If you don't know anything about Actifit, then you're in the right place. When I started researching the Actifit DApp 2 weeks ago, I kept a lot of notes and wrote a lot of my initial questions.
I found that it was kind of hard to find the answers to all of my questions as a complete beginner in one place, so now I'm writing this to you as someone who's been actively learning and using
Getting Started With Actifit
First things first, how do you get started with Actifit?
Download the app onto your mobile device. It's available on both Android and IOS (I'm using IOS). To get the latest version of the app, just head to one of the latest posts on the

What I love about the Actifit app is the simplicity of it. There really isn't any sort of setup that you have to go through.
Once you have the app, just open it up and you'll see that it's tracking your steps, labeled "Total Activity Today".
At the end of the day, when you have all of your steps in for the day, just hit the button titled "Post to Steemit"
When you hit that button, it will ask you for your Steem username and your PRIVATE POSTING KEY.
There's no need for the app to have your active key because you aren't doing any transactions with it. You're simply using it to create a post onto the Steem blockchain. Therefore, do not enter your Active key. Private Posting Key ONLY!
Even if this key were to get compromised, your funds on the Steem blockchain would be inaccessible to the person with your private posting key. But again, I wouldn't worry about it. That's the beauty of having multi-level keys on the Steem blockchain!
The app will automatically fill in your steps for the day (Activity Count) and then it's up to you if you want to create a new post title and enter in your measurements. After that, just add some post tags and then some post content and then click "Post to Steemit".
After that, you can open the post on your favorite Steem interfaces (though some interfaces have been known to have a few issues. I choose to use the Steemit interface to edit my posts) and you can edit your post additionally from there. I like to change the thumbnail and sometimes add some additional info about the day like weight training and what I ate, etc.
Keep in mind that post content is a factor to your daily payout from the
Speaking of the rewards system...
Maximizing Your Rewards From !
This is something that I had to do some searching for and it took me a few days to realize a lot of this stuff. These are a few tips to help you maximize your effectiveness on the Actifit platform and earn the most possible AFIT tokens and
1. Delegate to :
Delegating to the
"Since many ask, here we describe again an easy way to calculate your AFIT tokens for a full day of delegations: (Your Delegated SP) * 100,000 AFIT MAX / (Actifit Account Delegated SP - without account own SP and any delegators who opted out). So for instance if you had delegated 100 SP, your daily earnings would be around: 100 * 100,000 / 220,000 = 45.45 AFITs" (Source:
To give you a real world example: I'm delegating 500SP to
Note: In addition to earning more AFIT for your delegation each day, you will also earn more
Delegations have some sort of weighting in your overall user score, which impacts how much the
2. Daily Posts
The next method for earning AFIT tokens is to make 1 post every day through the Actifit app. There are a lot of factors that go into measuring how much you will earn for each daily post, but here are the key things that I think you should focus on to maximize your daily earnings through your posts:
- Quality of your post (try to make your post unique by adding a few extra notes and charts and images and thumbnails. Creativity goes a long way)
- Number of steps --> this is something that I was unaware of at first, but quickly learned. The minimum steps to get rewarded for a day is 5,000 steps. Earning closer to the 10,000 step level is what will allow you to earn even more AFIT on your posts. So if you're looking to maximize your daily rewards, aim for 10,000 steps per day!
- Accumulated AFIT tokens --> again, I'm unsure of the exact calculation, but accumulating AFIT tokens in your wallet has an impact on your user score which has an impact on your daily payouts on posts
- Delegation amount --> unsure of the exact calculation, but the amount you delegate to
3. Write about Actifit
Quality posts about the Actifit itself will also result in rewards. I wrote a post a while back and accidentally stumbled upon this. You can see the

Hopefully this post can serve as a good introduction to the Actifit community and how you can do your best to earn and have fun with the DApp!
Actifit is one of the best DApps available on the Steem blockchain today (in my opinion). It's functioning, practical and it seamlessly integrates into your life.
You don't exactly have to go far out of your way to earn AFIT tokens, you can earn them by simply being active each day and posting your report card to Steemit! This is just how a DApp should work: integrate directly into your regular lifestyle without a huge barrier to entry!
