AYA - Your Fitness Journey 3.0.6

The Chickasaw Nation introduces AYA, a distinctive step-tracking application designed to integrate cultural education with personal fitness. AYA, derived from the Chickasaw word meaning "to go" or "to journey," offers users an engaging experience that combines physical activity with cultural storytelling. As users advance toward healthier habits, they are guided by a fictional Chickasaw character who shares narratives rooted in history and tradition, enriching the walking experience.

Throughout their AYA journey, users have the opportunity to foster a sense of community by competing for rankings on leaderboards, uncovering concealed Chickasaw artifacts, exploring historically significant routes, and visiting culturally important sites—all while cultivating a renewed connection to wellness and heritage.

Within the app, step counts can be synchronized via compatible devices and services, including Fitbit (by linking your Fitbit account) and Google Fit through user authorization, ensuring accurate tracking of daily activity.

AYA is designed for users aged 13 and above, emphasizing both physical health and cultural awareness in its approach.
