in less than 60 seconds.

MoveQuest reads authorized activity data from Apple Health to support Proof of Physical Activity (PoPA) submissions. The whole setup is one prompt — tap allow when MoveQuest asks.

How this works

On iOS, MoveQuest initiates the Apple Health permission request — not the other way around. When you first open the app, it asks for the permissions it needs. Tap Allow, and you're connected. No need to visit Apple Health first.

The setup

Four steps. One prompt.

Most users complete this in under a minute.

Download MoveQuest.

Install the MoveQuest app from the App Store.

Open MoveQuest on the App Store →
Open MoveQuest.

During setup, MoveQuest will automatically request permission to access your Apple Health activity data. No need to open Apple Health first.
Tap Allow.

When the iOS permission screen appears, grant MoveQuest access to the activity categories required for PoPA participation.

MoveQuest reads approved information from Apple Health — it does not collect activity directly from device sensors. Apple Health is the single source of truth.
Verify the connection.

Once permission is granted, MoveQuest can read eligible activity information from Apple Health. Your dashboard will start populating within a few minutes.

You’re connected

Activity will flow into MoveQuest from Apple Health within a few minutes. Depending on your device and available data sources, this may include steps, distance, workouts, calories burned, and sleep — the five activity categories used by MoveQuest’s Proof of Physical Activity (PoPA) system. Next, connect a wallet, claim your free Phantom Trailblazer miners, and submit your first PoPA.

Troubleshooting

When something’s not working.

The most common iOS issues. The first one is the one most users hit.

I accidentally dismissed the Health permission request▶

This is the most common iOS issue. If you tapped Don’t Allow or dismissed the prompt by mistake, you can re-enable permissions manually:

Open Settings
Select Privacy & Security
Select Health
Select MoveQuest
Enable the permissions you wish to share

Once permissions are enabled, return to MoveQuest and refresh your dashboard.

MoveQuest doesn’t appear in Settings → Privacy → Health▶

Apple Health only displays apps that have requested Health permissions. If MoveQuest isn’t in the list, the authorization request hasn’t been triggered yet.

Open the MoveQuest app, complete the onboarding flow, and the Health permission prompt will appear. After you respond to it (allow or deny), MoveQuest will then show up in the iOS Health settings.

Steps show in Apple Health but not in MoveQuest▶

MoveQuest reads from Apple Health when it opens — there’s a short sync window between when iOS records new steps and when MoveQuest fetches them. If your steps already show in Apple Health but not in MoveQuest, switch back to the MoveQuest app and swipe down on the dashboard to force a manual refresh.

Apple Watch data missing from the total▶

Apple Health is the single source of truth. It consolidates step data from your iPhone, your Apple Watch, and any third-party fitness apps. MoveQuest reads that consolidated view — it doesn’t pull from the Watch directly.

So if Watch data is missing in MoveQuest, the issue is almost always upstream — the Watch isn’t syncing to Apple Health properly. To check:

Open Apple Health and confirm Watch data is appearing there. If it’s missing in Health, it will be missing in MoveQuest.
Make sure your Watch is paired and synced in the Watch app.
Confirm Settings → Privacy & Security → Motion & Fitness → Fitness Tracking is enabled.

Once Watch data flows correctly into Apple Health, MoveQuest will read it automatically.
