize so what? whether you get it in 5 years or 10 years youre still getting the $1000, just for walking! Regardless if you use this app or not, youre still gunna be walking right?? Might as well keep this app on in the background and get paid. Sure its a small amount (its like 10cents a day) but still, youre 10cents richer, and in x amount of years itll cumulate to $1000. People nowadays are ridiculous, and so ungrateful. They expect to get everything in a blink of an eye, this app is amazing and a genius! It keeps me motivated to reach my goal. And sometimes I wouldnt mind taking the longer way when walking. I am so glad I found this app!.Chr.st.naVersion: 9.1
Good enoughThis app is great, I downloaded and just leave it alone while letting it use my location. It runs in the back ground so it’s pretty nice to make money by just having the app. Each 1k step is 1 sweatcoin, you have a lot of options how you want to used the coins. You can buy gifts card or anything that’s on the app shop and each day some random items shows up for the day for you to buy and that’s nice cuz it’s different everyday. You can also bid for stuff like expensive stuff like tv and watches. You can donate and help out programS around the world. You can send coins to your friends in my opinion that’s the coolest part about the app. Although the app is great it could be better. There’s a limit of sweatcoin you can earn from steps a day and that 10k step and you can make about 10 sweat coins a day. That’s the not so good part about the app. I’m an outdoor person so i walk way more than what I earn. We should be able to walk and earn as much as we can and get healthier. The bidding is also kinda bad. You can only used what you earn to bid. One time my friend try to bid and don’t got enough coins so I was being a good friend so I sent him some so he can bid but it says that you can only bid with what you earn. He got so mad he deleted the app but I kept it. I hope y’all (sweatcoin owner)reply and fix it. Fix the limit of sweatcoin you can earn each day from the steps. 10k is kinda slow for me cuz I’m a outdoors person Make it to like 15k or something. For the bidding I hope y’all fix that too. Like imagine you only need 100 more sweatcoins to bid but can’t ask for a friend because it will not accept the friends coins. I feel like it will make us better friends and help us to be kind in some way so please change that. I hope y’all reply thanks for the amazing app..HssvgdvVersion: 132.0
Loves subway surfersOk so let me start off by saying sweatcoin is a good app BUT there are some issues. 1. Sweatcoin doesn’t really count your step. I have a Fitbit and it says I walk/run about 7-8k steps a day. On sweatcoin it says that I only take about 4K. I would like sweatcoin to improve this issue. Btw YOU CANNOT EXPECT PEOPLE NOT TO SHAKE THEIR PHONE!! 2. Sweatcoin gives offers that are really low sweatcoins, but shipping is super high. Now I understand shipping is going to cost SOME money but not as much as you guys charge. So I would expect shipping for a lot of cheap stuff to be like $4 or $5 but when I try shipping it here it cost like $20 !!!! I would like for this app to improve this to. But what I do like it that you could earn things just for walking!! Thank you to anyone who made this app but just please improve it. C’mon like just improve and FIX your things and maybe I won’t have to think about deleting this app anymore. I want to have this app because you could get stuff for just walking but this is pretty much like a SCAM. So... for all the people that are thinking the same thing just do what you want to do, but in a few days I might delete this app if it doesn’t get improved and I suggest other people do that too. ☺️.I love hedgehogs 🦔Version: 34.0
Straight Forward AppEven though I originally thought the app was about getting paid real money to walk (I know how stupid it’s no such thing as money that easy lol) I can’t be upset with the fact that I can turn my steps into other beneficial stuff. Just like my title said it’s a very straight forward app and extremely easy to earn “sweatcoins”. A lot of apps that claim to do the same thing try to make you work way too hard to see any real profit, but this app was paying out from the get go. I took a long walk late at night (as I usually do since my PTSD & Depression keeps me wake from time to time) and before I knew it I earned 17 “SweatCoins”. It didn’t take long at all since I only walk around my neighborhood, down to the corner gas station and back home. I was out for an hour but only about 30 mins of that was spent walking. If I earned that much only walking that short about of time I can’t wait to see what I make when I do my long all day walking a various places. This app though is the epitome of you get what you put into it. So get out and grind and make you some “SweatCoins” I know I will lol..DTCarpeDiem83Version: 136.0
Had this app for years and finally deleted itOLD REVIEW:
I thought this would be like every other "pay you to exercise" app out there but this app is, in my opinion, the best one out there. I've only been using it for a short time but I can say in confidence that they do what they say they do. It's not all hype with no follow through. This is the real deal. It truly surprised me in the most pleasant way.
NEW REVIEW:
I’m sick and tired of being told that I didn’t reach my goal. I use the step counter for one purpose: to know how many steps I take in real time. That’s it. I’ll hit my goal repeatedly for several weeks but heaven forbid I miss one day. Maybe try be more encouraging like, “Hey you’ve been doing this every day for a long time. I think you need a break” rather than making someone feel bad for not hitting their “goal” - in fact, I think the goal aspect should be optional but as usual, it is a generic step counter with no real benefit. Even the things they call benefits aren’t really benefits. “Get X days free with your subscription to this!” - I don’t have any of the subscriptions they offered. They used to offer things like gift cards which is what I was more interested in anyway. Generic step counter app officially DELETED 👏.Lizadiane99Version: 183.1.0
Fantastic App!! It’s a big must have!! Just one thing..Thank you so much Sweatcoin, I seriously appreciate you guys ive lost 20 pounds and was able to purchase a WEARABLE KEYBOARD a month or two back with the sweatcoins. I now take about 8k-10k steps a day and its incredible that a free app changed my perspective on fitness it still blows my mind. All my friends have it, we share sweatcoins and were currently 2k away from getting $1000 cash!!!! You guys are incredible!!
