I recently started wearing an Apple Watch on my opposite wrist, and sharing data with others is truly motivating. In many cases, as with Fitbit, this involves keeping on top of what others are doing and challenging peers as encouragement to work towards personal goals. What makes the metrics stand out is when the data is actionable. Nowadays, every smartwatch and fitness tracker can accomplish all the same things and record most of the same data. Motivating, encouraging, and collaborating with a community of users through workouts, sharing stats, competitions, and comparisons is - or rather was - one of Fitbit’s biggest strengths. Counting steps and tracking health metrics in a vacuum isn't enough anymore. Fitness tracking has been Fitbit’s bread and butter from the start, and it remains as such despite branching out into other products. There’s no walled garden around it like you’ll find with the Apple Watch or limitations on what features you can use like with Samsung Galaxy watches.įitbit is not a phone company that one day started making watches, nor a health tech company that began developing wrist-based trackers to add to its growing list of products. You can use Fitbit with both Android and Apple and don't even need to own a Fitbit to use some of the features of the app (tracking with the sensors in your phone).
