Does BookDoc app consume a lot of data?
Minimal; this is because we don't transmit data continuously at the background.
Will my steps data be captured properly if I don't turn on mobile data or if I travel overseas?
Minimal because we don't transmit real-time data.
The steps data will continue to capture if I don't turn on mobile data or in oversea?
No; although your phone / fitness tracker will capture your steps even without internet access, you will still need minimum internet connection to update the steps data on BookDoc app.
Why does BookDoc Activ still show 0 steps after I have synced with a fitness app/tracker?
For Apple Health: Each time when you open BookDoc app, the syncing animation will appear next to the Activ button on the landing page. Please ensure that you allow the syncing animation to finish before you close the app. Otherwise, due to security reasons on iPhone the app might not fully capture all your steps data.
For Google Fit: Sometimes there is a delay in the transmission of data from Google Fit to BookDoc app. Nonetheless, the sync is continuous and therefore the full steps data will be transmitted after some time.
For fitness tracker e.g. Fitbit or Garmin, please remember to turn on Bluetooth on your phone so that the steps data on your fitness tracker can be transmitted to its respective app. Should you require any assistance, please contact us at activatwork@bookdoc.com or 1300-88-2362 (Mon-Fri: 9am-6pm, Sat: 9am-1pm).
What is BookDoc Activ Membership Tier?
| Membership Tiers |
Average Daily Steps in a Month |
| Platinum |
10,000 for 3 consecutive months |
| Gold |
10,000 |
| Silver |
6,000 |
| Bronze |
3,000 |
How do I achieve and maintain Platinum Tier?
In order to achieve Platinum Tier, you will need to maintain Gold Tier for 3 consecutive months whereby to achieve Gold Tier you need to maintain Average Daily Steps of at least 10,000 for each month.
For example, if you achieve Gold Tier for Month 1 & 2, by Month 3 if you can still maintain 10,000 Average Daily Steps, you will unlock the Platinum Tier by the end of Month 3.
To maintain the Platinum Tier, you will also need to maintain the 10,000 Average Daily Steps every subsequent month. If somehow you only achieve 7,000 Average Daily Steps on a particular month, your Tier will then become Silver. Subsequently you will need to repeat 3 consecutive months of Gold Tier again before unlocking Platinum.
What are the rewards I get to enjoy by achieving the Membership Tiers?
The list of rewards is updated from time to time; you may refer to the latest available rewards by clicking "View Rewards" on the Activ page.
When can I claim the rewards?
You will receive notification on the 1st day of the month based on the Membership Tier you achieved on the previous month. If you achieved at least Bronze Tier, you may claim the corresponding rewards in the form of e-voucher within the first 7 days of the month. The claimed e-vouchers will generally stay in the app for 30 days during which you may redeem from the merchants via online or physical outlets, depending on the Terms & Conditions.
What will happen if I miss the claiming cycle for the rewards?
You may try again on the following months as the reward claiming cycle repeats every month.
What should I do if I am unable to redeem the reward from the merchant?
