Good evening I have been looking into this app tonight. Very excited to join in tomorrow on a brisk walk and see what rewards I can get. I wish I knew about this during lockdown would of been amazing but good to have. Any tips or advice on how it all works and staying connected with members for motivation?

Good morning K17x welcome to the community and well done for downloading the App and joining us.

I only downloaded the app a couple of months ago and really like its simplicity and ease of use so here's a link about the App as it answers your questions, please see:

nhs.uk/oneyou/active10/home/

Basically you go for a walk carrying your phone and as soon as you click the app it tells you how many minutes walking time you've achieved and how any are at a brisk walking speed here's an screenshot of how this is displayed.

My advice is to enjoy your walks and find your own pace using the app to encourage you as it is very easy to use.

So good luck and do let us know how you get on on your first walk as you've literally taken the first step.

Jerry. 😊
