How is activity and workouts valued?

Dina uppgifter

Välj lag

All kinds of workouts are valued equally, regardless of the type of activity. That is, a person who walks for 30 minutes and a person who runs for 30 minutes both gathers 30 points. The thought is that all contestants compete on the same terms.

Additionally, we want to promote the everyday activities, such as choosing the stairs in favor of the elevator. Therefore, Actimate registers all kinds of small activities during the day.

Google Fitness is supposed to register riding a bike automatically. If this is not the case, contact us at support@actimate.se and we will assist you.

Apple Health does not register riding a bike automatically, however it does sometimes register riding a bike as walking.

If you want to register riding a bike we would recommend the use of a third party app, for example Strava or Runkeeper. Check out the section “Smart accessories and exercising apps”. Another option is to register the activity manually according to the instructions above.

Is it possible to manually register a workout?

It may take a few hours for your score to appear in the Actimate-app. Sit tight for a while and they will soon show up. You can also try to sync manually in the Actimate-app’s settings on the top left corner.
