My Actifit Report Card: January 26 2026
Hello Hive!
I have a small issue with the Actifit app. Since the redesign, it suggested syncing my steps with the Health app on my phone... but it doesn’t seem to be working. Result: 0 steps displayed for yesterday.
A bit frustrating, especially since I had a nice run. But it’s okay, I have Strava 😄 So here is the recap of my run from yesterday.
I was supposed to run for 45 minutes at my easy pace / aerobic endurance (EF). I used my app runquest10k.com to generate the program. @altheana came with me, but we are not following the same plan, so she went back home a bit earlier than me.
During the day, I had two big meetings that were quite exhausting, which really drained me mentally and triggered quite a few questions and doubts. We went out to run around 5:30 pm. It was already almost dark, and we are clearly not equipped to run at night. So instead of running along the road, we went across the fields.
When I got back home, it was completely dark and I couldn’t see much anymore. I even slightly twisted my ankle by stepping into a small hole that I hadn’t seen.
Despite that, I’m really happy to be able to use my little project that I created myself. It’s super satisfying, honestly.

Bonjour Hive !
J’ai un petit souci avec l’application Actifit. Depuis la refonte, elle m’a proposé de synchroniser mes pas avec l’app Health de mon téléphone... mais ça ne semble pas fonctionner. Résultat : 0 pas affiché sur ma journée d’hier.
Un peu frustrant, surtout que j’avais fait un beau running. Mais ce n’est pas grave, j’ai Strava 😄 Voici donc le récap de ma course d’hier.
Je devais courir 45 minutes en endurance fondamentale (EF). J’ai utilisé mon application runquest10k.com pour générer le programme. @altheana m’a accompagné, mais nous ne suivons pas le même plan, donc elle est rentrée un peu avant moi.
Dans la journée, j’avais eu deux grosses réunions assez éprouvantes, qui m’ont bien lessivé mentalement et provoqué pas mal de remises en question. Nous sommes sortis courir vers 17h30. Il faisait déjà presque nuit, et nous ne sommes clairement pas équipés pour courir dans le noir. Du coup, au lieu de longer la route, nous sommes passés à travers champs.
Quand je suis rentré, il faisait complètement nuit et je n’y voyais plus grand-chose. Je me suis même légèrement tordu la cheville en marchant dans un petit trou que je n’avais pas vu.
Malgré ça, je suis vraiment content de pouvoir utiliser mon petit projet que j’ai créé moi-même. C’est super satisfaisant, honnêtement.

Go to the settings and make sure it is getting the steps from your phone sensors and not the health connect garbage. It asks every time I open the app which is highly annoying but the setting remains for my phone sensors.
That’s what I did last time, but there was a recent update and now, when I click on the settings, the app crashes.
So I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it, which meant it was no longer connected to Health. Now I get a popup every time, but at least it uses my phone’s sensors.
Yeah I get that popup too which is annoying but at least it works otherwise.
This is strange, can you please come by the actifit discord and share more details with the team?
