This skill helps you and your companion step up to activity challenge by taking steps more often to achieve a higher goal of activity. Alexa will tell you about your steps, and those of your group to keep you informed and motivated. You will know not only your steps, but your group goal and how your activity is contributing to the overall goal. You can ask how others are doing too and how their activities compare to yours. Alexa will direct you to various parts of the report you want to listen. With this skill and your Echo, there is no need to access your smart phone or your computer every time to view everyone's data. This skill uses data from your Fitbit tracker and those from your group to compile the activity report. So everyone in your group must register to share their activity data.
