Levelwell Steps & Habits

Your steps

Health Connect: Levelwell reads your step totals for the last 7 days from Health Connect each time it syncs. Pixel phones on Android 16 count steps there themselves. On other phones, turn on Health Connect sync in Samsung Health or Google's health app.
By hand: tap + Add to add steps to today, from 1 up to 100,000.
Your step goal is 10,000 by default, and you can set it from 1,000 to 50,000.

Today's stepssum

steps = Health Connect steps + steps you added by hand

The two are added together, so don't add a walk by hand if your watch already counted it.

What steps earn

Step XPper day, before your streak bonus

+5 for every full 1,000 steps   (up to 25,000 steps = 125 XP)
+50 at your step goal
+30 at 1.5 × your step goal

Worked examples 10,000-step goal

12,345 steps: 12 × 5 + 50110 XP

26,500 steps: 125 + 50 + 30205 XP

Steps XP grows through the day and is never taken back.
Quests: walk half your goal (+40), hit your goal (+70), 1.5 × your goal (+120), work out and hit your goal (+120). Weekly challenge: 5 × your goal in a week (+300).
Under 30% of your goal: −15, but only if you've had steps recorded in the 14 days before.
Badges: 10K Day (+60), 20K Day (+200), Marathon Legs at 30,000 in a day (+500), your goal on 7, 30 and 100 days (+100, +300, +800), and 1 million and 5 million steps in total (+500, +1,500).

Active days

Home shows Activity n/3. A day is active when you do 3 of these 7 things, and active days build your activity streak:

Thing	Counts when
Workout	Any workout or logged activity
Steps	You reach your step goal
Water	You reach your water goal
Meals	3 or more foods logged
Fast	A fast of 8 hours or more, or a fasting day
Sleep	A night logged that ended that day
Clean	Your Clean pledge or check-in (if you have a tracker)

Clean trackers

The Clean tab helps you quit or cut back. There are 8 built-in trackers: drugs, alcohol, nicotine, gambling, porn, sex, sugar and caffeine. You can add up to 3 of your own, with your own name, icon and what you count. You can run up to 4 trackers at once.

Setting one up asks when you were last clean (it can be in the past), and if you like, how much you used a day and what it cost a day.

Clean stays private to your phone. You can add a 4-digit PIN, and discreet mode shows "Clean streak" in notifications, widgets and Home. Nothing from Clean goes into your friend code.

Time, money and units

The Clean countercurrent streak

clean time     = now − clean since   (days, hours, minutes, seconds)
money saved    = cost a day × days clean
units avoided  = amount a day × days clean   (hours back, for hour-based trackers)

Worked example Nicotine, 10 a day, $9 a day, 42.2 days clean

Money saved: $9 × 42.2$380

Cigarettes or vapes avoided: 10 × 42.2422

Progress also keeps your longest streak, your total clean time across every streak, your number of attempts, and a 12-week calendar of clean days, slips and pledges.

Milestones

There are 22 milestones from 1 day to 10 years, each with XP. Home shows the next one and how long until you get there.

Milestone	XP	Milestone	XP
1 day	25	3 months	600
2 days	25	4 months	600
3 days	50	6 months	1,000
5 days	50	9 months	1,000
1 week	100	1 year	2,000
10 days	100	500 days	2,000
2 weeks	150	2 years	3,000
3 weeks	150	1,000 days	3,000
1 month	300	3 years	3,000
45 days	300	5 years	5,000
2 months	400	10 years	10,000

Milestones you'd already passed when you set up a tracker don't pay. Backdating a tracker 10 days pays nothing for days 1 to 10.
Each fully clean day also earns +20 per tracker, for up to 2 trackers a day.
Badges: One Week Free (+150), Thirty Strong (+400), Ninety Days (+800), One Year Free (+2,000).

Pledge, check-in, cravings

What	How	XP
Daily pledge	Once a day; also unlocks a pledge quest worth +30	+10
Check-in	Your mood, cravings from 0 to 10, and a note	+10
Craving beaten	I'm having a craving, then It passed; up to 3 a day	+10

The craving button walks you through box breathing (in 4, hold 4, out 4, hold 4), shows your own reasons and 10 ideas to try, and keeps help lines close, including 988 and SAMHSA. Riding out 10 cravings earns Urge Surfer (+150), and 50 earns Wave Master (+500).

Slips

A slip starts a new streak from that moment. Nothing you've earned is taken away: your total clean time, your longest streak and the milestones you've already reached stay, and no XP is lost. Your attempts go up by one.

Money saved and units avoided count from the start of your new streak.
On a new streak, milestones of 1 week and longer pay again. The 1, 2, 3 and 5-day ones don't.

Recovery timelines

Each built-in tracker shows a timeline of what changes as you stay clean. Nicotine's follows the World Health Organization:

After	What happens
20 minutes	Heart rate and blood pressure drop
12 hours	Carbon monoxide in your blood is back to normal
2 weeks–3 months	Circulation and lung function improve
1–9 months	Less coughing and shortness of breath
1 year	Heart disease risk about half a smoker's
5 years	Stroke risk starts falling toward a non-smoker's
10 years	Lung cancer risk about half a smoker's
15 years	Heart disease risk the same as a non-smoker's

Alcohol, caffeine and sugar have timelines from published research. The other trackers have encouragement milestones. Custom trackers have milestones and XP but no timeline.
