Q: QuestionDo you need to use this with a device/phone?

Asked 9 years ago by Laura.

• A:Answer Laura, This is a gray area, To keep track of your steps to see if you are doing better worse, or in between. Then you would need to download the app/program either onto your smartphone or computer, so that you can sync the vivofit and upload the information, even do competitions with friends, etc. If you don't want to do that and just want to track how many steps you do and write the information down yourself, then no you don't have to download to a device/phone. But that is also the way that the vivofit gets it's own software updates should it be needed as well. So that would ultimately be up to you.

Q: Questiondoes the wrist band stay on well ? And will the small band fit a 9 year old wrist well?

Asked 9 years ago by dawn.

This question was asked about the related product: Garmin - vívofit Fitness Band - Teal

• A:Answer Yes, the vivofit is sold with a vivokeeper that is designed to keep the band from slipping off. The small band size is 120-175 mm (4.72-6.89 inches), so you would need to measure the wrist to check for fit. \tw/
