Pact is an innovative fitness app that motivates users to achieve their health goals by leveraging their financial incentives.

Overview

Pact is a distinctive fitness application that aims to motivate users to lead a healthier lifestyle by directly impacting their finances. The app operates on a straightforward philosophy: users who fulfill the fitness goals they set for themselves will earn money, but those who fail to meet their goals will have to pay a penalty.

Unique Features

Pact allows users to establish three different types of pacts, each aimed at a specific fitness goal. The first pact encourages users to attend the gym regularly, with financial rewards offered for consistent gym visits. The second pact is designed for running enthusiasts, offering monetary benefits for achieving running targets. The third pact incentivizes users to maintain a healthy diet, rewarding them financially each time they consume healthy food and provide evidence of such.

Customization and Functionality

Upon selecting the type of pact they wish to follow, users can customize the conditions to suit their needs. The number of days per week a user commits to exercising and the specific goals they set will determine the potential rewards or penalties. However, it's important to note that the penalties for not meeting goals are often greater than the potential earnings, offering a strong incentive to avoid lapses in fitness routines.

Monetary Incentives

Pact is a compelling option for those seeking a tangible incentive to maintain a healthier lifestyle. The prospect of earning real money for meeting fitness goals, or conversely, losing money for not reaching these targets, provides a powerful motivation for users to exercise consistently and eat healthily. For the app to function correctly, users will need to link their PayPal account, as all financial transactions take place through this medium.

Potentially dangerous permissions

  • ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION: Allows an app to access approximate location. Alternatively, you might want ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION.
  • ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION: Allows an app to access precise location. Alternatively, you might want ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION.
  • CAMERA: Required to be able to access the camera device.
  • READ_CONTACTS: Allows an application to read the user's contacts data.
  • READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to read from external storage.
  • READ_PHONE_STATE: Allows read only access to phone state, including the phone number of the device, current cellular network information, the status of any ongoing calls, and a list of any PhoneAccounts registered on the device.
  • WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: Allows an application to write to external storage.

Other permissions

  • ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Allows applications to access information about networks.
  • ACCESS_WIFI_STATE: Allows applications to access information about Wi-Fi networks.
  • BROADCAST_STICKY: Allows an application to broadcast sticky intents. These are broadcasts whose data is held by the system after being finished, so that clients can quickly retrieve that data without having to wait for the next broadcast.
  • CHANGE_WIFI_STATE: Allows applications to change Wi-Fi connectivity state.
  • INTERNET: Allows applications to open network sockets.
  • RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting. If you don't request this permission, you will not receive the broadcast at that time. Though holding this permission does not have any security implications, it can have a negative impact on the user experience by increasing the amount of time it takes the system to start and allowing applications to have themselves running without the user being aware of them. As such, you must explicitly declare your use of this facility to make that visible to the user.
  • VIBRATE: Allows access to the vibrator.
  • WAKE_LOCK: Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming.
