Once you’ve entered the correct code and went to a challenge page, but join button is inactive, then navigate back to the page where the code was asked. Scrolling down a little bit you’ll see the challenge preview. By clicking on it you’ll again go to challenge page and should see that you’ve already joined.
Firstly, make sure that you have Google Fit application. If you have Google Fit, but it doesn’t track steps then turn activity tracking from Google Fit settings off and on again. Additionally, check that Fit app has all the necessary permissions. If Google Fit app is tracking steps then make sure that you’ve logged into Google Fit with the same Google account you gave access in FitSphere app.
FitSphere app language depends on which language is set as a preferred language in phone settings. If the preferred language is Estonian then FitSphere app is in Estonian and if the preferred language is any other then app is in English.
These are personal goals which can be set. Activities, for which an activity is started in app, are going to goals which they’re tied to.
Keep in mind that for activity tracking only FitSphere app will track activities (not Google Fit or Apple Health). This in turn could result in a slightly different steps result than you’ll see on the upper part of the FitSphere app home page. You don’t have to use activity tracking function nor set a personal goal for your steps to go for challenges’ progress.