The down side of this is that when i downloaded it i hoped it would not only help me lose weight but also earn money, like real money. Ive seen adds all the time on snapchat about getting hundreds of dollars per week or whatever real money USD. And i work like a real job, im only 16 and i hoped i could end up having thousands maybe. Im not saying you all cheated but could you please tell the people that sponsor yall to not scam like that. My friend got pretty upset when she found out it was a lie by a snapchat user.
Other than that you guys’ app is amazing, please keep updating and keep thriving!! You guys are truly amazing i cant thank you enough for the easy easy weight lose!!.TriadBasherVersion: 24.0
6 yearsI have used this app since 2018. I accumulated I decent amount of money from this app. That being said, I cannot spend it. Yes, there are things you can “buy” but theoretically, you still have to pay using your money though your have “earned” the amount by walking through the application and spending it that way, not including the free stuff.
I’ve been saying this for the past couple of years and I’m gonna say it now ADD A CASH OUT OPINION! PLEASE! It’s crazy how in almost 6 years that’s still not an option yet in this platform has grown so much. I keep it on my phone and hopes of one day there will be a cash out option but it’s very difficult and even when there is some form of that through PayPal, it’s first come first serve and it’s not like I live on the app all the time. I just think if some of us have been on this app for quite some time, should be able to have more incentives, especially if we keep the app and walk to earn money, it would only make sense that we would get an option to just pay out instead of spending the money we’ve earned to still spend our own money. just something to think about..Aaustin234Version: 162.11
Very good app idea. 3.5/5This app is a very good app. when you first start you can get a lot of sweatcoins fast, but as time goes on it get harder and harder to make a couple a day. I used to make almost 8-10 a day now it’s hard making one or two. The app has a great idea to get out side more but the majority of people I see using it are people who are at school or at work. Once I got almost 20,000 steps but only 600 of them counted because those are the only ones that were “outside” steps, when I had to go shopping at the mall. I was not happy to say the least when I had around 20,000 steps and almost none of them counted. Your app in whole is very good. You have a great app idea but one recommendation is that any and all steps count because everybody I see uses it while they’re at work school or every day life and they don’t really have the time to get out as much as most people do. I know myself I do a lot of walking around in school and my home but I can’t really get out as much but I try to as much as possible so I can get any sweatcoins. Just one little tidbit is that please Think about changing your app so that all steps count towards sweatcoins. Keep you algorithm that processes steps but please try to change it a little so that actually works..AdventurehunterYTVersion: 8.3
Just one thingOk great idea for an app and I can’t wait for them start converting your sweatcoins to actual money through blockchain. I walk so much every day [even when I’m off work] I’ll probably upgrade to shaker when cash conversion is made available. If the conversion amount is fair I’ll be able to make back my subscription money with my walking money and still turn a small profit. My annoyance is relatively minor but I have plenty to say about it..
I’ll admit the notification I get when I close the app without thinking is useful [it’s easy enough to click the notification to reopen the app in less than a second] albeit slightly annoying, but the message that scrolls across the screen every time I reopen it is too much. I don’t have time to let the message finish typing and click the “Got it” button, in fact being in a hurry is usually the reason I accidentally close it completely instead of just clicking away or locking my screen to slip it in my pocket. I’m sure it counts my steps whether or not I tap the button, but it’s just unnecessary. Can’t you remind me to leave the app open without demanding confirmation? Sometimes I’ll close the app to save battery and I feel like I’m getting reprimanded for it by having to click a button to verify that I’ve been told not to do that. It feels pushy. Why should I have to be like “Yes I know I’m not supposed to do that, I’m sorry, I won’t do it again. ‘Got it.’” If I want to force close an app on my phone I will. Unless you’re stealing information from my phone, you shouldn’t care. The first notification is courteous, the second one is sketchy.
I’m only dropping 1 star for this and if the issue is fixed I’ll come right back here to give 5 stars. From what I can tell so far it’s a great app with loads of potential..Donovan KaiVersion: 7.2
Amazing!Sweatcoin is great! I’m on this app every day, and it proves to be a great motivator to get moving and be active! I love the concept of utilizing steps as a currency. Upon referring others friends to this app and them downloading it, I did note, however, that the layout of the app is different for some of them. For example, I am using this app on an iPhone 11, and one friend of mine runs it on an iPhone 7. His app has a “challenges” section where I suppose he can do challenges with those he’s connected with. He also has a feature where there is a leaderboard each week comparing him to his followers, where he can see who has taken the most steps for the week. I don’t have these features, and I would love to be able to enjoy them on the app. I was just wondering why these features are available on his phone but not mine, or if there is a setting or way to get these features on my app and I’m just not seeing it? Sweatcoin is great! So far I have gotten 5 people to download the app. I feel that if I were able to have the features that some of my friends have, my Sweatcoin experience would be even better!.Sway_04Version: 84.0

Annoyed by the “You killed me”It might not be a popular opinion but having the need to run the app at all times annoys me a lot. Can’t it just convert the steps say every ten mins the app is running?

