LifeCoin - Rewards for Walking Reviews

by Muertesixsix6

Downloaded LifeCoin made my account everything was going gravy and out of nowhere I went on LifeCoin to verify steps didn’t know it do it in its own new to LifeCoin but I was at the begging again where I was a new user and after multiple attempts to get my account it just won’t work tells me my number isn’t a valid number which is weird cuz I used the same number to make my account and emailed support but all I got was try making a new account with email but how em I supposed to try that if it only gives you the option to enter a mobile phone number ?? Was already halfway to getting one of the only couple prizes left on LifeCoin since everything. Is out of stock. Maybe here they’ll see me again and actually attempt to help me gain my account again or specifically tell me how I enter email instead of phone number

When I downloaded LifeCoin I was very excited about it but I am on immunosuppressive medications and I’m not supposed to spend a lot of time outside esp now I can’t go outside at all so what’s the point of even keeping it? I have $150 on LifeCoin and there’s nothing I can redeem it for. I didn’t realize it was an outside only app until after downloading it and even for a few weeks because before they did an update it was counting occasional indoor steps. I emailed them about this issue and never received any response not even an automated response. Also since the update when I walk outside it doesn't count all my steps even though I have clicked always for the location which I do for no other app. They don’t even let you use LifeCoin if the location isn’t set to always. Think it’s discriminatory, I would love to be walking outside but I can’t.

I’ve had issues with LifeCoin since day one, why I think they fix it is beyond me. I’ve had issues with refreshing steps and what steps actually get accounted for. It would take about 3.5 years to even get one of the cheaper prizes if your are paying for LifeCoin and twice as long if not. Paying for LifeCoin is a mistake, do not waste your money. Understandable they have more expensive product as prizes (I.e. AirPods, iPhoneX, $60 Netflix gift card, etc.) but you’re only allowed up to 10 points a day depending on how much money you want to pay for LifeCoin(only 5 points per day if not paying monthly). No updates to LifeCoin in 10 months, so obviously the creators have given up on fixing it and only created LifeCoin for your monthly payments to them. They’re are plenty of other apps that work MUCH better then this one!

The idea of LifeCoin is great, I love it.. but something is wrong with it. LifeCoin does not track steps. I walk/run 10 miles a day OUTSIDE, and for some reason it still will not configure on LifeCoin . It has worked only once in the last 20 days. The only way for you to earn points then is if you are watching their daily ad to receive 1 credit... If you email support, you will get the most pathetic auto response, and then if you are actually able to get through to someone about the issue of your steps not tracking their response is basically too bad. Rewards have not updated in quite some time, everything is out of stock. Again, love the idea of LifeCoin, but it’s not worth it. Don’t bother downloading it and investing your time in it.

So verified steps is what steps actually counts towards what you earn. It says that steps inside your house don’t count which I guess is a good thing. It should be removed though. I go on a run every morning and afternoon and at the end of the day I should have at least 5,000 steps. It’s only giving me 3,000 because of this stupid verified step thing. I have sweatcoin and it’s giving me 8000 steps average after both my runs not counting all the steps I do in and around my house. So y’all need to remove the dumb thing to where it only counts certain steps. Until then I don’t think the apps worth having if it’s just going to cheat me out of my steps. It’s like I’m working for nothing.

I have contacted this app a couple times now. My steps are not being converted. For example, 5,000 steps just remain as unverified steps after I hit verify now. It just stays stuck at the number and none of the steps gets converted. Normally it’s suppose to (worked fine the first day) convert some of the steps so that after you hit “verify now” the unverified steps should be 0 and some it goes to “verified steps.” My friend is also having this problem and she decided to stop using LifeCoin . Plus, it uses so much battery! I have never seen any app drain your battery and my friend also experienced the same thing, where when you are being super active, it drains 20% in ONE minute. This is not an exaggeration! I can deal with the power drain, but please fix the unverified steps issue (and yes I already re-downloaded LifeCoin ...twice)

UPDATE: this app has contacted me and gave a generic response of how to fix the problem. The conversation went back and forth (in emails) within an hour explaining the problem (similar to above). As soon as I said that I already tried these quick fixes, they haven’t contacted me since.

