Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the vívofit Fitness Band + Heart Rate's accurate heart rate monitor, ease of use, and long battery life. Many appreciate the step and sleep tracking capabilities, along with its water resistance. However, some users wish it had a backlight and find the app less intuitive than others. The device's size was also noted as somewhat bulky by a few customers.

    This is a great device that comes with a lot more than just step counter. It also came with heart rate device and it works with their Android app perfectly.

    Received for Christmas 2014, and been holding off giving a review until I had some run time on it. Pro’s – Time, Date, No Recharging, Steps, Heart Rate, Activities, Easy to use, sleep tracking, comfortable to wear, cost Con’s – Software interface and Sync is not the best Garmin has had some Sync issues, but I am not one to sync other than once a day. Interface and link to MyFitnessPal is spotty. Heart rate monitor is chest strap and for me seems to be accurate with manual checks. Putting a drop of water on the band on each side of the monitor where it contacts your skin really helps in having the monitor not drop out. I sync once a day through computer with the USB ant. Have Mobil app but seems to work better through the computer. Extra closure on the band keeps it secure and is nice feature. I am not a fitness fanatic and sure for serious workout athletics there are better devices but for price and all this does it is real good. Having a device that I can see the time was a big plus. For the average person who wants to track their information I would recommend this. If not for some of the sync issues this would have been a 5.

    Originally had one without the heart monitor. Got this one instead. It is impressive and does exactly what it was needed for.

    I wear the Garmin vivofit everyday. Heart monitor is an extra strap you have to wear around your chest. I don't remember seeing that in the description when I bought it but I looked at quite a few different ones before purchasing this one. I have not worn the chest band. Seems Like to much trouble.

    Never take mine off. The surface is scratch and on another band but the device itself is still running strong and syncs to app when I tell it to.

    This product is ok, except for it some times counts my arm movement as steps. You have to wear the heart monitor on your ribs and I hate that it doesn't come from my wrist When comparing to others it said it would alert for text and calls when comparing, sadly it does not.

    This has been a good motivator for my wife and I to get some exercise . The red bar let,s us know if we have been sitting too long. Also by settings daily goals, we encourage each other to exercise in order to meet our goal
