Product Summary
Charity Miles is a fitness app that makes charitable donations on the user’s behalf for each mile tracked. The app is free and available for iPhone and Android users in the iOS and Google Play app stores.
Users can earn 25 cents per mile for walking and 10 cents for cycling, but there are caps on how much the company will donate in a certain time period. If you’re looking for a dedicated walking or running app, this isn’t it. You’ll get metrics such as total steps and distance traveled, but that’s about it. The interface is also quite buggy and users have reported the app is prone to crashing.
There have also been complaints of the app not tracking every mile but there are ways to manually enter any activity to ensure you earn the proper number of credits.
