Fitbit
This is a place where I will talk about my experience with the Fitbit.
My have two main dislikes of my first Fitbit (Inspire HR).
#1
- The alarm, chrono, and timekeeping functions are weak. -- It takes three swipes up to even get to the timer function (four swipes for alarms). I can set a timer or alarm on my Timex in under 3-5 seconds.
#2
- Notifications and smart-phone interactions are weak. -- Notification pop-ups often disappear and are not able to be pulled back again. They are also hard to read and you can't respond.
The android application for Fitbit has been a mostly good experience. There is plenty of graphics and charts to see in relation to my heart rate, weight, and steps taken.
