Customers are saying

Customers regard the Alta Activity Tracker (Large) favorably for its sleep tracking, ease of use, and comfortable size. Many appreciate the long battery life and stylish design, along with features like step tracking and notifications. However, some users wish for a heart rate monitor and improved water resistance. A few also noted challenges with the clasp mechanism.

    Bought this item for my wife. We decided to go with this model instead of shelling out 20 more for the heartbeat tracker. She loves how simple it is and got to choose her favorite color. The build quality is good, I could see this standing up easily over the years. Overall great product!

    I love this Fitbit after upgrading from the Fitbit Charge HR. I really like the text message feature. The best feature is the reminder to make you move every hour. This little band keeps me motivated and it's very comfortable.

    Great motivator just like the Fit Charge. Like that you can change wrist bands, but the charge on the battery only lasts maximum of 3 days, but that's OK as long as you remember to charge it. We charge our fits while taking our showers and dressing in the morning then it's good to go.

    It has really motivated me to keep moving and to make sure I walk a minimum of10,000 step or more. I didn't realize how restless my sleep is. People ask me if it's a Fitbit and if I like it. I tell them I really recommend it and really like it and of course tell them all about it.

    After returning two Fitbit Charges, the salesperson convinced me to give the Alta a try. I love it!! It's been completely reliable, comfortable to wear, pretty to look at and I haven't had the first bit of trouble with it.

    Fit Bit for all

    The Alta is a great fit for everyone. Not too many bells and whistle that it is unusable, and not too few where it just becomes a glorified pedometer. The most exciting thing for me is the reminder to move and the sleep tracker. These two things were key for me.

    I love the functionality of the Alta but I have had multiple occasions where the wristband disconnects from the unit unexpectedly. It's supposed to snap on both ends of the tracker itself and for whatever reason the top side sometimes disconnects by itself. Annoying as heck.

    Love this Fitbit Alta. I can connect with friends and seeing what they are doing thru out the day keeps me motivated and on track. I love that I can get my text and phone calls thru the Alta. Best Buy had a very competitive price and supper easy to find help in selecting the Alta.

    I love my new Fitbit. I had a Garmin that I got only about 8 months ago. I never wore it near water but the face was all foggy and was hard to see. It finally just quit working. So decided to try the Fitbit!! Love it so far. Looks and works great. Exactly what I was looking for.

    Fit Bit Alta was purchased for my wife and it does everything it should and very stylish. Only problem is with the charger, It is super cheap and we have already had to call fit bit twice to have them send us a new one. Hopefully they will fix this as it was poorly designed!

    I bought this for my wife as a gift from our grandson and she really likes it. Good entry level for a device of this nature. I would recommend it to anyone that just needs this level of monitor. My wife has called the help line for assistance and they were very helpful

    i bought this for a friend who is trying to lose weight. she has been wanting one for a while now and wouldn't purchase for herself, so when she lost thirty lbs, i wanted to reward her and show her just how proud i was of her dedication and hard work. she loved it.

    I like the Fitbit Alta design more than previous models. It is not too large and it has a nice design. It is accurate and works very well. I have had some sync issues with my new Galaxy S7 but hopefully these issues will be fixed soon. Overall, I am very happy with this product.

    Enjoy this upgraded version much more then my last one. Sleep mode works very well. Love the screen and what can be displayed on it, especially seeing incoming phone and or the start of a text message. Excited to get different bands to get a different look but haven't yet.

    Great, but band is difficult

    We bought several of these for our teens. The fitbit itself works great, the bands are so difficult to put on that the kids always need help, and we struggle with them. It's great that they are secure, but you MUST have very strong hands to get the band to clip.

    Fitbit is a great to keep a person moving. My entire family have one, and we are always challenging each other. It is a great tool to motivate yourself to be active. I strongly recommend. The only thing that I would like to add to the Fitbit Alta is the heart rate monitor.

    Awesome Tracker

    I love this tracker. I have a fitbit zip, but wanted wearable model. It works great and looks great. The only reason I gave it 4 starts instead of 5 is because of the text notifications. When I have it connected to my iPhone to get notifications, it drains my iPhone battery.

    The Alta is slimmer than the HR charge I had previously. Has all the same features except stairs and heart rate, but I am able to see texts and phone calls on it. I love the fact that I can change out the bands to match my outfit as well! This Fitbit fits my lifestyle!!

    I bought this in March, and I love it! I use it every day; the app consolidates many other apps I was using for the same purposes, and it is user-friendly. It's fun to give my friends challenges, and to watch the activities and steps add up throughout the day!

    I gave this to my husband. He loves the fitness tracking. He also enjoys seeing the text messages on the screen, as well as the phone calls. When he reaches his goal, it's like a party on his wrist! The only downside is the wristband is a little difficult to latch.
