    When purchasing this item, the box said that it linked with iPhone; however, it doesn't mention that with an iPhone, you can only do basics with the band. You can "see" texts but can't respond. You can "see" who is calling but can't answer through band - you can only dismiss or hang up. It lets you know you have FaceBook or Messenger items but you can't read them. You can only enable those features if you have a Microsoft phone!

    It's perfect for someone who doesn't want to use it as a watch. The time doesn't stay lite.

    Garmin VivoSmart good but . . .

    After my FitBit Force was recalled, I was on the hunt for a good replacement. I tried several others (including Pebble and Vivofit) but found all lacking in comparison to the FitBit. My first impression of the VivoSmart, however, was that this could be a reasonable replacement. After about a month of use, I still think that, but have some reservations. Pros: - I like that this unit links with Bluetooth to my iPhone and provides texts, notifications and caller ID. - I like the silent alarm feature. - Step count seems reasonably accurate. Cons: -Syncing of activity data does not seem to be automatic (as on FitBit). - iPhone app is marginal at best. - Dont like automatic adjustment of goals. - Guide says you can set one-time alarms but have not seen how to do it. - text on screen is hard to read (font issue). - I miss the stairs feature of my FitBit. Overall, this is a good activity tracker. That said, I'm waiting to try the soon to be released new FitBit watch.

    I LOVED my Garmin VivoSmart but it was not very durable. I guess that's why they seem to have been discontinued. The concept was exactly what I wanted in a tracker with great smart features but I went through 3 of them due to losing pixels on the screen. So sad because I LOVED it and haven't found anything else I like as much.

    I went from a jawbone up to this and this thing is fantastic! I wasn't sure I wanted to spend the $ on it, but after just a couple of days I was glad that I did. The best part is being able to see who is calling and reading texts in a meeting and no one knows any better! :)

    Best overall tracker so far

    This is my third tracker band, I have used the jawbone up24, and the polar flow. Really liked the jawbone data collection and interface, but durability was terrible ( I killed and exchanged 4 of them, I think mostly sweat damage) . The polar flow was much more durable, and completely water proof, but felt clunky ,had very poor battery life and the interface was mediocre. The garmin is the best of both worlds, durable, waterproof and good iPhone interface with the added bonus of texts and calls transferred to the band.

    I bought this for my son who walks many miles a day. He really appreciated the gift and the information it gives him about his exercise is impressive. It is so much more than that - he even shared with me how he found his phone with his Garmin band. Because of Bluetooth capabilities it can alert you of calls and texts. It can do everything!!

    Love this smart band. I purchased an lg g watch urbane a few months ago and it turned out to be way too uncomfortable. The Garmin stays on me through the night and even wakes me up in the morning. Gives you all the info you need, who's calling, who's texting, a brief text preview and a few health related things like steps and calories.
