The real story here is "how the hell did Dick's Sporting Goods get to #3 and how can I get me some of their magic dust?"

Well, apparently they give you some miniscule rewards points for meeting step or activity goals. I told my wife who was immediately intrigued. Pump out more apps that appeal to women.
This does not check out for me intuitively. You are telling me Dick's sporting goods with 800 stores was able to get to the top of the app store leaderboard, which companies spend a lot of effort and money on, against the largest AI behemoths, by giving rewards on activity goals? I think it has to be something else.
United healthcare does that too and it’s great because it’s just straight cash on a visa gift card. Like 1.25 a week for just doing your normal stuff and more for hitting other goals. Easy to rig too…
