Company mission

To motivate people to exercise by bringing them together.

Our take

Motion was founded to help users stay active and healthy as a group all year round. It does this with its app that allows people to create a team with friends, sync trackers to automatically add activities, and share and track weekly goals.

This means that users can see each others goals and progress to stay motivated, and keep each other on track. By bringing social media functionality to fitness, Motion makes staying in shape far easier and more enjoyable.

After downloading the App Store app, you can set your weekly activity goal, choosing from a number of workouts, step count, active calories, and distance, before creating a team and inviting friends: by reacting to your friends' activities, you can easily keep each other motivated.

The app also allows you to build up both team streaks and personal streaks, meaning that everyone is incentivised to workout, helping users stay on track with their fitness goals.
