# Adding Friends & Commenting

Learn how to interact with the people you care about, follow their progress, and cheer each other on.

Adding friends in Be Well makes it easier to interact with the people you care about, follow their progress, and cheer each other on. Once you're connected, you can view their activity in your feed, comment on their entries, and share your own progress along the way.

### Adding a Friend

#### On the Mobile App (Android & iOS)

### Commenting and Engaging with the Activity Feed

Your Activity Feed (the **Sitewide** view) is where you see the ongoing progress of others in your challenge and interact with them. Encouraging one another helps everyone perform better.

#### Viewing the Activity Feed

1.  Open the **Sitewide** option (the globe icon) in your program menu.
2.  In your feed, you'll see usernames alongside their steps, activities, distance, and journal entries for a given date.
3.  Use the buttons above your feed to refine what you see — for example, showing only entries with photos, or only entries from friends.

The **My Program** summary gives you program-wide statistics, including a seven-day rolling average of steps for your five most active members and a chart of average performance over time.

#### Leaving a Comment

To comment on someone's entry, click the **Comment** button beneath their name and add your message. Then click **Submit**.
