The only time I take it off is when I shower. I like that it tracks steps, heart rate(resting and fat burn). I can keep up with my sleep patterns and set silent alarms to wake me. It has many features you can set up to fit your lifestyle. Adding friends and joining groups is a very good way to complete challenges and keep me on track with my steps. There is also a quick reminder to get up and move. Love it! I even synced my phone to my Charge 2 to notify me of phone calls received and text messages as well.It does not show the phone # or names associated with the call but that would be helpful. It does show who is texting though and you have to read the text immediately because it does not store your texts. Still love it!

Love using this to log my workouts and also to track my sleep quality. The app on my iPhone shows graphs of my workouts and amount of time in each heart rate zone. For a heart rate monitor, the design is pretty sleek. It’s also easy to use at the gym and the app lets you modify the type of workout and length.

I gave this as a give to my wife. She loves it. Every evening she goes over the steps she has. She really like the function that shows her how well she slept. It is not waterproof, just water resistant. I am not knocking it, we just didn't need it to be waterproof as she is not a swimmer.

This Fitbit is AMAZING!! The size of the face is just right and it’s is surprisingly lightweight. Extremely easy to setup and I love that you can completely customize and personalize it to your liking. I also have tested it on numerous occasions for accuracy and it is spot on! Love it!

I use this item daily for tracker steps, calories, workouts, and even to notify me when I get a text or phone call. I didn't realize how useful this tool would be in my everyday life but now if I don't have it on when it's charging I realize i feel lost without it!

Great product, use it everyday. Lasts a long time on single charge. Wish it was waterproof, have to be careful when washing your hands, and definitely don't take a shower with it on. Also the factory band warped and deformed when I washed it.

The Bottom Line If you don't need water resistance and GPS, the Fitbit Charge 2 is the best overall fitness tracker you can buy. ... Consider the Fitbit Flex 2, a less expensive no-screen waterproof tracker that lacks heart rate.

Tracks my steps, runs, weight training, bootcamp and much more. Love the ease of use and though it's not the most precise recording device it is great motivation and fun to connect with and challenge other Fitbit users. Love the Heartbeat function. Works well and helps me make sure I stay in the correct zone.

Keeps Me Motivated

Wearing the Fitbit keeps me motivated all day. It is great to see how many steps I can walk in a day. Also nice to have the ability to track your activity, sleep, heart rate and water intake. I haven't used the diet tracking yet. I wear it all day, but take it off at night. I log my sleep separately on the Fitbit phone app. I wore it all night once and it did bother me slightly to have something on my wrist for 24 hours. It holds the charge for about a week and takes about 2 hours to recharge. Overall very pleased with this purchase.

This is a very nice fitness tracker, and the fitbit app is one of the best. This device is very comfortable, the screen is nice too. The vibration is great, it wakes me up in the morning. I like the friendly reminders to move, also love getting call, text and calendar notifications on my wrist. Heart rate monitoring seems pretty accurate. Only gripe I have is that the screen is not always on. This is definitely, the perfect fitness tracker for the average person, (someone that exercises, walks, runs, etc...) Looks nice too. I have a 6.5 inch wrist and the small size fits perfectly!!

By far the most usefull device i have came across. This gadget tracks your sleep, steps, workouts, and much more. This product works even when you sweat intensely. The only con is that it is not waterproof.

The Charge 2 is a great fit for daily use, the mobile app is great, the battery life is not an issue and fits comfortably. However you have to keep in mind that it is not waterproof, even if it is somewhat water resistant (sweat and a rain shouldn't harm it) you should consider that having a shower is battery charge time, and if you sweat too much or got caught in a bad rain, dry it thoroughly afterwards.
If you need to track swimming, forget about this one.
Lastly: If you come from the "large" HR think twice about ordering the large Charge 2, as the bands are considerably longer. Your best bet, if in doubt, is to stop by the store and use the markings on the box as guidance.

The Charge2 FitBit was a Christmas present & is a great replacement for my dying Flex. It’s definitely more accurate. However, on a treadmill, I still put it in my pocket as I frequently hold on and if your arm isn’t swinging the bit isn’t accurately counting the steps. I love the stair count feature, & the heart rate monitor. The battery lasts a full 5 days. Very happy with the size of the device. I was interested in the higher functions of the higher end ones but not the size of them. Very happy with my Charge2. I gave 4 stars vs 5 because of the lack of accuracy when ones’ arm is not swinging.

I love the Fitbit, it tracks my steps, sleep, even other workouts I do. It was easy to set up with the app on my phone, only took about 20 minutes total. I like the heart rate monitor also.

Love everything about the Fitbit Charge 2. I have recently lost 30 pounds and Fitbit has been a huge help. I am a 54 year old teacher. This one device helped me track my steps..track my food intake...monitor my heart rate..even provided me with relaxation breathing exercises. I can also be notified when I get an important text but don't have phone on me. Super easy to use. I love how I don't have to track on paper. As a teacher the last thing I need is more paper. I also love that this model is not big and bulky. I can also get other bands to dress it up or keep it casual. I will have this for the rest of my life.

I purchased the lavender rose Fitbit Charge 2 because I thought it would be stylish..it is and more! Not only does the fitbit help me stay fit by tracking my steps, heart beat and other activities, I receive text messages and email notifications..I am really glad that I bought it..
I only have 1 complaint..sometimes my Fitbit won't sync..it takes several tries and turning my cell off and on.

I'm normally a very lazy person but this Fitbit has completely changed that.
I have my Fitbit setup to notify me to get up and walk M-F 9-5 if I have not passed the hourly goal of 250 steps per hour. This is of course an optional feature.
I wear my Fitbit to sleep at night and in the morning I can see how I slept during the night - light sleep, deep sleep, rem sleep, even how often I was awake or restless.
If you are going to go for a walk in a park you are able to track where you go (miles and pace included) by using the app on your phone. Afterwards you can take a break and follow a guided breathing session to help you unwind. You can also keep an eye on your heart rate as this version does have a heart rate monitor built in.
The Fitbit is able to be customized to your liking. On my Fitbit I just want to know how many steps I've taken and what my heart rate is (my main screen), have a breathing guide, heart rate again, and that's it. You can also have how many flights of stairs you've climbed, and other options. All of this is set up using the app on your phone.
Calls and text messages come across the Fitbit as well.
I am definitely very happy with this purchase. On days where I go for walks I look forward to, and am extremely motivated by, the fireworks display that goes off when you hit the daily recommended 10,000 mile walk. I also like seeing my different badges of achievement come through.
If you are struggling to get up and get moving get this Fitbit! It motivates me and if could motivate you :)

I’ve been looking around for an activity tracker but one that wasn’t overly expensive nor came with extra bells and whistles that I didn’t need. Several of my coworkers and friends owned Fitbit Charge 2s and to them, they enjoyed them. I like that it tracks your sleep patterns as well calorie intake with the app. The setup as well isn’t difficult at all. All in all I highly recommend getting a Fitbit