Sweatcoin Walking Step Counter Negative Reviews
Worse and worseI’ve been using this app since 2018 and initially it was pretty good, even though it didn’t track indoor steps, it “forced” me to go outside and actually take a walk. The app itself works okay. It tracks most of your steps even indoors nowadays so last year I decided to pay for the “Troublemaker”, which enables you to gain up to 50 Sweatcoins a day. Everything was working okay until about February when a new version of the app was rolled out, which disabled a feature that made it possible to manually convert your steps rather than waiting for the server to automatically “pull” the information. Ever since that happen I’ve had a number of issues. Some days pulling just stops and I lose out on Sweatcoins. I have contacted support several times about it but the responses are few and far apart and are usually useless, basically just repeating the FAQs already listed in the app. Since these issues didn’t happen that frequently, I figured I would run out my year and then go back to the Free tier. Unfortunately it seems after implementing the new “Premium” tier the problems escalated and became more frequent. For the past couple of weeks I have now only been able to max out at 47.5 coins instead of the promised 50 and the last couple of days, it has now been slashed to 25!!! As usual I have an open support request with a useless response. I now have a vested interest in getting the app to work but if you are looking for a new step counting app, this is probably not it….NoMoreDiceVersion: 94.0
Inaccurate step conversionThis app is somewhat motivating, but very frustrating. My biggest issue is their algorithm for step conversion—it’s wildly inaccurate and undercounts my steps by at least 50% every day. Today for example, I did my 20 minute daily boost - inside, on a treadmill, walking with my phone in my hand. I could literally see the steps ticking up in the app during this time, and before the boost ended, I had over 2000 steps in. Then, when the boost was complete and the steps were “calculated”, the app told me that I had somehow taken a measly 356 steps in that time! SECONDS before, it said I had taken 2000+. My Apple Watch and phone also said that I had taken over 2000 steps, and once I exited out of the boost, my total steps had increased by over 2000 as well. But for some reason, Sweat Coin decided that only a fraction of my steps actually counted. Seriously?!
To make matters worse, I actually PAY for this app because I assumed that it would be the fastest way to get coins for the offers and products…since I’m constantly and consistently being inaccurately converted, though, it’s probably taking just as long as if it were accurately counting my steps without any “boosts” or bonuses. I feel cheated and will definitely not be renewing my subscription.
The rewards are fine. The app itself is attractive. I do find it motivating to try to increase my activity and distance. But omg, walking 15k steps in a day and only getting credit for 7k is just BAD..LizaLoveVersion: 86.0
I’ve been a member since 2020The app is great to forget about, letting it run in the background while counting steps. Even as the app progressed on to use actual transactions for memberships, I didn’t really care because premium never had anything of real interest to me. In two years I’ve only ever bought a few things: one, months back was some “earphones” from EarTouch for 250 coins. I bought a pack of four because you really couldn’t beat the price and I figured they would each blow out a week within use. Only two came in and I put a dispute in and nothing came of it, and I really wasn’t about to fight over some dingy ear plugs. The second and most recent was a sams club membership 50% off which took you to some third party site known for being disreputable for the purchase. Mind you there was nothing on the offer about having to go to it, otherwise I wouldn’t have paid the coin to purchase. The rest and only things ever worth while that I’ve purchased are the apple and audible memberships, which come of no use after the subscription is up. Other memberships are often useless because they’re running the same deal or better than what sweat coin offers. I want to like the app and I know the devs have to make sure that the offers are recycled to keep them updated, but very few things come along that are worthwhile or valid. Save for those rare occasions you find something decent and valid, otherwise, do your research before spending real money on something that might scam you..R. EldridgeVersion: 111.0
Not as great as promisedSweat coin has a great idea but it isn’t being executed very well. First off the step counter is WAY off, all the time. I noticed from the beginning I was getting cheated out of at least 1000 steps a day, usually more. When you finally have generated enough steps to buy something your options are seriously limited. Most of them fall into health and fitness categories, which I don’t mind it would just be nice to have a bit more variety. Then after you get past the physical items they have a variety of coupons to offer in exchange for sweat coins. Please don’t buy coupons on this app, I promise you can get almost all of them from a different source without having to pay anything for them. A quick Google search will find the same coupon. I did that frequently and saved my sweat coins. I only was able to buy on thing with my sweat coins that I was interested in. In the end I ended up paying about $20 in shipping for the item. It was a bag of coffee and I was really hesitant to pay, but since I had already used my sweat coins I didn’t want to waste them. The app would also continuously crash on me as well. Ultimately I donated the rest of my sweat coins to charity, which I am willing to bet much of the money did not actually go to said charity. I have since deleted this app and I don’t see myself getting it again. If another app pops up following the same idea in a more honest way, I’ll probably give it a try..Hello_roccoVersion: 79.0
Just a big adI’ve been using Sweatcoin for a couple years now. It’s always on in the background, as per their instructions. It takes ages to earn any coins, especially since the app freezes in the background and doesn’t count my steps! The conversion rate doesn’t add up (and yes, I do keep the app updated regularly). That wouldn’t bother me (no matter the conversion rate, money for steps is still money for steps), but you can’t get anything decent with them. When I first installed the app, they offered at least the occasional PayPal gift card or similar. They were very expensive, but they were there. Now, everything in the market place is just an ad for a free trial or X% off your first whatever subscription—all “deals” you can get directly from those websites without spending Sweatcoins. The auction is a joke, there’s only ever one going at a time and it always ends at 6am. At least toggle the ending times between them so people in other time zones have a chance! The donation area has some good causes, but I can’t find anything there that explains the conversion rate for the donates Sweatcoins, so I don’t know how much actual money is going to these organizations. 2 million Sweatcoins could just be a couple hundred dollars, who knows? Now they have their own cryptocurrency you can convert your coins into, and that’s the final straw for me. This app really did nothing for me, it doesn’t have good enough rewards to motivate me to walk regularly, it’s just a money grab by a greedy company to sell ad space..Aidan not AidenVersion: 164.1.0
Gotten progressively worseI really enjoyed having sweatcoin run while my phone was off and going about my day. i also loved the fact you’re not able to pay money for sweatcoins. HOWEVER, it’s been a while since i had the app, and recently decided to redownload after had gotten a new phone a while back. there’s now a “premium” version that now gives this game a pay-to-play feel, allowing better prizes and more sweatcoins to be earned by people who pay the $25 a year or $5 a month. the only way this is better than allowing people to just buy the sweatcoins, is the fact that they still would have to walk.