So only outside steps count. And it’s hard to say what outside means, because it doesn’t count steps in the back yard half the time. It doesn’t count steps for the first half of my walk sometimes. And then, it takes off 5% of your steps as a “commission fee.” What is that? The prices of everything are sooo expensive. The cheapest item is 1000 coins. Even by earning the max of 6 coins a day, it will still take at least 166 days just to get that. And even then, the item is out of stock. Pretty sure LifeCoin was designed just for them to make some money off of ads, and anyone that’s dumb enough to buy the premium version.

by Wilkeaustin

The concept of LifeCoin of course is great, but there is one major major flaw that makes it not worth while. I’ve had LifeCoin for I believe 2 months now and I’ve acquired about 205 “LifeCoins” the problem is that even the cheapest of items on LifeCoin is still 1250 points. Do the math. Even if you bought the “premium” user package for $3.33 a month, walked the maximum amount possible, and acquired the maximum amount of coins you can get per day/month (10 per day, 300, month) it would STILL take you at least 4 MONTHS to get the smallest shop item which is a $25 gift card to AMC movie theatres. To me that amount of dedication versus the award you actually get just isn’t worth it.

LifeCoin is cool for someone who tends to go for at least one-hour long walk a day it’s pretty cool.
The issue I have is the actual math behind it. Any gift card is $50 dollars and costs 2500 points. You can also get stuff like various Apple products, a Fitbit, wireless beats headphones, and even a scale. Those all vary in how many points it costs though.
So each point is 1,000 steps. So a gift card is 2,500,000 steps.
I take about 10,000 daily, higher than the average American. So I should be able to get a gift card of my choice in 250 days. But wait, this also has a limit of how many points you can withdraw in a day. Since I don’t have a membership that means it’d take 500 days, over a year for one card. Maybe I wanna shorten that down, get myself that $40 membership for a full year free and I can take out those ten points every day and providing I never miss any day, get hurt in any way that impairs my movements, forget to withdraw, experience no technical issues, I get my $50 gift card that cost $40.
Considering what other reviews say about LifeCoin not properly validating steps, drawing battery in minutes, and having bad customer support I’d say pass on LifeCoin.

I enjoy using LifeCoin and the incentive to earn coins to earn prizes. accumulates quickly & perk daily offering to watch 30s add and get 1.00 this app. It has made me want a wearable watch to maximize my steps especially at work when I may not have phone all the time to count steps. It says outdoor steps only and verifies / not sure if that has been perfected but I think exercise can be done through steps indoor & outdoor. They do lack in prize selection they haven't changed much if any since joining a few months ago. Prizes offered are great but the coins needed is set way above a reasonable amt. There needs to be prizes at varying coins.

There’s a couple reasons for the 3 star rating. Firstly it takes about a year to earn your rewards sometimes even longer. Secondly you can only earn 5 points a day. I’m sure the reason is to prevent people from cheating the system or to prevent to many people redeeming at the same time. They do have a program where it’s 39$ a year I believe. It allows you to earn 10 points a day instead of 5. Down side is your make a 10-30$ profit a year. Could be better if instead of the daily extra point they create a unlimited videos tab for 2-4 points a video. Then your make ad revenue to support LifeCoin and more people would try it out. I’ll let you know what I get on my first cashout...

I love LifeCoin! I’m a photographer and walk everywhere because I don’t drive. I’ve been using LifeCoin for about a month now and My total steps are 22K. There are some suggestions I have though, number 1, I noticed you guys don’t do PayPal which I think you should give people the option to cash out with PayPal. Number 2, I’m also a big gamer in spare time and would love to see Nintendo Eshop cards in the redeem rewards, and number 3, it takes ALOT of walking points/money to redeem for rewards plus I think you guys could add some new rewards. Other than that LifeCoin is by far my favorite app, helps me stay in shape and gives me a reason to go out and to take photos and earn points at the same time it’s a win win for me.

by JanieSanto

I really, really enjoy this app! At first, I did compare it to SweatCoin and it actually has very slight differences, but basically works the same. I just wish LifeCoin didn’t cheat you out of your steps so much.
As for a reward that I think should be offered is Ipsy Glam bag because I and other females might love to get it as a reward. Also, what would be awesome is if it could link up with PayPal, so the person using LifeCoin can at least have SOME cash flow to where they need it.
Lastly, I wonder if my Fitbit could help me count my steps to LifeCoin because I obviously can’t walk around work with my phone in my back pocket.
Hope you consider this much written feedback! Thanks!

