Evidation
An app that rewards you for tracking habits and joining health studies.
What Evidation does
Evidation connects to your health apps and wearables and gives you points for things like steps, sleep and logging. Points go toward cash, gift cards or donations. It also invites you to health research studies, some of which offer rewards. Free on iPhone, Android and Apple Watch.
Evidation works a bit differently from other walking apps. Instead of counting steps itself, it connects to Apple Health, Fitbit, Samsung Health, Google Fit, Oura and other trackers, and shows you trends in your activity, sleep and heart health. Points come from that tracked activity, plus short surveys and logging habits.
The bigger draw for many people is research. Evidation partners with universities and health groups and may invite you to studies that match your profile. Some studies offer cash or other rewards for taking part. It says it only shares your health data with your consent.
As with any walking rewards app, the points are a bonus, not income, and reviews mention the rules for earning have changed over time. If you're comfortable sharing health data and like the idea of contributing to research, it's a thoughtful pick. Circles let you compare steps with friends and family too.
