Misfit - Flash Activity Tracker - Fuchsia

I love the concept of this item and I really was happy to see my sleep patterns. However, after about 1 to 2 weeks of use it will no longer sync to my phone. I have tried what the company has suggested but I am unable to get it to sync. Would love to have it working again. I miss using it!

I picked up my Misfit Flash the first day I could find one in a Best Buy store, I've been eyeing this since the announcement. This is a great product for anyone who wants to track their personal activities without looking just like everyone else. The nature of the device allows you to stand out a bit, the color choices, the style (wear it as a watch or a clip, maybe a necklace if they release similar accessories). The watchband is made in such a way that it would comfortable fit me (a 200+ pound man) but also would fit and look fine on a smaller framed person. It is made of a plastic material which doesn't bother the skin. I haven't used the clip much other than to test it, but I can say that it held fine during testing. The Flash itself works great, stays into the clip and the watchband very securely. Paired with my iOS device with no problem and is tracking me quite while. I've already had one person stop me and ask about the device, even in the matte black finish it's eye catching.

I was looking for a fitness fracker and sleep monitor. I was really curious about how much sleep I was getting. This does the trick for a fraction of others like it. It was very good at telling me deep and light sleep, and I feel it accurately tracks my steps each day. I like that it sets goals for you based on your activity. My only disappointment was that it says it's water resistant to 40 meters. It is NOT. I tried swimming with it and it ruined it. If they could get that fixed, it would really be about perfect! It does not track your pulse or heart rate. You will also need to download the free app. The app is compatible with the My Fitness Pal App, too. I recommend the black version. The white one shows too much dirt.

Got this as a gift for my wife. She loved it. She had it a month before the band broke. Good luck finding another. They have them for the shine, but not the flash. Than it stopped working a week after that. Changed the battery and now it won't shut of, sync, or work. Working with Misfit about a replacement......Hoping for the best. I'll update as to the outcome.

I really enjoyed using my misfit. I enjoyed tracking my fitness and my progress. However, I've had my misfit since the end of May and wore it all the time when I ran/worked out, but yesterday it broke. The part that encapsules the actual device split in two :( I cannot use it anymore. It seems like one month of wearing it should not result in it breaking so easily. I'm disappointed.

This tracker is very affordable and does all the major functions you could want. It keeps track of steps taken, calories burned, and even hours of sleep. A simple app for the phone or computer lets you view your results. I find that every day, I am able to figure out what makes a good and productive workout. It's fun, like a game.

Tracks activities like running, walking and swimming. It also tracks sleep. cons: sleep tracking does not seem to work for me but it does work on girlfriends Flash. device is waterproof but not steam proof, can't use it in saunas or hot baths. manual is very minimal.

The activity tracker itself, though basic, seems to be a good one. However, the wrist strap broke after only approximately 26 hours of wearing it - yep, the next day after I first put it on. I contacted the company and they send a replacement, which I just opened, and the replacement strap is broken! There is a piece broken out of the band, and the piece was not in the package, so it appears that the company sent out a broken band! Very frustrating!