these ads also need to be seriously improved. i cannot stand apps that are made to encourage gambling and scams, it is a horrible look for the developers. in addition, while this is just personal opinion, out of all 4 years of having this app, ive never gotten a daily bonus above 5 sweatcoins. the atrocity of making it very difficult to earn sweatcoins to exchange for prizes and subscriptions is the reason why i didn’t redownload the app.
the prizes used to be good—cashing out paypal, tvs, actual things people use—no longer available. health and fitness subscriptions, and other junk like “a holographic hat” is just unnecessary to be for a prize. all the good stuff is in auctions, where people dump their balances into to win; only one prize to win in said auction, and that’s it. this app has become very lame, and the cherry on top is the reviews. developer response is copy and paste to people who aren’t having the same problems. minimum concern to the consumer. please make this app good again.€ookiesVersion: 117.0
Not what it used to beI made my account December 4, 2017 and I’m not going to complain about the algorithm for getting/achieving sweatcoins. I’m a moderate walker and I take public transportation so most the times when I am walking it’s just to get from point A to point B but that’s not what I’m complaining about what I am complaining about is the Rewards. when I first started using this app, you had the ability to get iPhones to get prepaid debit cards of your choice or just straight up transfer your sweatcoins into cash via your PayPal account now all of those options are gone and the sweatcoins app just looks like one giant advertisement everything in the shop tab says you can get this item 40% off or 30% off but there’s a catch you can only get these deals if your first time users, these aren’t even regular coupons most of the time you’re lucky if you can get 40% 30% or 20% off deal without having to be a first time user I’ve constantly complained within the app about the rewards and I have not seen anything being done about them so at this point, I might as well just delete the app and free up some space on my phone but if you just want to use this app as a fun little challenge between friends while you’re jogging or going about your day-to-day activities, then this is the app for you otherwise don’t even bother.So_uncuteVersion: 164.0.0
Used to love app, don’t know what happenedI have been on this app for YEARS. I have used it in the past to get a few things, and some pretty cool stuff at that. But as of the past almost 6 months, it seems like the app might be turning to a scam. All of the deals have become moreso coupons off. And that’s honestly fine. But what isn’t is the way the actual items you buy with sweatcoin have become. Now there’s typically one, maybe two items you can buy for sweat coins. For months every time I’d see them they’d say they were sold out. And that sucked but I always saw it as being on me for not seeing it soon enough. But for the past few weeks anytime I go to buy something that says it is available, the transaction details go up, I swipe it, it loads for the transaction to go through then it says item is out of stock. If this was one, maybe even two items I wouldn’t be too upset, but this has been EVERY daily item I’ve tried to buy for a couple weeks. I tried around 10 transactions that would load then say item out of stock. It almost feels like the actual items aren’t even able to be purchased anymore. I have tried to complain and reach out to customer support but they have all sent the same automatic reply email that EVERY complaint gets acknowledging that you have sent a call for support, then leaves that as the extent of their customer support. I used to love this app, I thought it was so cool and really helped me stay actively walking for a time. But that incentive has gone away and I’m not sure if the app is purposefully not coming through and what it has promised..GynbdhbgVersion: 128.0
They lie about how quickly you get prizesMy friends told me about this app and I thought it sounded cool. The prize system seems like a nice way to encourage people to walk, and I actually did diligently go about earning my coins a day for a while. The most appealing prize to me was the $1000 PayPal cash, worth 20,000 sweatcoins, which the app very clearly says is attainable of 18 months of steps. It also says that all the coins put toward this goal must be earned by you so you can’t pool coins with friends. However, with just basic math you can find that the most coins you can even earn in a month is 600, and to get 20,000 earning 600 a month would take 2.7 years. Not 18 months. If you wanted to earn this with the basic free version that allows you to get 5 a day max, it would take 11 years. There are many 20,000 sweatcoin prizes, and for all you out there hoping to get one after a good consistent effort over the course of 18 months, which is a long haul but doable with the right dedication, just know that you won’t get there for years and even if you’re consistently earning the max the app will let you it will still take almost twice as long as they tell you it will. Knowing this really ruins the drive you have to work for prizes if you know it’ll take years and years to earn. Also, they outright lie about how fast you can get there, which I think bothers me the most. As per this apps current setup, it is not possible to get there in any way in anytime time frame even close to 18 months..ZoxkaskvVersion: 8.2
