SYNC - Calorie Activity Tracker - White

I purchased the pedometer to help me track my exercise. I have an iPod Nano, but it's too large and isn't the best pedometer. I never could get logged into Nike+. I saw the Sync series at Best Buy and purchased the activity tracker. The docs said it would work with some Anderoid devices, iPhones and iPads. I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII and an iPad, so I figured it would be just fine. After purchase, I found the SIII compatibility would come in September, and the Sync would not work with my ancient iPad 1. It needs at least an iPad 2. Just this week, the upgrade to Map My Walk for the Samsung was posted, and after a couple of false starts, the data for the last 40 exercise periods found its way from the Sync to the website. The pedometer is accurate most of the time for me, though I found if I hand hold it, steps aren't counted well. When I walk, I wear jeans and clip the Sync to my watch pocket. On the treadmill, I clip it to my workout shorts. As long as it's on my waist, it agrees with the data on the treadmill, and it agrees with the data on my iPod Nano as well. Now that it's working with Map My Walk, I'm finally happy with it.

The product does work and it has a motion sensor that it uses to count, but it does turn off and the instructions are more than a little vague in that area. Also the product doesn't work with a lot of newer phones, you really don't find this out until you open the box. Have yet to use it and have had it for over a month.

Easy to use, worked great except when it randomly reset itself, even if I had not uploaded the data to MapMyWalk. When I did uploads, it was easy. Discouraging to lose a whole week's steps tho.

Good price for item. Setup took some time but once it was setup it worked great. Keep in mind that if you move with it in your hand it was count your steps also.

Easy to use device that helps keep you motivated. A little bulky but its also easy to read.

Great tool used with a smart phone App, easy to use and great accuracy.

The device is easy to use and it helps you keep track of your steps and your exercise.

I love the accuracy, the wearability, the amount of info, that it's programmable to my weight and step. It's Sync feature to Map My Walk.. has been a problem.
