Why do you need a valid e-mail address to activate a membership?

A valid e-mail address is required for account authorization, and to support the process of identity verification. The e-mail address is only used to notify members of changes to an account, and is required to communicate directly with a member or a parent/guardian regarding the account.

WeMüv Inc. will not send unsolicited promotional e-mails to members, nor will we share any private information with any third parties.

 

Why do I have to enter my parent's email address to activate my account?

To play on the WeMüv™ site a valid parent/guardian email is required when a new player account is created. This is a mandatory safety requirement and player safety is very important to WeMüv™.

When a player account is created, you will be prompted for a parent/guardian email. Enter the correct email address and click submit. An email will be sent to the email address that was entered. The parent/guardian must then follow the directions in order to activate the account.

Note that your old pedometer will no longer work. Your new pedometer will now replace your old one and your new points will be added to the points you had previously accumulated with your old pedometer.
In order to purchase a replacement pedometer, please contact Customer Support. Click on the "Customer Support" link on the WeMüv™ website.
 

My pedometer has stopped working, what do I do?

There are a few reasons why your pedometer may have stopped working:

1. Is the battery in your pedometer dead? To replace the battery, have your parent/guardian:
• Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove battery compartment lid. Please keep the screw in a safe place to avoid losing it.
• With the aid of the crevice, lift compartment lid.
• Remove the old batteries and insert new ones, matching the polarities.
• Replace the lid by snapping it back into place and using screw to secure.
NOTE: When the battery compartment is opened or battery is replaced, all data in the pedometer will be reset.

2. Was your pedometer immersed into water? This may have caused damage to the pedometer and you may need to replace it. If your pedometer has been immersed into water, please see FAQ question entitled, "My pedometer was immersed into water, what do I do?".

3. Was your pedometer exposed to excessive force, shock, dust, extreme temperature changes or humidity? If so, this may cause your pedometer to malfunction and you may need to replace it.

4. Have you tampered with the internal components? Doing so may have caused damage to the pedometer and will violate the manufacturer's warranty.

If your pedometer is not working, contact Customer Support for assistance. Please click on the "Customer Support" link on the WeMüv™ website.

My pedometer was immersed into water, what do I do?

If your pedometer has been immersed into water, we apologize but this is not covered by the pedometer warranty. However, some people have experienced success in drying the pedometer out. In order to dry your pedometer out, follow these steps:

1. Allow the pedometer to dry completely
2. Pop the battery out
3. Put the battery back in

If this has worked, your pedometer will restart once you put the battery back in. If the pedometer is still not working, this means that the unit has now failed due to water damage and must be replaced.

What is the warranty on my pedometer?

WeMüv™ Pedometers have a 90-day, non-transferable manufacturer's limited warranty. The limited 90-day warranty does not cover defects, malfunctions, or failures caused by misuse, unauthorized repairs, modifications or accidental damage. The warranty does not apply to batteries or damage to the product caused by the use of faulty batteries.

How can I secure my pedometer so that it does not get lost?

To provide additional security from the pedometer getting lost, you can thread a string or cord through the hole in the back of the pedometer. This string or cord can then be attached to the user's belt loops or jacket zippers.

My pedometer does not display my step count. Is something wrong?

Every step that you take is being recorded by your pedometer but you do not see an actual step count on your pedometer. What you see instead, is a secret code. Push the large blue button on your pedometer to see the code. Enter this secret code online, to see how many MüvPoints you have accumulated. In order to upload your pedometer points, please follow the steps below.
Login into your account. Click on the "red foot" located on your dock on the lower left hand side of your screen. The image of the pedometer will pop-up. You then enter the pedometer's code and the pedometer points will be added.

Please note the following and ensure you are entering the code correctly:
1. Please refer to the legend underneath the picture of the pedometer when you click on the red foot for assistance in entering your secret code.
2. Ensure that you are not mixing up a number 6 with a letter b.
3. Ensure that you are not mixing up a number 5 with the letter S. The letter S is not a valid letter.
4. A number 1 will always represent the number, uppercase I or lowercase l are not valid characters.
5. A number 0 always represents a zero and never the letter O.
 

Can I transfer my pedometer to another account?

Once a pedometer has been linked to an account (this happens the first time you enter your secret code into an account), the pedometer can only be used with this account thereafter.

I have a question that is not covered here, what do I do?

If you are unable to find the answer to your question in the FAQ section of the WeMüv™ website, our Customer Support team is available to assist you further. Please use our Contact Form to send in a help request.

How do I find my activation/secret code?

If you have activated your pedometer (see question entitled "How do I activate my pedometer" for more details), simply press the blue display key on the front of the pedometer and your secret code will be displayed.

Enter this code online on the WeMüv™ website to become a Traveler or to update your account with your latest physical activity.

Where do I go to login?

In order to login, you need to click on the large "Login" button that is located at the top right of every WeMuv page. You will be brought to the login page where you must enter your username and password.

I am clicking on the "Login" button but nothing is happening.

If you are clicking on the "Play" button but a login screen is not launching, it may be because you have previously clicked the "Play" button and that you have another browser window opened that is already displaying the login screen or the game. Please ensure that you do not have any other browser windows opened at this time. If you do, please close all open browser windows and try clicking on "Play" again.

I have entered the incorrect parent/guardian email address. What do I do?

An automated email is sent to the parent/guardian email address you entered at the time of registration. As with all online games, the parent/guardian must receive the email and confirm the account in order for the player's account to become active.

If you have entered an incorrect email address this means that the parent/guardian will not receive the confirmation email as intented.

To correct this issue, simply go back to the website and re-attempt to login. Until the account has been confirmed by a parent, the system will continue to prompt you to enter a valid parent/guardian email. If you now enter a valid email address, you will receive the confirmation email to that address. Once the parent/guardian has confirmed the account, the player will be able to login and begin playing the game.

My secret code is not working /I am receiving an invalid pin message. What do I do?

If your secret code is not working you may not have entered the correct secret code correctly. Please note the following and ensure you are entering the correct code:

1. Please refer to the legend underneath the picture of the pedometer when you click on the red foot for assistance in entering your secret code.
2. Ensure that you are not mixing up a number 6 with a letter b.
3. Ensure that you are not mixing up a number 5 with the letter S. The letter S is not a valid letter.
4. A number 1 will always represent the number, uppercase I or lowercase l are not valid characters.
5. A number 0 always represents a zero and never the letter O.

If you have verified that you are entering the correct pin but it is still not working, try giving your pedometer a shake to get a new code and then try again.

If your secret code is still not working, please contact Customer Support.
