Want to log your activity without syncing a device? 📝
You can use manual activity entry to add steps, distance, or active minutes right into your Stridekick account.
⚠️ Contact Stridekick support to enable manual activity entry and the activity conversion for your account.
✅ What Is Manual Activity Entry?
Manual activity entry lets you log your movement directly into Stridekick. You can add:
Steps
Distance
Active minutes
These entries can be combined with synced device data for the same day, and you can enter activity for up to 7 days in the past.
📲 How to Add a Manual Activity Entry:
From your Dashboard, tap the floating "+" icon in the bottom right corner
(or tap "Add Activity")Tap Manual Activity or choose a recent activity to log again
Enter your activity name and any of the following:
Steps
Distance
Active minutes
Date of the activity (default is today)
4. Review the activity details and then click Save activity
You'll see a confirmation message once your activity is saved!
⚠️ Note: You'll need to enter data for each metric (steps, distance, or minutes) for it to count. If you encounter issues such as missing activity data for specific days, you can manually enter the details to fill these gaps. Additionally, ensure you are using the latest app version and that manual entry is enabled in your account settings if the manual entry button does not appear.
🙌 Using Manual Entry Responsibly
We trust that you’ll use manual activity entry in good faith. Misuse (such as inflating totals) violates our Community Guidelines and may result in account warnings or removal.
❓FAQs
Do I need a tracker to use Stridekick?
Nope! You can use your iPhone or Android phone as a fitness tracker. Here’s how to get started.
Can I use a tracker and manual entry?
Yes. Your manual entries will be added to synced device data for the same day. Totals in Stridekick may differ from your device totals as a result.
How far back can I log data?
You can enter activity for today and the previous 6 days. We recommend logging your activity daily to keep your challenge stats current. If you notice missing data for any specific days, you can update these metrics manually by providing details like steps or activity type to complete your records.
Do I have to connect a device?
Nope. You can dismiss the dashboard prompt about connecting a device and still use manual entry.
Will manual entries count toward my challenge?
Yes! Any activity added manually will count toward your current challenge—as long as it’s entered during the challenge period or within the grace period. After a challenge ends, new entries won’t update challenge stats but will still save to your account.
Can I log multiple days in one entry?
No. Log each day’s activity separately. Combining days in one entry can throw off your challenge stats.
Is this feature available to everyone?
Yes, but manual activity entry must be enabled by our support team. Reach out to us and we’ll help you get set up. Always ensure your app is updated to the latest version to access the manual entry feature. If you cannot see the '+' button, confirm that account permissions allow manual entry and contact support for assistance if necessary.
