A clinic gave me one and I'm not comfortable with apps, being tracked, or giving out private info. How much data does Fitbit collect during and after setup? Can I use it without connecting to the internet after setup? null

Fitbit app links to your Fitbit by Bluetooth. As long as you don't have Bluetooth activated on your phone, the app can not collect any data.

I've used FitBit for 4 years now. It's usage is thru Bluetooth. But if you don't have unlimited data then turn your blue tooth off during the day. Turn it on only to sync at the end of the day that way it logs all your steps and food intake etc. If you turn it off it won't affect anything. The app is safe, unlike others.

Tim, they already have your data. Do yourself a favor and use apps that you like. Anyone who wants your data, and has the ability to do any thing malicious with it, could easily get the data.

No, if you are that paranoid then you should not use it.
