It's probably better to spend a little more, to get something reliable. Everybody seems to be really happy with their Jawbone Up Move, maybe you could try one of those?
I had issues with that. The one one my phone is the best by far for me. It doesn't count while in the car and I'm hardly ever without it lol. Think it's trial and error which sucks especially if you pay a fair price for one. I'd suggest looking at the reviews before getting different one perhaps.
i have one on my phone aswell and that counts when i,m driving but i think it mite be because its in my pocket back at work tomo so i,m going to keep it out of pocket when i,m driving and see if it counts
I did not even think about that I thought one day I had done a lot of steps and wondered why!! Perhaps that is the reason , I will have to check mine .
Thanks for the info although how we work it out I don't know
I don't bother with them. My stride is tiny, 10,000 steps with an average stride is about 4-5 miles so my aim is to walk that. I use mapometer.com to work out how far I walk on new walks.
