StepBet: Walk, Get Active, Win Reviews

Great idea, horrible app.

You know, I love the concept of this. I love actual stepbets and I’ve started walking a lot more because of them but this app is trash. I wish they had a website for stepbet because I would never use this app again. It is constantly freezing so you have to force close it and whenever I open it after it hasn’t been force closed I get a blank white screen. The developers have been working on a huge makeover of the app and it’s like once they started doing that the just ignored the app functionality. I thought maybe once the new update came out it would work better but it’s even worse now. If I didn’t have money in bets I would delete this app and never look back.

Great motivation, but...

Stepbet is a great motivation to get moving. When I really get into a funk with my workout routine, the possibility of losing $40 gets me off the couch more than anything. However, I’ve had Stepbet for a little over a year and my step goals have gotten out of control. I live in NYC, so naturally I’m walking a lot without trying. I understand that the goals are calculated based on your step history, but it seems unfair that other people in the game will have a stretch goal of 9,000, while my stretch goal is 19,000, and we’re playing for the same reward. It takes me twice the amount of time to get those steps, and really hinders my opportunity to add strength training or more varied workouts into my routine. So while I think Stepbet is great, I’m going to have to stop using it until the system is changed. It would be great if there were set goals, such as everyone having to get 10k steps a day, or 15k steps a day like Spryfit. It would be more sustainable in the long term, because I know I’m not the only one struggling with their ever-increasing step goals. There are only so many hours in a day.

Love stepbet

Been a member for a year already and still enjoy it! The customer service is great and they really try to listen to players whether it’s about ideas for improving the app or creating new game styles! The Facebook group is great and there’s polls for new games and lots of support! I love having the extra motivation to move :)

App Won’t Complete Setup

The app will not complete the “creating goals” step.

I had the old version of this app and loved it. Now I’ve had to uninstall and reinstall it at least 3 times and still half the time (or more) it won’t load. Really upset. I used to love this app.

Unreasonable Steps

Uggggghhhggggggghggh

I downloaded the app and synced my Fitbit no problems. Then I get to my calculated goals and it sets it for me between 13-16k for my first ever goal. Now I’m a pretty active person and I regularly increase my Fitbit goal in small increments. I just didn’t expect to see numbers so high at first and I know that I won’t be able to accomplish it. Not gonna waste $40 on something that doesn’t fit into my life. I think StepBet should let you decide your own personal goals with some sort of minimum threshold.

Like the update but...

Since the update the app no longer shows pictures that users’ post. Please fix it. It’s a nice little community and we like to share our walking views with each other. Thanks.
