Track your steps
Compete with friends
Be more active together

StepUp makes it dead simple to host fun & engaging step challenges for FREE!
You can add friends individually on StepUp or create a “group” to easily add people with a single group invite link.
StepUp is used at work (Amazon, BMW, Google), schools (Yale, Stanford), gyms etc all over the world.

How does a group work?
You can create a group on StepUp & send participants an invite link over email/text.
Participants can download StepUp & join the group via the invite link.
Participants will see a group leaderboard - for daily, weekly & monthly steps.
We support 1500 users in a group, and you can create as many groups as needed.

How much does it cost?
We want StepUp to be accessible to everyone, so it's completely FREE.
We support our work & mission via ads and donations from happy customers - buy us a coffee? :)

Running a step challenge
All group members will see daily, weekly and monthly leaderboards and winners in the app.
You can announce monthly winners, or weekly winners every Sunday/Monday afternoon based on the last 7 days average.

Exporting group reports
Group admins can export reports for any date range from Settings > Manage Groups > Export Group Report.
Reports include total steps and distance covered by the entire group, daily avg steps per member for the group and detailed step leaderboards.
Admins can swipe (iOS) or long press (Android) on any group member to make them an admin.

Step challenge for a specific date range
We show daily, weekly and monthly leaderboards in the app. You can't see a leaderboard for custom date ranges in the app (yet), but there is a simple work around - the group admin can export a report for the desired date range and declare the winner over text/email.
Groups have hosted step challenges for date ranges from days (weekends), weeks, months, to a whole year.
Make sure to invite participants a few days before the start date, and clearly state the duration of the challenge up front.
No matter when folks sign up, you can export leaderboard data for the dates of your challenge.

Team vs team step challenge
Though we don't show group vs group leaderboards directly in the app, we have a simple work around.
Create multiple groups (one for each team), and run group vs group challenges based on total steps (or avg steps per member) by exporting group reports for each group, and sharing the winner/stats over email/text.
Reports include total steps and distance covered by the entire group, daily avg steps per member for the group and detailed leaderboards.
