Disappointing
I'd been eyeing this product for a while after I saw an ad on Facebook. I couldn't really justify paying so much for it when i already had a fitbit. But the fitbit was starting to really irritate my skin and I wanted something that gave me more options on where to wear it and this seemed to be a great choice. However, I have to say, it fell short of my expectations. Pros: 1. versatility to wear in different ways (bracelet, necklace, or clip) 2. is much prettier than any other activity tracker 3. syncs to the app much faster than my fitbit 4. it helps track your period (no other activity tracker does that, that I'm aware of) Cons: 1. the product comes with the double wrap bracelet, but only in S/M, which is too small for me (the large is an additional $24) 2. when worn as a necklace, it's a bit heavy and tends to stick to my skin (the backside is flat metal) 3. the app won't allow me to choose an earlier time for bed before 9pm (I know that may not be an issue for some, but I get up really early, so I have to go to bed early) 4. the alarm is kind of a joke; the device vibrates, but I almost can't feel it and it never wakes me up. I also have one set to remind me to take my vitamins in the evening and at this point, I have never felt it go off. 5. it doesn't seem to log any activity unless its continuous for at least 5 min (no step tracking at all unless it logs activity of 5 min or more) 6. the stress tracking doesn't make a whole lot of sense; during the day, I usually feel very stressed at work, but it says I'm stress resistant For me, the cons far outweigh the pros. I wish I could have tested this out before I spent over $120. I definitely would not have bought this.
