We recommend using a wearable pedometer or another step counter app to keep track of your daily step total. If you don’t have a pedometer then you can still participate fully, manually entering your steps on our website.

Your options for tracking your steps are:

Option 1: Manually

Use any app, pedometer or wearable and manually enter the distance

At the end of each day, just login to Big Team Challenge and type in your tracked activity in steps, miles, kilometres on the Dashboard page.

You can also manually enter these distances on our iOS and Android app.

Option 2: Apple HealthKit (iOS only)

Download the Big Team Challenge iOS app and sync with Apple Health

Option 3: Google Fit (Android only)

Download the Big Team Challenge Android app and sync with Google Fit

Option 4: Fitbit

Connect your Fitbit account to Big Team Challenge to sync your steps in real-time

If you have a Fitbit device, you can connect your Big Team Challenge account to your Fitbit account.

Option 5: Garmin Connect

Connect your Garmin Connect account to Big Team Challenge to sync your steps in real-time

If you have a Garmin device, you can connect your Big Team Challenge account to your Garmin account.

Option 6: GPS (Outdoor only)

Download the Big Team Challenge iOS or Android device and use our GPS tracker to accurately track your outdoor walk or run

Our mobile apps have a built-in GPS tracker to track your walk or run. This works best outdoors, so it's great for tracking those walks through the park or along the esplanade.
