ActiveFit for Android

Quick overview

ActiveFit is a no-cost Android application created by Advanta Health Solutions Inc. It helps participants in supported health plans monitor their physical activity and qualify for rewards. The app records on-foot movement and gym attendance using location services and beacon detection, and it connects with other fitness platforms to consolidate activity data.

Primary features and rewards

• Syncs step counts and walking sessions through SmartWalking, with optional Fitbit and Google Fit integration for seamless tracking.
• Automatically logs visits to participating fitness centers by using geofencing and beacon signals.
• Tracks progress toward monthly incentives tied to step and gym-visit targets.
• Lets users suggest additional gyms be added to the database if a nearby facility is missing.

Managing gym visits and locations

• Use the interactive map to view and manage listed gym locations.
• Apply a single gym activity across several facilities when appropriate.
• Self-report missed check-ins if a valid visit wasn’t captured automatically.
• Access a network of more than 30,000 participating fitness centers across the country.

Availability, data sharing, and variability

ActiveFit is distributed only to members of sponsored health plans, so access is limited to eligible participants. Features and rewards may differ by plan. The app can share activity details with Google Fit (and other linked services), so check your plan’s privacy settings and permissions before connecting accounts.

Practical considerations

Continuous use of GPS in the background may significantly reduce battery life, so enable location services only when needed or use power-saving settings. The app is Android-only and best used in combination with compatible wearables or fitness apps for the most accurate step tracking.

How to begin

If your health plan supports ActiveFit, install it from the Google Play Store or follow the enrollment instructions provided by your plan administrator. After installing, review permissions, connect any preferred fitness services, and set up your goals to start earning incentives.
