The problem that inspired it
Local businesses want new customers through the door, and people want a reason to keep moving. Most step counters stop at the number.
The solution
Goovo connects the two. Steps sync automatically from Apple Health and earn points. Users compete on a monthly leaderboard and redeem points at nearby partner businesses they find on a map.
Partners manage their offers through a dedicated partner area.
