What is Gamification?
Gamification is the application of typical elements of game playing (e.g. point scoring, competition with others, rules of play) to other areas of activity, typically as an online marketing technique to encourage engagement with a product or service.
Gamification is exciting because it promises to make the hard stuff in life fun.
Feature description
We thought we want to keep things interesting inside our app so we have decided to spice it up a bit with a gamification module that will bring some competition into our app & on top of it will motivate users to discover all our app’s features.
In the latest version of Go Crew you can find notice in the main menu on the left side of the screen that 2 new entries are available: Leaderboard & Achievments.
Collecting points while using the app & unlocking all the achievements will definitely boost the user’s score up on the leaderboard.
Leaderboard
Top Crewsers
This represents a chart of Top users that are using Go Crew more often. Your score point will be increased when you are using the app while moving.
This means when your phone will have a new location, you will collect points and your position will move up on the leaderboard.
1 point for each 100 steps
1 point for every 30 location updates
The points counter will reset if your restart the app.
Start the app, get moving and make high-scored to rank up on the leaderboard.
Achievements
As in any other game we want to reward our users with achievements because of their hard work and willingness to discover Go Crew’s features. This means every time we have a list of hidden achievements that users can unlock and collect when they do certain action on the app.
