It would be cool if StepSmash had groups

Fitbit had groups where we could post to a feed and share workouts. They removed them during the transition to Google Health. I think it would be cool if StepSmash had a groups feature with a social activity feed.

I don’t know how it was in Fitbit, but it would be great if there was more connection between players. This way they can motivate each other.

I personally didn’t use Groups much in Fitbit either, but I did take a quick look before the old app was shut down.

From what I remember, they were a pretty simple activity feed, almost like an old-school Facebook group, where people could share workouts, comment, and chat together. There were options for both public and private groups, and I think back when Fitbit Challenges still existed, you could start group-wide challenges too.

We’ll probably take a similar route with StepSmash. A group space for people to chat, share activity, and eventually start challenges together seems like the direction that would make the most sense.

I’m happy to announce that we’re beginning a private beta test of the new groups functionality in StepSmash. If you’ve participated in private beta builds for iOS or Android in the past you will automatically be included in this test. If you haven’t participated previously but you would like to participate leave a comment below and I will send you a DM with details.
