1. Move
Start a Walk or Run in Marchh and carry the iPhone throughout the activity. With the necessary permission, Marchh receives location samples and calculates a route, distance, duration, pace and related activity information.
Movement should be genuine. Fake-location tools, GPS spoofing, automated movement and fabricated or duplicated activities undermine the shared map and can be rejected.
2. Close
A territory route needs geometry that encloses an area. In practical terms, the route must come back around rather than remain an open line. Plan a lawful loop using public streets, paths or spaces that are appropriate for walking or running.
GPS drift can make the recorded path differ from the path on the ground. A visually close route may still fail validation when the accepted samples do not create usable geometry or location quality is poor.
3. Claim
When Marchh accepts the activity and its covered area, eligible geometry can become virtual territory on the shared map. Ownership may be associated with a public profile and may change under Marchh's territory mechanics.
A claim can be rejected or adjusted because of accuracy, integrity, minimum activity, geometry or conflict rules. Marchh does not publish manipulation-sensitive thresholds.
What territory changes—and what it does not
Territory changes the state of the Marchh map. It gives a route a persistent game consequence beyond the activity itself.
It does not change the physical world. A Marchh polygon creates no property right, access permission or authority over a location, and it never makes an unsafe or restricted route acceptable.
Questions people ask
Does every activity create territory?
No. A completed activity does not guarantee a claim. Route geometry, location quality, activity integrity, territory conflicts and other Marchh validation rules can affect eligibility.
Is Marchh territory real property?
No. Marchh territory is entirely virtual. It creates no ownership, possession, access permission or other legal right over a physical place.
