Unable to redeem gift cards.
I got this app a while back.
I had hoped to make a little cash on the side while getting my steps in. Instead, this app makes you get entries for giveaways, which most likely no one even wins. I hope that they fix this bug if it is one or that they put the “Buy” button back on the rewards page. so people can purchase gift cards if they want them.

superdraw scam
I haven’t received the prize for the win on June 14, 2026. They said in 7 days the prize will be sent to my paypal and today is June 24 and I still haven’t received it. I also believe the review that I wrote the other day is erased. Should Icontact a lawyer?
Paid for Premium, But Still Experiencing Excessive Ads!!
I paid for the Premium plan, expecting a better user experience. However, I was very disappointed to find that the Premium plan does not include an ad-free experience.
The ads are extremely disruptive, and each one lasts around 90-120 seconds, which significantly affects my ability to enjoy using the app. If users are paying for a Premium subscription, I believe it should either remove ads completely or clearly explain this limitation before purchase.
I would appreciate it if you could review this issue and provide a solution, such as removing the ads from my Premium plan!

1/1/26-CURRENT DAY. IF I COULD; 0 out of 5 STARS. But I would prefer a negative star rating
DAILY BOOST IS SCREWING ME OVER. Started the first daily boost today 5/12/26 and it went through the twenty minutes, showed that I had 2,500+ steps and it competent restarted, showing that I never started the first routine. Please fix these issues right now. Please fix the DAILY BOOST ACTIVITY. I AM SICK AND TIRED OF NOT RECEIVING THE AMOUNT I’VE EARNED.
Deceptive tactics
I’ve been using Sweatcoin for 6+years , paying for the highest tier with the expectation that since I walk a lot already I could actually save up enough Sweatcoins to get something of value, only for sweatcoing to turn their backs and completely change how the platform is run by forcing you to dilute your Sweatcoin in half by turning it into crypt (which I never use) if that wasn’t bad already, I still decided to put time and money into the app only to have the value of sweatcoing to get heavily diluted (which is understandable) however the part that’s really frustrating is the fact that I can’t even spend my sweatcoin, due to the timing of their auctions , the only way I would be able to participate would be if I decided to wake up at three in the morning! Absolutely ridiculous, and hope the company can make it right by offering other time slots for their auctions. It’s just sad to see that the company does value loyal customers

Use to be better
Now everything is a pathetic money grab with ads and forcing you to use coins to even see the possible rewards. It’s pretty sad
Ok
