Background
Catch and HopeLab is running a developer challenge to inspire physical activity with Android apps. We are extending a prize that is exclusive to Health 2.0 Challenge entrees. Health 2.0 entrees will not qualify for the 100-Day-Prize offered to already participating developers.
Description
Create an Android app that inspires and tracks physical movement.
What kind of app can you build to encourage people to get in motion? How can movement be just as easy and fun as checking-in or updating a status?
Evaluation Criteria
The Health 2.0 Challenge prize will be judged by Catch and HopeLab on the following criteria:
- Does the app get people to move?
- Is the app fun and easy to use?
- Does the app do a good job of tracking movement results?
- Does the app have a theme that has mass appeal?
- Does the app offer creative use of incentives to spur movement?
- Makes use of accelerometer and other sensors?
