Meet Fitton, a fitness-focused decentralized application (dApp) built on TON.

Fitton is carving out its place in Web3 wellness with its 30-Day Fitness Challenge, designed to inspire activity and reward consistency. Aimed at beginners and intermediates, the app addresses common fitness hurdles like low motivation and poor technique, which can lead to injuries. The Fitton team leveraged the simplicity of creating Telegram Mini Apps to make a test launch application accessible beyond the blockchain community.

Early user feedback during the test launch period has been pivotal in refining the app. The team scaled its infrastructure to support high activity loads and remains committed to delivering a reliable and engaging experience. Fitton’s rewards, from tokens to exclusive items, aim to inspire long-term commitment to fitness.

For developers building on TON, Fitton is a great example of how blockchain can drive practical, user-focused solutions.

What motivated the Fitton team to create the 30-Day Fitness Challenge, and how does it align with promoting active lifestyles?

The 30-Day Fitness Challenge celebrates Fitton V1 and offers a glimpse into future events. It encourages participants to compete for leaderboard positions, earn rewards, and stay active throughout the month. Fitton focuses on two common challenges fitness beginners and intermediates face: staying motivated and avoiding injuries caused by improper technique. The app aims to address both these issues by offering a supportive, accessible platform.

Can you share details about the app's user experience? Were there any challenges in ensuring a bug-free experience during the launch?

User feedback has been instrumental in refining the app’s user experience. As Fitton nears its full release, addressing user-reported issues has helped ensure smoother operations. To handle high traffic, the team significantly upgraded the infrastructure, focusing on load management and network stability so users can enjoy a reliable experience.

Privacy is a growing concern for app users. Are there plans to incorporate features like background and face blurring to enhance user confidence?

Privacy is important to us. Media files are stored locally and securely on users’ devices, ensuring the app never accesses private recordings. Future updates will include features like an automated blur toggle and background change, offering users even greater peace of mind.

What criteria did you use to select the exercises in the challenge, and are there plans to include new workouts in the future?

We began with well-known exercises in the initial phase to avoid any resistance. In the future, we'll offer users a wider selection of exercises. We also plan to add multipliers to specific exercises to encourage people to push themselves beyond their comfort zones.

Can you explain the real-world value behind the rewards, such as the exclusive bracelet? How do they tie into the challenge's goals?

We designed our rewards system to encourage users to exercise. We're exploring ways to bring on-chain rewards, such as NFTs, to life in a physical form. Despite their recent negative reputation, NFTs are a good way of connecting on-chain and real-world items.

What makes the "super-exclusive rewards" special, and how can top performers receive them?

Only the most dedicated fitness enthusiasts are likely to receive the super-exclusive rewards. Competition is a powerful motivator, and we want to use it to our advantage. You need to commit to regular daily exercise and encourage others to join you to earn exclusive rewards.

How has user feedback influenced Fitton's development, and what are the next steps to improve the app based on early insights?

User feedback has been critical in identifying and fixing bugs, improving AI-powered exercise recognition, and shaping future updates. We’ve also received feedback on what to add and how our AI model performs in recognizing your exercise techniques.

We are open to feedback and value all your suggestions. Join our Telegram chat to share your ideas.

What types of rewards can participants look forward to, and how are they designed to motivate consistent engagement?

Fitton rewards include tokens, NFTs, airdrops, sportswear, and other real-world items. We have plenty more in store, and we think you'll be impressed with what we're working on!

Fitton’s journey demonstrates the potential of combining innovative technology with meaningful real-world applications. TON’s holistic approach to building a thriving community continues with creative dApps such as Fitton.

As the TON ecosystem expands, we’ll continue to provide better building opportunities for developers. These collaborations strengthen the network and provide developers and projects like Fitton with the tools to innovate.
