3. Choose your fitness tracker

You can use any fitness tracker you have with you. Be it just a normal smart steps tracker (eg: Fitbit, Xiaomi Mi Bands), or smart fitness tracker (Eg: Apple Watch, Samsung Gear Watch), or HPB Issued trackers. So, it is NOT a must to use HPB issued-trackers.

List of fitness tracker which compatible:

– Any HPB issued fitness tracker (for complete list of HPB issued trackers, open the app, go to Apps Menu)

– Any Google Fit compatible tracker (if you are using Android)

– Any Apple HealthKit compatible tracker (if you are using iOS)

– Any Samsung SHealth compatible tracker (if you are using Samsung device)

– Actxa

– FitBit

– Your Phone (worst case :p)

If you are on budget and currently doesn’t have/use any fitness tracker with you, don’t worry. You can still use your phone as your fitness tracker – since most modern phones are equipped with accelerometer which can be used to track your steps – not as accurate as the real fitness tracker but it does the job.

To maximize your SURE-WIN rewards, do make sure you are not just using smart steps tracker, but smart fitness tracker – those with the capability to record your heart rate.

6. Take the action.

Start walking! As simple as that.

Just do your normal activities such as going to work, wash that dishes, do the chores. If doing your normal activities don’t get you enough steps, do extra exercises or switch to alternatives, such as take staircases for going up or down instead of taking escalator or lift or other way is if your home is just walking distance, do consider to walk back home and skip the bus.

7. Don’t forget to sync your steps

Before going to sleep, at the end of the day good if you can open the Healthy 365 app and sync it daily. In case if you are lazy to sync it each and every day or forgot to sync it in one of those days, you can sync it once a week but try to be not more than a week. Certain fitness tracker can only remember the past 7 days activities.

By right, just opening the app will sync your steps automatically from the fitness tracker. However in case you are not seeing your progress getting synced, here’s to sync the steps to Healthy 365 app manually.

Healthy 365 National Steps Challenge Season 4 – Sync the steps manually on Dashboard Menu

To sync the steps manually to Healthy 365 app do the following:

a. Open the Healthy 365 app.

b. Go to Dashboard Menu.

c. If you see ‘X’ number of kcal burnt, ‘X’ number of kcal consumed, slide the screen from right to left until you see the screen like shown above (see image above), showing ‘N’ number of steps with a big circle around it.

d. Tap on the green colored icon (fitness tracker icon) located on the top right of the screen (see image above) to start sync it manually.
