egghead Posted April 8, 2022 Posted April 8, 2022 I don't use a fitness tracker, however, I am thinking to buy a fitness tracker. What brand or product do you suggest for me? melanie_marie27 1
Justin11 Posted April 8, 2022 Posted April 8, 2022 I don't own it, but when I go to the fitness hub, I do get to use one there, to help me keep in check of my fitness practices.
Empire Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 No fitness tracker is going to be accurate on calories burned. however the FitBit. It's great for encouraging me to get more steps in. I like having daily goals and trying to beat them. It's also interesting to see trends, for example, I can tell that I was stressed at work in March because I was barely moving. But April has been much more active!
Darth Posted April 20, 2022 Posted April 20, 2022 I have a Samsung Galaxy Fit2 which I bought just because it was on sale and it was available at a great price. I've been using it almost every day as a sort of way to just remind me to stand up from time to time since I am working from home. It's sort of a temporary thing until I figure out whether or not I want a smart watch
killamch89 Posted June 16, 2022 Posted June 16, 2022 Nope - not at all. I have a Galaxy Smartwatch but I have disabled all the fitness features because I don't really need them.
Heatman Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 I don't use it at all. The only thing that's fitness related which I make use of is my Samsung Health App that I used to monitor how many steps I make in a day. My default target it 10,000 steps everyday.

What brand or product do you suggest for me? Are you just looking to count steps/calories burned, or are you more into heart rate, calories and activity tracked throughout the day? If it's the former, I'd say Sportline. I always stick with Sportline. 🙂👍🚶♀️

As for the later, I think that I have that covered up by hitting the gym at least twice times in a week. Even though my gym subscription is quite costly but it's worth every penny paid for it because they have incredible training tools.

Honestly, I have the Samsung Health App on both my phone and smartwatch but I never use it. I just don't need all that information...
Shortie Posted February 19, 2023 Posted February 19, 2023 I don't have any specific fitness tracker on my phone but it does have a built in fitness tracker with the health app that I have on my phone and one of the features it has is to track how many steps you make each day. I find this useful if I am honest so that I can try and get my 10,000 steps in on the day if I am feeling up to it and I can keep track of that with my phone. Usually most phones have a built in health app that have a lot of good features for fitness. Smokey 1
Smokey Posted February 19, 2023 Posted February 19, 2023 *Looks down at his beer belly* Uhmmm nope, can't say I do. 😛 I do have a smartwatch though (Galaxy Watch 5 Pro) so it does keep me somewhat active by getting me up and going at times. Shortie 1

I had considered getting a smart watch myself as my mum has one and she loves it and is able to do so much with it but I haven't had the funds to be able to do so. Would love to be able to jump on one though in the future if I am able to. Smokey 1

Anders Posted May 1, 2023 Posted May 1, 2023 I have what I like to call a dumb smart watch, and I love it. It's called the Amazfit Neo, and it's basically an old school Casio with fitness features. I does not have most of the features that a modern smart watch has, but it tells the time, shows me how many steps I've walked, and the battery lasts for about a month between charges.

Fair enough, I have a galaxy watch and I shut off most of the fitness features because I don't need them. I like it for things like notifying me who is calling without having to take my phone out of my pocket when I'm out and about or responding to messages.
