Thank you developers of ParticipACTION!

I’ve been using this app consistently to track my walks to and from my local community centre since around July. Today I received a notification on my phone from the app that I had just won a $10 Amazon gift-card (I got the code after answering a simple math question, yay)! Though this is just one of the smaller prizes available, this win really made my day and truly further incentives me to continue getting outside, showing up at the gym, and improving my physical and mental health. Through this review, I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude to the developers of this app for offering this service to Canadians. I realize that this app doesn’t have the most positive reviews at the moment so I’m hoping that those who read mine can see that YES you can absolutely win prizes from it (to address the concerns of some naysayers who complained the app doesn’t reveal who won each prize and suspected no prizes were actually given out; to be fair, I think that them not announcing who wins is actually better for everyone’s privacy anyway) and that it CAN have a positive impact on your life, as it does in mine. I hope that the developers know how much the app means to a lot of people out there and that many of us are really looking forward to the updates planned for the near future (my girlfriend and I have been looking for a suitable app to replace Carrot ever since they closed their doors earlier this year; we can’t wait for similar-style step challenges to be added to ParticipACTION! ☺️). So a huge thank you to the developers of this app, you’re doing great!

No easy access to weekly or monthly winners list

No easy access to weekly or monthly winners list - makes me question if anyone wins. Therefore deleting the app until there is transparency regarding winners.

Syncing issues

Connected to Apple health but doesn’t sync/update properly. Really inconsistent.

Do not purchase the app

I rate this app zero stars if I could. Waste of money and not user friendly. Tried to submit a password to signup but zero success. The program should encourage participation instead of making it difficult.
AVFoundation
The AV Foundation framework provides an Objective-C interface for managing and playing audio-visual media in iOS and OS X applications.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Core Location Framework
The Core Location framework lets you determine the current location or heading associated with a device. The framework uses the available hardware to determine the user’s position and heading. You use the classes and protocols in this framework to configure and schedule the delivery of location and heading events. You can also use it to define geographic regions and monitor when the user crosses the boundaries of those regions. In iOS, you can also define a region around a Bluetooth beacon.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
MobileCoreServices
Use uniform type identifier (UTI) information to create and manipulate data that can be exchanged between your app and other apps and services using MobileCoreServices.
Quartz Core Framework
Allow users to browse, edit, and save images, using slideshows and Core Image filters.The Quartz Composer API supports processing and rendering graphical data and allows developers to create custom patches for the Quartz Composer developer tool. ImageKit provides user interface support for browsing, editing, and saving images, showing slideshows, and browsing and previewing Core Image filters. PDFKit is a technology that allows applications to display and manipulate PDF documents.
System Configuration F...
This collection of documents describes the programming interfaces of the System Configuration framework. The System Configuration framework provides functions that determine the reachability of target hosts in both a synchronous and an asynchronous manner. It also provides error detection facilities.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
