COMPONENT

actifit fitness tracker is an android app that serves to track the movement of a person based on the sensors available in smartphone users. this application will give rewards to users who achieve the highest movement value by sending a report to steemit, where the post will be voted by account related to actifit fitness tracker.

the more the number of movements performed by a user will be more likely to get voten from the main account of the fitness tracker.

PROPOSAL

after a while I use this application I feel there are some features that should be added to the application so that users can be more comfortable and more attractive to use because this application not only serves to get rewards but also to track the amount of movement of a person.

below are some ideas that I want to share.
1 step goals

This feature can help users to set the number of moves that they want to go. e.g if the user wants the number of movements to be in the number 2,000 or 3,000 users can set the number that they want to go to in the settings section. and the number of moves that have been taken along with the number of moves that are targeted can be displayed on the home screen of this application.

2 distance

This feature is a feature that will show the amount of distance that a user has traveled. e.g if the user has traveled around 500 m the distance will be displayed on the front page of the application. the distance can be calculated from the number of movements of a person. eg if it is assumed that the 5 steps that have been passed can be calculated in a matter of meters ranging from 1 or 1.5 meters.

3 time

time is a feature that serves to determine how long a user has to move and exercise. I suggest this time feature because this application functions in addition to giving rewards to users based on the number of moves that have been done, this application also serves to track sports activities by a user.

BENEFITS

steps goals

this feature will be very useful for users who want to reach the mileage that a user wants to reach. with this feature the user can reach the target number of the movement that he wants to target. when the user reaches the number that has been set, the user can take a break or stop the movement. This feature can also help the user to move in a sports field as he wants. suppose running 1000 steps, jogging 1000 steps, cycling 1000 steps.

distance

This feature will be very useful for runners or cyclists who like cycling or running long distances. with this feature the user can find out how far he has run has been cycling or running. the user can take a short break or stop when the distance of the running or cycling target has reached or exceeded.

time

This feature is a feature that will show how long someone has exercised in minutes or hours. this feature will greatly help users who cannot exercise for a long time with this feature the user can stop when the user has reached the desired time limit.

Hi @muhammadarif, thank you for your contribution.

I recommend you explain your ideas better, with more details. Your suggestions seem quite common and the benefits are not very detailed.

Step goals: How should this be implemented? You said that can be displayed on the home screen of this application., but I do not see many benefits on that, since I need to check the screen to check my progress, I can do that without your suggestion. Also the app targets people who use indoor training and other activities where the moves are not steps.
For example, you could say that an alert or notification will show up when the milestone is reached.

Distance: Same as step goals, the app targets people who use indoor training and other activities where the moves are not steps, therefore, the distance is not necessary.

Time: may be a good feature.

Note that your ideas are really common in similar apps and may be already in the roadmap of the App, since they announced that will capture and track much more useful data (read the announcement here).

Also, I recommend you to check the overall presentation of your post before submitting the contribution, since I saw some errors (like punctuation, typos, capital letter). This links may help you: Suggestions Guide - Make your posts look great
