Actifit is a steem blockchain based fitness app with tracks your daily activity, which can subsequently allow you to track your fitness. You also get rewarded in the form of upvotes upon reaching minimum "activity score" and can earn AFIT tokens for contributing.!
First and foremost let me say this, Actifit is a unique and one of a kind dApp on the blockchain. An excellent one, too. I wholeheartedly love and appreciate for what actifit is.
Actifit allows you to maintain and/or track your daily activity, and gives you incentives for basically moving and taking care of your health. By reaching the minimum goal (score of 5000) you become eligible for rewards in STEEM/SP/SBD and AFIT tokens or just AFIT tokens, if you would like to, by posting your "report cards". You can also earn by contributing to Acitifit by voting on other actifit report cards.
I love how light weight and basic the app the is. It makes the whole app super friendly.
You can view tracking history and tracking chart to keep an eye on your daily development.
The app also allows your to view your wallet in which you can check how many AFIT tokens you have earned so far and also see how did you earn them (posting/ voting).
One of the main things I loved is the real time activity tracker and Daily leaderboard. The numbers are a huge motivator to do better and better each time you look at them.
The settings have a collection of great options in which you can choose your preferred steem payout, choose if you want to track activity through phone or FITBIT, turn on a reminder to post( I need that), and mostly exciting is the option to donate rewards to a charity from a number of preset charities.
One things Actifit has done that really impressed me is supporting markdown. A lot of people really love formatting their posts and from what I saw it works pretty flawlessly. That's a huge thumbs up from me. You can also choose to add images to your report card if you could. The editor is my favorite!
About posting. It is a simple procedure of adding your username and posting key to connect. From there on you can choose the activity that you have been partaking in and you can choose multiple. I always just used "walking".
Actifit app allows you to track your measurements in height, weight, thighs, waist, body fat and chest. A must in any fitness related app.
I have to emphasize on how connected and supportive are the actifit discord members. There is practically no way to be left unanswered. If you need it, the officials are more than happy to have a personal chat with you and help you out with anything actifit related.
This is great "customer service", something that is absolutely crucial to hold the users and make it a better experience for them.
The website is a great place to learn about actifit and also deal with your account; from editing report cards to accessing your wallet to power up/down and claiming rewards.
Now as a human, I did find somethings I did not appreciate as much.
Let's talk about the interface. As functional it is, I would like to see the app with more flashy, appealing look and/or add some graphics, just to make it look more interesting. I think it would really elevate the user experience. I personally do not like the look, no matter how much I love the app.
Let's talk about posting. I could not, in any way, add images to my report. I tried 2 different mobile phones(android) and it did not help. The app would crash every time I tried to add an image and wold lose all what I wrote in the report.
Lets' talk about syncing. Fitbit syncing is a go-go. Although, I would like Actifit to be compatible with other smart watches and bracelets, too. Especially the Michael Kors Access, I really need to put that into some good use.
Let's talk about timing. I learned the hard way that you cannot post an activity report after 00:00. It is a marvelous feature, but I think some leniency is required.
Let's talk about improvements I would like to see. I would like to see a calorie calculator on the app. Nutrition is one of the key players in fitness and I think a calorie calculator would just take actifit to a higher ground of user experience.
I would also like to see a distance or location mapping feature; for the walking and cycling freaks, "interactive maps" and "distance covered" are favorite tools.
Conclusion
I am, 100%, in love with actifit. I love the app and everything it stands for. I love the idea of integrating the blockchain, the rewards and fitness, all in one.
I love how caring the officials in the discord group are, and the personal catering they provide is unparalleled.
Actifit is very addicting, in the good way. A light app with so much to appreciate. Thank you
I really want to give Acitifit 5 stars, but I will not.
5 stars would indicate that Actifit has reached it's peak and should be left the way it is.
I am going to give it 4.9 stars. The .1 is for all the possibilities and endless potential actifit has yet to discover.
