Fitbug App Reviews

great app, works better than website. wish I could select dates better. Sleep tracker is neat

Great price, easy to use! Had mine about a week and enjoy the way it keeps track of my activity. Havent put my food intake in yet so I cant comment on that. Good value for the money!

I like my Fitbug orb so far. But the app is lacking. If you use the online tools you have a full database to add your food. This is a vital part of weight loss. The app needs this feature! I should be able to do all of it from my phone which is with me at all times. I dont wNt to have to open my web browser to enter my food.

I was going to give it three stars until I started this review and it kicked me out three times! Nutrition from the phone app would be better. Its a pain to go home and remember what you ate and add it thru the website.

Just got my fit bug its great just wish it had a food link to it.

Does a good job to keep track of steps.

Less accurate and app is buggy. Web app almost useless.

Well I like that theres nothing to try and read just the one button that transmits. But cant get the sleep duration to work. I have to press the button different from instructions to get it to transmit. I will say though it is accurate. And I dont like the Webbsite, entering food portions doesnt work right.

This app has been great . It has everything I need from the steps , calories , sleep , and miles . It has other features for your exercise and other things . Its not difficult to use which is always a plus . Might not be the best app out there for some but it certainly works for me .

Like others I dont care for the nutrition on here and certainly that I cant do it with the app but I like that it works well with Myfitnesspal so that works for me. I especially wanted it for the sleep and that part is very sensitive. I wake up often and sometimes am awake for awhile so it shuts me off and I dont realize it. For instance, I supposedly got 12 minutes of sleep last night. :( overall I really like it.

Comparing against two other devices, Fitbug drastically undercounts steps. Twice its lost my count midday as reset to zero.

Ive been really happy with my Fitbug pedometer and the app is great too. Easy to setup and leave alone!

Using as part of work fitness tracking program. Fitbug device provided for free. App is good one, simple and easy to use.

I wrote a longer (helpful, honest and positive) review which didnt send and was completely lost. Not rehashing that, so let me just say that the Fitbug Orb and app are awesome if your mobile device supports both. My iPad can get the app but is too old to support the Bluetooth version. My smartphone is too cheap, I guess, to even get the app. So I have to use my hubbys phone in order to update my progress. I can then look at the data more thoroughly on my iPad or computer via the website. If I want to, I can purchase a $10-$15 "dongle" which would allow my laptop to receive the data, but I could have just paid full price for a Fitbit Zip which is supposedly supported by my phone and iPad already. My whole point in purchasing this on clearance (because it is white and not a popular color, I guess) was that I saved $20. I would just return the Orb for these minor inconveniences, but this week alone I have lost 1-2 lbs since he Orb motivates me to walk more. I wear it all day. I check it mid afternoon and see how many steps I still need to reach at least 10,000. Then I try to walk to get in the rest of the steps. I Love monitoring my sleep. Its nice to know how much I am getting and try to improve upon that. Anyway, I recommend this as a starter if you want to track steps and sleep! Just make sure you have supported devices so that you can use the app - otherwise you cant see your progress at all. Overall, great device and app. Just really wish I didnt have to wait for my hubby to be home with/be done using his phone in order to sync my data and see my progress.

I initially used this in my galaxy s4 and it was great! Unfortunately had to switch to iPhone 4s and it will NOT connect... Restarted, uninstalled, reinstalled, stood on my head... Just nothing...worthless...

I find the lack of instructions very annoying. Ive had to learn by fumbling. I still havent found how sleep works on my Air. There should be a manual somewhere.

Love it! Still trying to figure out a couple of things with the Orb but no problems with app!

I like the app for instant tracking needs all computer elements included.

Having previously used a spark tracker, which kept falling off and finally got lost forever, I love this! I like that this has Bluetooth so I dont have to have a dongle. I love that is tracks my steps and sleep. Im not upset that the app is separate from the web for adding nutrition. It would be a great idea if it was all in one but spark wasnt either so there must be a reason. Im very happy that I can wear this as a watch! Havent had it fall off yet. App is easy to set up and use. I bought my fit bug at target and set it up right then and there in the food area.

I love my Fitbug orb and I got it on sale at target so thats a plus. I just wish I could fill out the nutrition part through the app instead of having to go back online and go through my account. It would just be easier to do it in the app, but other than that I really like it and would recommend it.
