Why does the graph on the app only go to 40 mins. I often walk more than 40 mins. Also How can I see yesterday's information?

Active 10 is really about building your speed up to 30min, so all the timers are built around that. There are some really good walking apps for you phone that will log time, distance, calories and keep a monthly/yearly record for you. Before I got my garmin I used the runtastic pedometer app which was free and really good.

Thanks for your quick response. I liked this app because it really encouraged me to walk briskly as it measures that. I have the Apple one but it only measures miles not speed. I think maybe it’s for people less able than me, though I am 57 with dodgy knees and hips! I will use a combination of both (this for brisk and the other for distance ). Just one more question; can I see yesterday’s stats? I forgot to look before bed. Cheers x

I’m sorry we have been asked buyPublic Health for England to motivate and support with walking but we have no input in the app at all. As far as I remember the app shows an overall total for the week but has no individual access to the daily totals after they have rolled over.

Hi Marthaclemat - I found that too. I use a fitbit-one and the fitbit app on my phone shows active minutes and height climbed which I love (converts hills into flights of stairs). I also use MapMyWalk for when I go out on a 'proper' walk. This gives current and average speed so I can check that I'm going at over 3 mph - and as it shows the map location which has often helped when I've got a bit lost 😬😬

Hi, yes the active 10 app is good for seeing whether your walking is brisk or not - it is good to use alongside other apps & devices if you are very active. I use it in conjunction with my fitbit which records other exercise too - I average about 10-12 hours of exercise a week but still.find the active 10 app useful My graph goes up to 90 mins, tho sometimes it takes a clue of days for past data to show up.

The graph in the version that is being rolled out goes above 40 minutes. The Android version is already implementing it. Not sure about the iPhone version
