The Design of Influence: How to Craft Products that Move People

With so many fitness apps out there that seem to take an arm's length approach to counting steps and tacking on a leaderboard, I like how this differentiates itself by offering holistic health tips and incentivizing us with rewards I can actually relate to! That said, I'm not sure if this also integrates into my existing steps trackers like Fitbit or Jawbone, etc. Any plans for that @janewang? + @gillianim: this seems relevant to have on your radar based on your question yesterday about fitness apps.

@alirtariq One step ahead of you (no pun intended)! We already integrate with both Fitbit and Jawbone, as well as a bunch of others such as Misfit and Polar. We also connect to popular apps like Google Fit, Apple Health, Underarmour's "MapMyFitness" and Strava as well as many more :).

@alirtariq @janewang @gillianim Or if you don't have a wearable you can use your phone's accelerometer to track steps. Use Google Fit or Apple Health on your smartphone.

Very interesting concept, I've seen fitness conscious products but it's nice to see you integrate the employee health aspect in. Two questions: 1. What devices do you integrate with for tracking? (eg. miband or amazfit) 2. Do you allow joining together larger groups of users? (ie. compete against another group/company) All the best going forward!

@charliecfeng Hey Charlie, 1. We integrate with many popular apps and devices ( @Fitbit, @Jawbone, @Amazfit and mibands). We also give you credit from steps on other popular health apps ( @runkeeper, @strava, @mapmyfitness). You can connect to these by going to the side menu and click on "Connect Devices" 2. Yes, we can. There are teams available on OptimityX, so you can use the feedback button to let us know if you are part of a company or organization, and we will create a team for you. Your teams will then show up on the leaderboard, and "Teams" will take you to the inter-company/group competition! So far I see @NYU, @MAC, @WellCalm, and @Rachelotterway as teams in OptimityX. So message us to start your team any time!

It pays to be healthy for once. OptimityX is a pocket health coach that you can connect your phone or any wearable or popular health app and Optimity will automatically pull 6 months of your habit history and reward your healthy habits with points that you can convert into $25 reward cards.

@writerpollock @janejywang how would OptimityX compare to Evidation Health? Cool stuff!

@trentbigelow The 2 products are quite different, since Evidation is patient focused, and we are looking at the pre-patient population: i.e. 20-50 year olds who are inactive, but do not currently have any chronic conditions. You can read more about the proactive approach here http://blog.myoptimity.com/proac... and of course, keep the questions coming!

Donate to India's Covid Relief

This looks really cool. Two questions: 1. Does this work only in the US? Any plans on expanding to other countries if so. 2. Do businesses have to sign employees up or can individuals sign up too?

Looks cool! My boss is always complaining that the startup life doesn't leave enough time for exercise, and I tend to agree -- I'll ask him if we can get this set up for our team!

Great moves guys, proud of you, keep it up. I bet you make babies smile :) I appreciate you. Another one. Looking forward to your updates. I like your style. Of course I'm kidding. But seriously, I'm one of your early users (and still number one on your dashboard 😂) and I'm also a fitness geek. I'm following hints which your app provides and I feel myself much more alive. Great job guys, keep going.

<3 you guys. Feature suggestion: plane mode. When a device is put into Airplane Mode, the app serves up plane-friendly exercises / habits.
