Step Integrity

The way that SideQuest works is that the algorithm analyzes steps from your native health app and converts them into experience.

The formula can tell the difference between organic steps and ones that were manually logged.

Manually adding thousands of fake steps doesn't make you a high level adventurer, it makes you a high-level couch potato with a flagged account.

To keep competitive fairness on the leaderboard for everyone who's actually touching grass, accounts flagged for manual steps may face:

  • A friendly warning (past certain thresholds)
  • XP rollbacks (where'd my fake levels go?)
  • Shadowban (nobody sees you on the leaderboard. how would you even know?)
  • Permanent ban (gone. reduced to atoms.)

Love y'all,
