Your steps are counted even without an internet connection or even if the WeWard app is closed!
Your phone records your movements using its built-in sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope, pedometer, etc.).
The data is retrieved by WeWard from:
Apple Health on iPhone
Google Fit on Android
🔄 When are my steps synced in the app?
Your steps will be visible when you open WeWard with an internet connection (Wi-Fi or mobile data).
You can then validate them and turn them into Wards.
⚠️ Important to know
- Steps are not counted if your phone is not moving
For example: if you are walking on a treadmill but your phone is on a table, it will not detect your steps.
Keep it on you, in your pocket, in your hand, or in an armband! - Some activities such as cycling, weight training, or repetitive movements are not always recognized as walking, and the activity may not be measured correctly
- Remember to turn on reminder notifications!
