Compete with your friends
Stay motivated with a little healthy competition. You can challenge a friend to a competition in which you earn points based on the percentage of your Activity Rings that you close. You get a point for every percent you add to your rings each day. The competition lasts 7 days and you can earn up to 600 points a day for a maximum of 4,200 points for the week. The person with the most points at the end of the competition wins. During a competition, alerts tell you if you’re ahead of or falling behind your competitor—along with the score.
