I got an inexpensive wrist fitness tracker ($25) and I noticed that it doesn't record my steps when I'm walking around the supermarket, holding on to a shopping cart. I get most of my exercise this way. Is this also true of the Fitbit?

it is true for my fitbit. I either tie it to my shoe or put it in my pants pocket. Both work but tied to the shoe works best. Also good if your getting steps in using a treadmill

I got a Letscom Fitness tracker from Amazon. Has great reviews and I am impressed with this $25 device. Tracks steps, hr, sleep and buzzes for a phone call. You can get different bands. Easy to charge

knuckles491, any of the trackers go by movement and if the device is stable it won’t record. What I do is just pull the cart by the end and keep swinging my arm that has the tracker on it

I left my phone and home by mistake the other day and it was fine since I had my cellular watch with me. Nice. I haven't yet activated the cellular on the watch. I was thinking of switching to Verizon but I'm not sure my new phone is compatible. When I get around to deciding, if it is Verizon, I think I will take a shared plan that ropes in my phone, watch and iPad which should save me a couple of bucks a month. |
