Frequently asked questions

Why has my activity not appeared?

Check that it is a Walk or Run, that it was GPS-recorded rather than entered manually, and that its visibility is not "Only You".

Do manually entered activities count?

No. The activity must include a GPS track recorded by the app.

Can I disconnect my account?

Yes, at any time from the "My account" page. Your data and activities are permanently deleted.