Deleting the app for the second timeI downloaded the app a year ago. I wasn’t really benefiting from it and needed the extra space in my phone so I deleted it. I redownloaded the app a month ago in hopes that the app had improved and I noticed it had pretty decent reviews since I uninstalled it so I gave it another try. The app does not count all of your steps and it only works with your phone or an Apple Watch of certain versions. The app doesn’t allow you to use other smart watches even though my smart watch has all of the qualifications that the creators claim their app needs. I sent them a support problem ticket bringing up several issues to take into consideration and they sent me the generic answer on their forum about solving the problem instead of actually reading the ticket and sending a reply. I messaged them back asking them to read the ticket and to get back with me but after a week of waiting I got nothing. I sent another ticket and within 2 minutes got another generic answer to my problem that had nothing to do with what was actually on the ticket. I gave two stars because the idea behind the app is a good one but the app itself needs work, not to mention the customer support is tacky and useless if you’re problem isn’t addressed in their help me section. I am uninstalling the app again but I don’t see myself giving it a third chance after this.Mrs.rodeo21Version: 15.0
Don't downloadThe app in itself is pretty okay, its easy to use and functional and i have been using this app for months. My problem began when i used on of their services to score free samples of focus and sleep gummies from a candy company that i will not be naming, because it seems like they charge you money from even mentioning them. I was charged two dollars for shipping, which isn't much, and my samples arrived a few days later. I was only sent an email regarding my order and that was it. No where ever was a subscription mentioned. not on the app, not on the website, and not in ANY email. About a month later though I was charged 100$ by said website for a subscription service that i "signed up for". i was never ever offered nor told of the subscription service and i am extremely mad. I barely have any money as is (which is why i downloaded this godforsaken app in the first place) and have been stressed out for months (something those gummies were supposed to help relieve mind you) but this has made it so much worse beyond any level. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP. They promote it as this "get money by walking" app to trick people who have no money into downloading it and tricking them into buying useless subscriptions. i am livid right now. i needed that money and i might not get a refund. do not download this waste of space app. i was a stupid desperate high school student who's family is barely getting by and they used that to their advantage, which is honestly evil in itself. thank you for reading, and i hope whoever made this app has the worst day of their life..HberryyyVersion: 141.0
SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAMWhere do I even begin?? Okay- so I’ve started out with sweat coin and there are SO many issues honestly; 1, the accuracy of the tracker only accounts to about 10-25%, which means that of the 7,000 steps I walk in a day I only get the credit for about 5,000 of those- a 2,000 difference. 2, when I finally chose an item ( the asleep gummies for five SWEATCOINS, NOT MONEY), at the checkout I was asked to fill out my credit card information IN DETAIL AND I QUOTE, “ Enter your name exactly as it’s written on your card”. I know I’ve had my moments but c’mon I’m not an idiot. More into detail upon this subject, when you go to “ pay” for said item in specific writing one of the steps claims that a discount will automatically be applied to the purchase, which means that my credit card information isn’t and SHOULDN’T be needed at all!! However this is not the case and NO WHERE in the app is there a discount for purchases related to the app. None. Go look, please. I was recommended this app and was told it wasn’t a scam, however upon further investigation this was proven invalid and completely ridiculous. If something doesn’t give within the next 24 hours, I’m deleting the app and having the person who recommended it to me delete it as well. Please don’t trust apps like this they’re all scams and if you think they’re not- check your credit card and payment history. Double check all of it..Anonymous #9483Version: 112.0
Beware of this appIf I could give this app a zero star, I would. 1) For you to get any real prize, say a $50 gift card, you’ll have to walk OUTSIDE for 20 miles, that’s over 180,000 steps COUNTED. 2) This app doesn’t count all your steps. I just did an experiment of walking to the mall (it said 4310) and back and it said it only saw 51 steps. That’s $.04 sweatcoins. Mind you, I did not walk inside the mall, just from my doorstep to the the bus stop in front the mall and back (I live close by). The amount of steps on my Apple Watch was 7215 for both directions, while this app saying something different. Over 2800 steps off. 3) It drains your battery life significantly while open in the background. 4) it using your location constantly with no real reward for it. And I don’t see why it’s using the GPS if it cannot calculate the amount of steps it would take from point A to point B CORRECTLY. Makes no sense. 5) You’ll have to pay money for these so call “prizes” at a 3% discount rate (when you do the calculations). This is nothing but a scheme for you to sell your location and activity for nothing really. While forcing you to spend money on things you really don’t NEED. It’s a profitable business for the developers while us users lose.
