Sweatcoin is a mobile app currently available on ios and on early beta testing on Android.
->WHAT IS SWEATCOIN?
Sweatcoin is basically a digital currency, which is earned by being active while staying fit. The concept is simple, you need to download the app first and then you'll have to keep it running on your phone at literally all times. Now, while doing this when you walk or run outside, the app will track your steps and will then pay you in Sweatcoins(SWC).
->HOW MUCH CAN YOU EARN?
It depends on your outside activity. As an estimation, for every thousand steps you take, it'll earn you just under 1 SWC. As a basic member, you can earn up to 5 SWC per day. To earn more there are four other memberships available as an upgrade.
->WHAT CAN YOU GET AFTER ACCUMULATING SWEATCOINS?
After accumulating enough sweatcoins you can either upgrade to different higher subscription levels or choose to redeem the sweatcoins for various items like EBooks, Airline miles, Amazon credits, Music Downloads or Gift certificates to various retailers.
->DOES SWEATCOIN SUPPORTS DIRECT TRADE?
No, Sweatcoin currently doesn't have support for direct trade, which means users cannot convert their sweatcoins directly to cash or Bitcoin for the time being.
->HOW MUCH IS A SWEATCOIN EXACTLY WORTH?
There is no exact approximate regarding the market value of a sweatcoin as it is considered as an emerging currency which is why it currently has volatile rates of exchange which varies from one offer to another.
->ARE SWEATCOINS PURCHASABLE?
No, Sweatcoins are not purchasable and they can only be accumulated by a physical movement which is calculated from within the app.
->HOW ARE STEPS COUNTED?
Sweatcoin will count your steps with the help of your mobile's GPS. To ensure better conversion rates make sure that the app has complete access to your mobile's GPS and that its accuracy is set to high.
->ARE THERE ANY FLAWS?
Nothing is perfect and neither is sweatcoin. There are few limitations to the app which sees it counting steps only while you're running or walking NOT when you're riding or driving or for that case having a swim in the pool. It's an issue which the developers are trying to fix in the near future. Among other flaws, some users have reported it to be a quite a battery drainer.
->IS SWEATCOIN WORTH YOUR TIME?
It all depends on how you think about it. This is not an app which is ever going to make you rich, but it does pay you for having a walk around which obviously costs you nothing so why not? There is a lot of development regarding it which is why I believe Sweatcoin is worth it in the long run.
