How does the social feed work?

Updated May 12, 2026 Employee

The social feed in Vantage Fit is your company's wellness community hub. It's where colleagues share achievements, post fitness updates, and cheer each other on. Think of it as a social media feed dedicated to your workplace wellness community.

Where to Find the Feed

Tap the Community tab at the bottom of the app. The social feed is the default view, showing a chronological stream of posts from people across your organization.

What You'll See in the Feed

The feed includes several types of content:

Fitness Posts

Colleagues sharing their workouts, GPS-tracked runs, step achievements, and other fitness activities. These posts often include distance, duration, and route maps.

Achievement Posts

Automated posts celebrating milestones -- things like "Sarah completed the Spring Step Challenge" or "Raj hit a 30-day workout streak." These are generated by the platform when someone reaches a notable milestone.

Announcements

Company-wide or group-specific announcements from HR admins, such as new challenge launches, wellness program updates, or motivational messages.

Shared Activities

When someone completes a GPS workout or logs a notable activity and chooses to share it, it appears in the feed with their stats and any comments they added.

Interacting With Posts

You can engage with any post in the feed:

Like

Tap the like button (heart or thumbs-up icon) to show appreciation for a colleague's post. Quick, easy, and always welcome.

Comment

Tap the comment icon to leave a message on a post. Comments support:

  • Rich text formatting
  • Mentions -- Type @ followed by a colleague's name to tag them
  • Hashtags -- Use # to tag topics (e.g., #MorningRun, #StepChallenge)

Reply

You can reply to individual comments, creating threaded conversations under a post.

Tip: A quick word of encouragement on a colleague's post can go a long way. The social feed thrives when people actively engage with each other's achievements.

Shared With VantageCircle R&R Feed

The social feed in Vantage Fit is shared with the VantageCircle Rewards & Recognition feed. This means:

  • Fitness achievements and posts from Vantage Fit are visible to colleagues who use the VantageCircle R&R platform
  • R&R recognitions and appreciation posts from VantageCircle may also appear in your Vantage Fit feed
  • This creates a unified social experience across both platforms

Note: The shared feed means your fitness posts may be visible to colleagues who use VantageCircle but not Vantage Fit. Keep this in mind when sharing -- it's a broader audience than just Vantage Fit users.

Posting Your Own Content

You can share your own updates to the feed:

  1. Tap the create post button (usually a "+" or compose icon in the Community tab)
  2. Write your message
  3. Optionally attach photos or activity data
  4. Post to the feed

Your post will be visible to colleagues based on your organization's visibility settings.

Feed Etiquette

  • Celebrate others -- Like and comment on your colleagues' achievements
  • Be genuine -- Share your real progress, including the tough days
  • Stay supportive -- The feed is a positive space. Encourage, don't compete negatively
  • Use hashtags thoughtfully -- They help others find relevant content