In conclusion, is this what you worth users? Sell yourself to someone who’s paying well for you, cause at the end of the day, that’s all this about, cyber prostitution. Just keeping it real. *App deleted*.NakheelSVersion: 12.0
HOW DO WE GET REWARDSI was told about this and you earn money for walking so I downloaded it and the fact it has to access a bunch of crap is completely stupid and better yet they said that we would give you a gift card k cool when? In 5 years? I’ve had it for a week now and almost 10,000 steps a day and no reward. I’m about to delete it because I’m starting to think it’s fake. Excuse me while I go walk around the world and see if I get nothing (Probably won’t). I just checked my phone and sweat coin and it was the same (pat on the back there sweat coin) but then I checked my Fitbit charge 2 and it said 3,028 steps my phone (and sweat coin) said like 1,600 something. I’m not necessarily blaming Apple I’m blaming sweat coin because why can’t you like connect too my Fitbit bit you can connect to a Apple Watch makes ALOT of sense. Also it’s like 1,000 steps a sweat coin right? (That’s acodring to me) if the developers are purposely doing this I might as well delete sweat coin it’s basically useless, except for taking up my storage I’ll say that. So I literally just found out how to spend it so I went and not some stuff then accidentally put on 010 think it would be 0.10 but I couldn’t see the . because I have a cracked phone screen . So.. can I get a refund or something? Also it would be nice if Sweatcoin would like send you a gift card and ask for a address would be nice then buying a bunch of at of this world random stuff.Im CR7 at this gameVersion: 32.0
Absolute trashI have never taken time to review any app but I felt very compelled to as I just tried to send feedback through from a prompted “do you love out app??” and after several attempts of hitting the frowned face and explanation with it saying “could not send feedback” as an error code…guess what?? It went through fine when I changed it to a smiley face….hmmm. So basically I signed up for it a few years ago seeing if I could get something back for the steps I was doing. At the time they would occasionally post some Apple products (from big big points accumulating, but fair enough) along with some little $5 things and some 50% off things. I don’t mind being marketed to in a free app as long as they’re providing value to me. Maybe the paid version has more, but I’m not here to buy things I’m here to trade an activity for goods at the cost of being marketed to. Now it’s nothing but free trials and coupons after years of steps. Don’t waste your time, they don’t want to use those dollars the marketers are paying them to make it a remotely valuable experience for users. I don’t even trust they’re properly donating from the “donation” section of purchases. The fake feedback was what disgusted me enough to make a public review- if you’ve built an app that so bad you won’t even take feedback within the app, I guess I’ll just have to post publicly..Buffaloh20Version: 156.0
Honestly it DOESN’T PAYSo I downloaded this app out of curiosity because tik tok promotes it a lot. I had it installed in my phone for months and I understood the following things: 1) For every 1000 steps you will earn 1 sweatcoin. 2) You can make more sweatcoins by watching cheesy annoying ads (however at least in my experience I never earned more than 20 sweatcoins by doing that). 3) You need at least 700+ sweat coins to purchase a $5 gift card (although I suppose they sell fast because they never have them in stock. 4) You can enter sweepstakes or bids for 2 sweatcoins to win gift cards or goods but you’ll need to spend an average of 200 sweatcoins to have a minimum chance of winning (some people bid thousands for a $50 gift card). 5) You can pay a subscription to have better chances at making more sweatcoins and to have a wider range of sweepstakes. 6) Sometimes you can get promotion codes to shop at certain online stores but they never work. 7) You CAN’T redeem your sweatcoins for real money (although that’s not what they advertise in their ads). In conclusion this app is great at getting your data and making you waste time. The one thing I like about this app is that it motivates some people to do physical activity which I find fantastic! My advice is to find a better gig if you want to make real money and to never give up on exercising..Nast&SapVersion: 192.0.0
Coming from a 13 year oldI’ve have this app for a couple of weeks almost a month and I’ve made about 40$. Me being young and not really paying attention I thought nothing was wrong about this app. Although it says that it pays you for your steps and for the daily exercise it gives you cause of quarantine, it doesn’t pay in cash. I know most apps don’t pay in cash but they go onto a credit card or a prize, but I’ve been looking and can’t seem to find how to add a card to the app to transfer the money I make to the card. I’ve seen that what you make goes as credits to gas and shopping. People downloaded this app and walk and stay fit to make money but not understanding that what you make might not even be very helpful for when you want to go online shopping or going to grab a lunch. Another problem I’ve noticed was that you can walk 1,000 steps for example and it would only count about 200 of the steps you took, which drops down the cents you could have made accurately. I’ve talked to my mom about this and we’ve both agreed that it was a scam and that it was a waist of time. I personally think that this app shouldn’t be downloaded and should be deleted if already downloaded. For a 13 year old I didn’t think I would be able to notice these mistakes, but they are way too noticeable and causes major problems..102947785Version: 45.0
A revolutionary app stoops to profes. S C A M ARTIST!The fact that this app persuades us users into paying for the monthly subscription to get more coins for our actual steps taken + more prize opportunities is absurd. I feel 1 0 0 % scammed due to the fact that I have been checking the shop daily as well as paying for the subscription for almost 2 months (not to mention I’ve been using the app itself for almost 5 YEARS!!!!! & not ONE item for purchase w/ sweat coins hasn’t been sold out… I can never redeem for prizes besides the products being advertised by discounting them for the sellers. I even check at midnight right when the new items in the shop refresh & they’re STILL SOLD OUT. This app is an absolute S C A M 🚨. I’m realizing we’re being convinced to pay the monthly fee for nothing but “sold out” prizes that aren’t even real. First impression was 4- 5yrs ago when I downloaded. I was honestly excited & impressed by their great idea for an app to help get ppl motivated to be more active. What caught my eye was the top prize for my steps was $1000 for 20,000 SC. I knew it would take me at very least a year but I was determined!Now my impression of the app.. it’s becoming a full scam & of course has taken that $1K prize down. Def disappointed & won’t be continuing to use this myself and ESPECIALLY will never embarrass myself again by recommending to friends!.AnnfartsalotVersion: 132.0
DON’T waste your time with this app!!!This app is a SCAM!!! You think you’re earning free money just by walking around outside, but here’s the catch; the items you can purchase with your Sweatcoins still demand some of your own money for shipping, membership, etc. and you end up getting sucked into something you thought was a good deal, but I’ve checked multiple times and they probably save you only $2 at most.
I’ve read soooo many reviews saying that Sweatcoin ripped them off after they had already spent their unfairly earned coins for “prizes” and when they tried to fix the problem with Customer Service, they never picked up, never returned phone calls, kept getting transferred to person after person, you name it. (I don’t say unfairly earned lightly, you could participate in 5 marathons in a day and they would only give you about $2 worth of coins) Thankfully, I didn’t experience this first hand because I was saving my coins for the ultimate price; $1,000. And I’m so glad I deleted the app before I invested too much time into it, because I would have been furious!!
