Tell your group.

Every challenge has its own chat: who's heading out before work, who found it hard yesterday, who's up for two o'clock. You see how many of you have done it today, and you can nudge anyone who hasn't logged yet.

Companion mode

Not sure where to start? It helps you work it out.

In most challenges you can open a private conversation with your pet. Tell it what kind of help you need and how you'd like it to talk to you; it helps you find a time and get today ready, remembers what you tell it and, once you're done, logs your day. No one else in the group can read it.

Your pet

Everything you achieve leaves a mark.

Every day you complete helps your pet grow. With what you earn along the way, you pick its coat and dress it your way.

Why together

It's not just a feeling.

Science backs doing challenges as a group. Here's a selection of studies that support it.

  1. Cochrane · Stead et al. · 2017 · 13 trials, 4,395 people

    Quitting smoking in a group nearly doubled quit rates compared with self-help materials.

  2. Psychological Bulletin · Harkin et al. · 2016 · 138 studies

    Tracking your progress helps you reach a goal, and it helps more when you share it with others.

  3. Advances in Experimental Social Psychology · Gollwitzer and Sheeran · 2006 · 94 studies

    Deciding in advance what you'll do, when and where makes you more likely to actually do it.

Questions

What people usually ask before starting.

What if I don't know anyone who wants to do it?

You don't need to. You can find an open challenge and join it, or create your own and send the invite link to whoever you like.

What happens if I miss a day?

The challenge carries on. That day doesn't count as done, and the next day you take your step again. You can only log today, so what matters is always the day in front of you.

Who can see what I write?

A challenge's chat is read by its group. Your journal and your Companion mode conversation are yours alone.

How do I get in?

With your email. We send you a code, you type it in and you're in; the first time, that same step creates your account.

What will your next challenge be?
