Your Lifetime Apple count tracks how many Apples you've collected since the beginning of the feature. This is the amount that appears on the Apple icon at the Level Complete screen and is the count that is used when applying to Clubs with minimum Apple requirements. It is not impacted by if you're in a Club or not.



There is also a seasonal Apple count, which tracks how many Apples you've accumulated while in your Club during the season. This starts at 0 when you join the Club.

At the start of the week (Monday morning, Pacific Time), the seasonal Apples collected by all club members are totaled, and that number is used to determine the Club's seasonal reward, and if it changes tiers. Then a new season starts, and everyone's seasonal Apples are set back to 0.
If you leave a Club, your seasonal Apple count will return to 0. Your lifetime Apple count will not be impacted.
