About Bristol Moves+

Bristol Moves+ is a free app exclusively for students and staff at the University of Bristol. By connecting an activity tracker to the app, users collect points for the daily activity they do.

Bristol Moves+ incentivises individuals to be more active, more often. Our primary aim is to use Bristol Moves+ to support University of Bristol students and staff who currently have lower activity levels to achieve more daily movement, for the benefit of their physical and mental wellbeing.

  • Compatible with Apple Health, Google Fit, Strava, Garmin, Fitbit and Withings
  • Track walking, running, swimming and cycling activity
  • Redeem points for rewards including; clothing, food and drink vouchers and more
  • Complete in-app Challenges for bonus points
  • Join public groups or create your own group with peers
  • Unlock in-app achievement badges

I love the app and the rewards! [Moves+] encourages me to get outside and I’ve noticed a difference in my mood because of it.
