Fit bit or ???

[Nanny1086]

Hi all ,the tracker on my iPod ( I wear something on my shoe ) that my son in law set up For me isn't working ,and it only tracks when I'm on the treadmill ,, , so I'm thinking about asking my family to buy me a fit bit or something for christmas ,,so if anyone can reccomend anything good I'd love to hear from you ,thanks in advance ,

Not sure Nanny why don't you ask for a watch that counts your steps, I know when I've walked enough I can't breath lol

[Nanny1086 in reply to onamission]

Hi onamission ,sadly that wouldn't record the bike or rower ,or the weights machine I really need one that covers everything ,,,,, but liking your thinking ,, ,, .keep breathing onamission,night ,

My Fitbit only tracks when I am actually out walking and doesn't record when I am on the elliptical. Maybe they have models that do but the one I have does not,.

[Nanny1086 in reply to jackdup]

The app I've got on my iPod is the same ,but I need to record other exersise such as bike ,

[jackdup in reply to Nanny1086]

I agree and wish mine would capture the other exercises I do as well. Let us know what you get and how you like it or how well it works.

[Nanny1086 in reply to jackdup]

I will let you know ,but as they are expensive,I think I'm going to see if my daughter would like to buy it for my Christmas present ,🏃‍♀️🏋️‍♀️🚴‍♀️

[jackdup in reply to Nanny1086]

They definitely are expensive so hopefully you will get for Christmas.

Hi sassy ,I don't suppose you know where she bought it or which one it is ? Xx

[sassy59]

I will find out for you Nanny. Xxx

[sassy59 in reply to sassy59]

Hi Nanny, around £100 from Very but go on fit bit website as you can get cheaper ones. Depends what you want. Good luck. Xxxx

[mmzetor in reply to sassy59]

I have a fit bit flex which works on the treadmill but not on the rower bike or weights, but I can enter them as exercise on the app on my iPad. I'm not sure I would recommend it as after 5 I still don't find it easy to clip on but it works well

[Nanny1086 in reply to Twoose]

Hi ,I don't really fancy taking my iPad to the gym ,that's why I had my daughter's old iPod and son in law bought something that fits in my trainer ,,, and records it to iPod , but that's just the treadmill to , but I need ine that covers other items like bike /rower etc ,good look at the gym ,

I have a fitbit alto (I think). it measures steps, sleep activity over 15 minutes and tells the time lol! I find it useful to spur me on towards my targets

[Nanny1086 in reply to diesel12]

Hi thanks but I really need one that will work on most exercises like the bike or rower etc ,,,,,good luck with those targets ,

[mmzetor]

oh I get it now sassy must have forgot to put a dot after the 1

[Nanny1086]

Hi ,thanks ,I checked it out , looks ideal ,, just forwarded the link to son in law to check it out ,, like the idea of swapping the bracelet ,,,

[Joy123]

I'm very interested in this as have a Fitbit on my Christmas list too but don't know if they're any good. Joy.

[Nanny1086 in reply to Joy123]
