Why an App? After surveying 6000 Mile-A-Day participants last year, we learned that people overwhelmingly thought that having an app would improve the Mile-A-Day challenge experience. Because of this feedback, we spent the last 8 months building a mobile application, which we debuted to the public last month during our 30 Miles, 30 Days Challenge.
What Phones Are Supported? The mobile Mile-A-Day app is available for IOS (Apple) and Google (Android) phones.
How Can I Track My Miles? You can track your daily miles by either allowing the app to connect with the Health App (IOS) or Google Fit App (Android) on your phone, or you can manually enter in your miles. Watch a video to learn how to track your miles.
What Does the App Do? The app allows you to see your mileage for each session, for the day, and for the total challenge in real time. It also allows you to see where you rank on the leaderboard. If you are on a team, you can also see where your team ranks on the leaderboard.
