Fitstream App FAQ

This is our compilation of most frequently asked questions, that we'll be building over time, about our apps and website.

What is Fitstream?

Fitstream is a body transformation service to help you track your progress, stay motivated and learn from others in the Fitstream community. 

You track your body using our Android and iOS app and you get to decide what you share with the community and what's kept private. 

Things you can track in Fitstream;

• Photos of your body to actually see your changes over time (or why not food, exercises and workouts)
• Body measurements such as weight, body fat %, abs, arms, waist and see how they're changing from measurement to measurement
• Notes and journal entries to capture thoughts, feelings and ideas

If you mark a log as public then it's shared with the wider community where you can get advice, encouragement and tips, or just a pat on the back with likes.

How do I get started with Fitstream?

Simply download our Android or iOS app to your phone and create an account for free. 

Now you can jump straight into adding your first photo, measurement or note... or simply browse the public community posts for inspiration and to see how others are progressing. 

How do I add a public post? What is the Fitstream Community? 

The Fitstsream Community is made up of thousands of people around the world all using Fitstream to help transform their body and hit their fitness goals. 

All your data is private by default and you can choose which measurements, photos and notes you share in the public commuity. 

People share their posts publically for many reasons, such as;

1. Accountability - sharing your goals and progress with others is a great way to keep you accountable and motivated
2. For support and advice - to get help from others
3. To help others who are pursuing the same goals and challenges as you.

For more information about our mission see the community guidelines and Fitstream Manifesto.