ALSO, they track your location 24/7 to continuously count the steps you take every hour of every day, but honestly that is just straight up sketchy....Not worth it. ANDDDD they force you to keep the app running so it can be on in the background, lurking, tracking, and watching your every move. How creepy is that???.MonalyssaBrookeVersion: 25.0
UnrealisticThe idea of this app is great! The only problem is that the prizes take months if not literal decades to earn from the most simple prizes like the Starbucks gift card to that ridiculous unrealistic free airline ticket, and if you actually did the math for the airline ticket it would’ve taken you realistically 7 years plus to even think about getting it because it would expire or change by the time you save up your balance. The point is if you want people to actively use this app and actually remember that it exists or keep people from deleting it just make the prizes more simple and not as time consuming to get . For example instead of a $50 Starbucks gift card make it a $5 gift card, it would only take about a week to get rather than 3 months to half a year realistically and most importantly, for the creators of this currently useless app that prize would be actually be used way more often by users which would profit the app and the businesses they’re contracting with. We have jobs, lives, and priorities. The way the app is set up now is as if the creators think that an average person’s top priority is to spend most of their life on this app. If this doesn’t change then this app is completely useless and will be forgotten. Lastly don’t give a max limit of what one can earn in a day, that directly defeats the purpose of encouraging people to get fit, and stop with the inappropriate ads of people holding a stack of cash of $10,000 saying that they got it from this app. Unprofessional and immature and a flat out lie and most importantly a complete waste of one’s time!.HdhejejejejeVersion: 9.0
Could Be A Lot Better TBHI downloaded this app because I’m a walker. I walk anywhere between 12k steps to 25k steps a day. So far I’ve had this app for three days and I’ve made 29 sweatcoins which isn’t bad. I figured if I was going to be walking sm anyways that I should be compensated for it lol. Just browsing through the stuff to buy though I’ve been a little disappointed. Mostly all they offer are free trials of apps or subscriptions or you can use your hard earned sweatcoins to pay for percentages off of expensive items or subscriptions. Some items you pay for you do also have to pay shipping, which is kinda lame. I wish that they would offer gift cards that you could cash out for. Even if they were expensive in sweatcoins I feel like that would be more worth it for a prize, gives people something to save up for and cash out on for a rainy day fund. They do offer auctions, where you can bid for like expensive tech items or like a $500 gift card, but the people who bid on those things spend like hundreds of thousands of sweatcoins, so unless you’re a Sweatcoin millionaire you don’t stand a chance 😂. You get paid okay if you walk a lot, if you don’t walk much then you probably won’t make much money. Just wish the prizes were better..EverxstVersion: 166.1.0
Creepy ScamThis app is just a means of tracking you for free, and I will tell you why. The prizes take an extraordinarily long time to reach, even if you are walking the maximum amount each day. There is a $1000 PayPal prize which the app says is available after 18 MONTHS, but even if you are on the highest subscription, it would take you about 3 YEARS to earn this reward unless you referred the app to a ton of friends for 5 sweatcoins each. 3 years of data on how much you walk, how much all of your friends walk, and where. In the meantime you are left with some truly mediocre rewards (granted, I’ve been on it for a day), forcing you to keep walking to try to earn an iPhone, gift card, or television . If you walk inside, the steps aren’t counted, but the app will still be tracking you without giving you sweatcoins. If you aren’t earning anything for being tracked then you should close the app to save your data/battery, right? Sweatcoin doesn’t think so. It will ping you with a notification saying “You killed me! 😳 Do not force quit me if you want to generate sweatcoins. Tap here or walk 1000 m to restart me.” This guilts people into constantly have the app running in the background all the time, which allows the company to gather GPS data and analyze your daily whereabouts without rewarding you. DO NOT download this app. Sell your GPS data to a company instead..Don'tpressGETVersion: 8.3
SICK TO MY STOMACH😤😤😤You make me SICK!!!!! I open this stupid dumb app every freaking day for 2 years and you know what I was able to get with all those steps, blood and tears? Air!! I get freaking air, I walk 20,000 steps in 3 days and what’s my prize? Air! And then they have the nerve to offer a premium account 😂😭😮💨🤣🤣🤣🤣I paid for it because it was the only way I could get more sweat could be eventually you just stop getting them when you reach a certain amount. 2 million Sweatcoins and nothing to show for it pathetic!!!! I open this app again today and I started exhibiting Covid-19 symptoms this is the worst app in the history of the human existence and the spiritual one. At first I enjoyed this app because despite practically having nothing of value in the store I enjoyed a few premium pandora accounts and tidal accounts that’s literally the best thing I have ever gotten. You need to shut this app down until you my able to go to a thrift store or whatever non-profit organization you go to get your free cheap absolutely useless and meaningless items. If I had to choose between my gf having a child while she’ has sweat coin on her phone And saving another persons life a person who doesn’t have sweat coin I would force my girl to have a abortion so she won’t have to live with the pain of this app..QueenbossgdgdjdjdVersion: 142.0
