[Wednesday 9/30/26]

Last year 2025, the Health App on my Android Cell Phone (Samsung through T-mobile) worked for awhile. I was one happy camper. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Then AARP posted they were NO longer dealing with the app I was using on my cell.

Meanwhile I have read over the years on this site the challenge of FINDING AN APP THAT DOES WORK WITH AARP SETUP.

Anyone have any "luck" with finding one? ๐Ÿค”

I walk 1/2 hour EVERY DAY & it sure would be "nice" to EARN AARP Reward Points when I have "enough" miles in. When I was EARNING Points, I would walk LONGER each day. Lol, YES, it was an "incentive" to get my old body moving. ๐Ÿ˜…

Thanks,

    Oh my goodness!!! Didnot realize that by LOGGING OUT of the AARP app on my Android Cell Phone this morning AFTER completing my "steps" = my Health Connect DIDNOT "stay" connected to AARP. ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

    Geez, glad I read some more of the "online" information AARP posted just now. Lol, never liked going to school & feel like I have returned at age 68!!! ๐Ÿ˜…

    Anyway, moving FORWARD = NEVER "logging out" of AARP app unless their system for whatever reason logs me out. Happens sometimes. ๐Ÿ™„

    Anyone else getting their steps in? We would luv to hear how many you are doing, your goals & so on!!! ๐Ÿ‘

    Well, got 5,437 steps in TODAY at 11:15am ET. Now to see WHEN my Rewards Points are ADDED for completing at least 5,000 steps. AARP information on "Fitness Trackers" says it can take up to 24 hours to process.

    Hopefully, mine does by TOMORROW at 11:15am ET. ๐Ÿคž

    Take care,

    Google Fit was "replaced" with Health Connect.

    (1) Anyone USING Health Connect? ๐Ÿค”

    (2) If YES, any "tips" to share? ๐Ÿค”

    (3) Anyone RECEIVED their "Fitness Tracker" points YESTERDAY OR TODAY? ๐Ÿค”

    โžก๏ธ[*** Lol, I DIDNOT make it to 5,000 steps to get my 100 Reward Points YESTERDAY. ๐Ÿ˜ž Only had 3,125 steps.

    But will be TRYING again in a few. Got to get them in BEFORE 12midnight ET tonight. Wish me luck! ๐Ÿคž