by AngeHay

I’m not entirely sure what may be wrong the last 3 days but I can’t verify any of my steps which all qualified for my $5 a day. It also won’t allow me to send any information for feedback or tech support. I’m sure the issue will be resolved soon. However, prior to this issue the last few days I have highly enjoyed LifeCoin. It’s super easy to use and up until now was keeping better track then me on my daily steps.

by MMommy03

I have thoroughly enjoyed LifeCoin. Like the title suggests it is very clear and simple. I personally do not like unnecessary bells and whistles to get in the way of my goals. I’m sure if you like excitement the options are here. I choose not to engage them. I am finding success with clear and simple choices. There has been no pressure, no annoying requests to do otherwise and I appreciate that. I am walking more and making small strides to gain extra steps. It is so much easier to track steps here then with a pedometer. I always have my phone with me anyway. There is nothing to reset daily. I have had countless pedometers fall off and disappear forever. Having LifeCoin on my phone ensures that is not going to happen. Being paid/rewarded for walking is just an extra perk. I’m so grateful for LifeCoin.

by SadStar27

So at first I was think that I could walk some each day and it can get me point than lately I realized how LifeCoin purposed is to help people lose weight but than I start each day gaining weight which was awful but LifeCoin let you see step how much you walk each day I can keep count on how much I walk and make a time for a 15 -30 minute walk each day or more I will be doing this everyday for a month and try to not each high calorie food WISH ME LUCK

Have had LifeCoin for two years with the help of my wife got up enough coins to get a $50 gift card and conveniently they’re all out of stock for the last seven months nobody updates the website seems like every time you get enough points for something it just conveniently gets out of stock contacted customer service nobody will answer back scam scam scam scam I’d give it zero stars if you gave me the option to. And if this is customer service please contact me back because I’ve been trying to contact you for three months

this app has earned my compliments for its unique and sleek interface and easy step tracking. LifeCoin makes it fun to walk and exercise every day which is really important for our health. On the contrary, some things that can be improved include the maximum number of tokens you can get per day. Not only that, but I realized that the prices for each of the rewards are set very high. It would take years to get one prize, so please lower your prices- it doesn’t matter how much, but just as long as the prices are not that expensive! Overall, LifeCoin is phenomenal and deserves high recognition and praise. Great job, Azumio!

I downloaded this app I’m going to say about 2 or three years ago, was very excited about it. However I forget I have it a lot and occasionally check to see how much I’ve made. Every single time I check LifeCoin everything is sold out and I can buy nothing. I come back and check again and it’s the same problem. So I’ve made all of this money and have nothing to buy for it. There’s nothing to even be motivated about to buy because EVERYTHING on LifeCoin is “sold out”. Mind you I’ve had LifeCoin for 2-3 years and have never had the chance to purchase anything because of this problem.

Just downloaded LifeCoin and so far it’s been going pretty good which is pretty cool! Downloaded about 5 days ago and I already have $5!!! I ammm still TESTING it out and do currently have it on probationary mode to seeing how it goes and actually does pay up if anything so I’m hoping things keep going good and at this rate like they have been but I’ll update and let you know if that’s not the case! So far I do recommend to download and try it out and hopefully it works for you as well!!! 😬

I usually don’t waste my time reviewing but LifeCoin is really disappointing. I don’t know how well the algorithm works but I know for sure if you can make 5 coin a day you’re gonna take about 13 years to buy an iPhone X. Not unless you upgrade to a premium plan which is 3.33 per moth and you can make double of that. But if you filled 10 coins every single day you’d still get that phone by about 6 years. Not only that I just did but if research on my battery phone life and I realized that LifeCoin consumes as much as 23 times more battery than sweatcoin. If you guys haven’t heard of what sweatcoin, check it out. I think they came out with the idea of walking for money but the point is its way more reliable than this.

this app is an intriguing daily activity exercise application that allows users to redeem cool prizes for the effort they put in. The design interface of LifeCoin is easy to use and browse whether you are managing your account, looking to see how much lifecoins you have earned, want to refer friends or looking to see what rewards are available for redemption. The quality of the rewards offered are very good ranging from Apple products to gift cards of some of the most popular retailers. My only concern is availability of these prizes. this app is a application that is well worth a download.

LifeCoin is very straightforward and what you have to do and you’re able to easily track exactly what LifeCoin was meant for.

In one particular spot the stuff that you’re tracking you able to break down how that works they even show you how it works.

The only thing that I would love to work on is the rewards category. Being able to receive better rewards or better (as in Shorter) timeframes.