ScammersSweat coin will intice you with a crazy idea of turning daily steps into money they get sponsors to give all the real little products and offers and they gain from that too but when it comes to your actuall collection of sweat coins it’s only worth using after years of continuously getting steps too get your worth from the app but before you get anywhere near a high number of coins where you can actually get your times worth they will purposely make people accounts defective it will stop receiving steps even with everything done well and if you try to do anything about it they purposely have a horrible customer service so it becomes a continuous gain no loss cycle for them they got a crypto coin before even having a single person you can talk to as customer service they will do anything to make you stop using the app when you are getting higher and higher amounts of coins and all the winners and buyers for the big stuff probably fake too because even every time I’ve ever tried to get one of the cheaper items from the shop you can’t ever actually get them it just throws you of course there app is not too good to be true it’s just if it was true everyone would of been fit already - 4-5 years saving trying and walking for nothing thank you Sweatcoin.FlaotyVersion: 161.0
SKETCH AS FREAKEDIT: they will not let me delete my account with the same bogus reason they don’t let anyone rate the marketplace negatively, with a phony pop up to check my internet. that’s not just sketchy but low key illegal. plus, the whole crypto thing? yeah i’m glad im jumping ship. not hard feelings at first but do yourself a favor, go on a walk without your phone and enjoy not being in this hellhole. downloaded this way back, thinking i could maybe come back in ten years and be able to redeem a high prize. i don’t take my phone around with me a lot, so i wasn’t expecting much, and now I’m just gonna delete it no worries. the rewards are esoteric. no, i don’t need 10% off to some random health app. there are no actual things you get for free or close to free anymore. I thought I could do an auction later, but the thing is as everyone gets more coins, the bidding price goes up. there’s no way i can redeem anything if actual value! I don’t mind, and I’m not mad. you get what you pay for, and I paid nothing. I can’t expect to get free swag from a free app. However, I do not recommend paying for any subscription. The rewards, again, are useless to the vast majority of people and the auctions (the only things of value) are going to outpace you. Time to donate my measly 2k coins and peace out.Jazzafan:DVersion: 166.1.0
Why all the hype?I tried this app and honestly didn't see any value. You give full access to your location. You end up harassing all your friends to join so you get more "points" and all you get at the end of the day is barely a few pennies towards unachievable rewards. If you weigh in the positives and negatives, you'll notice you're selling ALL your personal info, including apple health data, your contacts and places you visit in return for a $1 at Amazon... Delete and forget..Boo0gerVersion: 4.2
Don’t botherLet’s say you got tempted by that check for $1000 or iPhone or tV, but it physically impossible!!!!! Let’s do the math, shall we?!
And here is a break down for you...
• to get those prizes you would have to collect 20,000 sweat coins! (FYI:1 coin is 1000 steps)
You are given 2 years to complete that!!!! Which is 24 month or 730 days.
• now.... you also get daily bonuses! In 730 days you would get 1701 bonus sweat coin! Nice! But... you would also have to pay monthly subscription! Which would come to 720 coins.
So in total you would have to make 19,000 sweat coins in 2 years! Or...26 coins a day!
First of all the maximum amount of coins based on this app you can make is 20!
So they are misleading but advertising false info,
But....I said “based on”....
It real life of this app it would precisely count third of your outdoor steps! It’s poorly designed, it got glitches, it doesn’t work unless you’ll swing your hand!
Don’t waste your time! I was testing it for a 5 month and it’s horrible! You get addicted to it, but frustrated as you see that it’s not counting your steps.
Yeasterday they did some update and it’s a complete disaster! I walked close to 7000 steps and got 1$.
Oh, it also kills your battery!

You guys are such a rip off. There’s never anything to claim for Canadians and other countries, so what’s the point? Not worth the effort.

The only suggestion offered by sweatcoin staff was to keep trying to contact the company directly. Never got a refund and never got my item. Very disappointed..CjekekeVersion: 125.0

Im in canada and there is zero offers for us here, this app seems to be a battery waster!
Not to mention do ridiculously stupid prizes they have, they had a 2/3 inch multi tool (one piece of aluminum it looked like basically a beer opener) they wanted 500 sweat coins, what a joke!
Been with them for months, got several hundred and cant even redeem anything cause its either ridiculously overpriced or there is nothing to get. Weak!
Whats worse now they advertise spam and quick money schemes!! Horrible

Stops/ not converting stepsI don’t really need this app for me to get into walking. It’s a frustrating app, if you ask me. You walk for half an hour and you just get a few converted steps.

This app is completely useless.
I saved up to about 75 swet coin and tried spending it on the paper wallet they released couple of days ago. I went through the process and it was very complicated. I added a paper wallet in my shopping cart and it automatically takes the points right then and there. Furthermore, you have to provide them (third party “paper wallet company”) your credit card info and all the rest. It will take legitimately $5 from your card for shipping and who knows how long it might take to get to Toronto.

After 1 month, unable to use the buy feature that is literally advertisedDon’t install this app if you think you are gonna actually be getting paid to walk, even the option to obtain gift cards with the sweatcoins you earn from walking removes itself after you have been a member for a month.
Defeats the whole purpose of this stupid app in the first place.
Greedy companies advertising themselves as a way to also make money when literally the only way to potentially make money now is using sweat coins for raffles like it’s some lottery, and the bigger joke is the prizes are worth literally nothing with a whopping 30k people on average entering each raffle.
Don’t waste your time, and if you do happen to waste your time, redeem the $5 gift card immediately as soon as you have enough so you can steal back from these pathetic developers.
Huge disappointment and no longer trust any app that promises “free money” besides Microsoft and bing points (which is sad because Microsoft sucks but at least they aren’t as greedy as these mobile rat companies).DylangershotsVersion: 202.0.0
