Step-by-step guide:
How to post a distance using ConquerorSteps and ConquerorDistance:
These are a step tracker and distance tracker that we have built into the Conqueror app which uses your phone's pedometer (for ConquerorSteps) and your phone's GPS (for ConquerorDistance).
ConquerorSteps
First you'll need to allow our app to use your phone's pedometer. Your phone will prompt you to do this when you click on ConquerorSteps the first time.
From there the steps your phone records will be saved in the app.
If you are on an active challenge and Autoposting is on, your steps will post to the challenge at midnight each day, so you'll see your previous days total each day.
If you don't have an active challenge or Autoposting is off, your steps will still be saved in the app, and they will be available the following day in the Activity screen for you to choose where to post them later.
ConquerorDistance
First you'll need to allow our app to use your phone's GPS. Your phone will prompt you to do this when you click on ConquerorDistance the first time.
As ConquerorDistance records distances in the app you need to:
Select the activity type in the ConquerorDistance screen.
Start and stop the activity.
Select the Challenge it will post to (there is no autopost option).
If you don't have an active challenge the activity will be available in the Activity screen for you to choose where to post later.
How to post a distance via a connected app (Apple Health, Health Connect, Google Health, Strava or Garmin):
Please note that there connections often involve a wearable device sending data to an app (or 2) and then that app sending data to The Conqueror, so you can read more in our connections page for each specific connection.
Tap on the menu icon on the right in the menu bar at the bottom of the screen.
Tap on connections.
Tap on +Add a connection
Follow the set up steps specific to your needs.
Tap on posting preferences.
Select the challenge you want to post the distance to.
Tick the sources (devices/apps) you used to track your activity/distance. If you are completing one challenge, tap all sources (default).
A note on posting distances manually:
The information you've entered won't instantly appear on The Conqueror Challenges App. Data from Fitbit, Garmin, and Apple Health will appear on The Conqueror App at midnight. You'll see this progress in your app when you start moving in the morning ... so checking it from bed in the morning might not work!
How to view a posted distance before midnight (semi-automatic posting):
If you have a Fitbit, Garmin, Apple Health, or Health Connect device, this feature will enable you to view the distances you post before midnight.
Open The Conqueror Challenges App.
In the menu bar at the bottom of the screen, tap the post distance icon (the + in a circle).
Under the post a distance tab is a list of your connected apps/devices. Tap on the app/device you used to track your distance.
Enter the distance/steps.
Add a comment and/or photo (optional).
Tap on the challenge(s) you want to post the distance to. If you're completing more than one challenge, the other challenges will be toggled off (greyed out).
Tap post.
Confirm the details are correct.
Notes on semi-automatic posting and connections:
Don't force shut The Conqueror Challenges App while using a connected app. Third-party apps require The Conqueror Challenges App to be running in the background in order to send data. If the app is forced shut, the data will not sync and the midnight posts won't happen.
If your Fitbit/Google Health isn't syncing, open the Google Health app and refresh it to send data.
