Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer software technology, and in particular to an application software system that integrates the functions of a pedometer and a music player to realize the exchange of walking steps for music VIP rights. Background Art
[0002] Current pedometer apps focus on step counting, advertising engagement, and small red envelope rewards, offering a limited functionality that fails to inspire long-term user engagement. Music streaming apps, on the other hand, rely on paid subscriptions or single-track purchases to unlock VIP benefits like ad-free playback, high-quality sound, and exclusive content. Existing integrated pedometer and music streaming products operate solely on a user interface overlay, lacking a proven "step-to-benefits" redemption logic. This prevents users from gaining actual entertainment benefits through exercise, leading to a lack of user engagement. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Build a closed-loop ecosystem of "exercise-accumulation-exchange", exchange music VIP membership or single song rights through walking steps, encourage users to exercise healthily, improve software usage stickiness, and expand the dissemination channels of music content.
[0004] Technical Solution
[0005] 1. Step counting module
[0006] Data collection: Use the device's built-in sensors (such as accelerometers) or external devices to collect walking data in real time. Set a daily effective step threshold (20,000 steps by default). Steps exceeding the threshold will not be included in the redeemable step pool.
[0007] Exercise report: Generates visual reports based on walking data including distance, calorie consumption, and exercise duration to assist users in managing health data.
[0008] 2. Music playback module
[0009] Dual-mode playback: supports online music platform API docking and local music import to meet diverse playback needs.
[0010] VIP rights system:
[0011] Basic benefits: ad-free playback, lossless sound quality, exclusive / paid album access;
[0012] Single redemption library: exclusive / paid singles that need to be redeemed through step counts, supporting unlimited downloads or online playback within a specified period;
[0013] Personalized recommendations: Generate sports playlists and health-themed playlists based on playback history, step count data, and preference algorithms.
[0014] 3. Step redemption module
[0015] Rule presets:
[0016] VIP Member: 3.6 million cumulative steps can be redeemed for a 30-day membership and enjoy VIP benefits across all platforms;
[0017] Single song redemption: Consume 200,000 steps to redeem 30 days of online playback and 1 day of unlimited download rights for a single song.
[0018] Operation process: The user selects the target rights and interests, the system verifies the number of steps, deducts and activates the rights, and supports multi-terminal account synchronization.
[0019] 4. User interaction module
[0020] Interface design:
[0021] Step statistics interface: real-time display of step progress, cumulative redeemable steps and exercise report entrance;
[0022] Music playback interface: integrated playback control, sound quality selection and step progress display;
[0023] Redemption interface: provides rights list, single song search and secondary confirmation mechanism to ensure operational security.
[0024] Beneficial effects
[0025] 1. User experience: Provide non-paying users with a "training for benefits" channel, lower the usage threshold, and improve the accessibility of music entertainment.
[0026] 2. Behavioral incentives: Through the positive feedback of "step count-equity", the average daily active time increased by 30% and the weekly retention rate increased by 25%.
[0027] 3. Commercial value: Highly sticky users attract advertising and copyright cooperation, forming a "traffic-monetization" closed loop and extending the user usage cycle.
[0028] 4. Social value: Promote the integration of healthy lifestyles and digital entertainment, and promote the dissemination of music works and the upgrading of cultural consumption. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0029] Figure 1 :System architecture diagram
[0030] Diagram content: Displays the system's core modules and data flow.
[0031] Pedometer statistics module: collects walking data in real time through the device's built-in sensors (such as accelerometers) or external devices, sets a daily effective step threshold (the default is 20,000 steps, and the excess is not included in the redeemable step pool); generates a visual exercise report based on walking data that includes distance, calorie consumption, and exercise time to assist users in managing health data.
[0032] Redemption logic: 200,000 steps are required to redeem a single song (after redemption, you can enjoy 30 days of online playback and 1 day of unlimited download rights); a cumulative 3.6 million steps can be redeemed for a 30-day VIP membership, enjoying VIP benefits across all platforms.
[0033] Music playback module: integrates online / local playback functions, provides VIP-exclusive content (no ads, lossless sound quality, exclusive albums / playlists, paid content, limited-time events); sets VIP single resources that require step redemption; recommends playlists based on playback history, step data and preference algorithms, and supports local music import.
