anyone using this?

how reliable?

i have a jawbone up24 that i cant for the life of me get to transmit to MFP anymore.

just saw the apple health app has a step tracker, though its showing roughly 2,000 less steps than my jawbone is for the day

    Just realized what is likely causing the descrepency. My jawbone I slaways on me where as the ohone is generally left on my desk during bathroom runs or getting coffee or going to a coworkers desk etc

    Those mini trips likely make up the difference

    I have found that my phone is pretty accurate. However, the downside is having to ALWAYS have it on your person to get all of your steps counted. It's been working pretty well for me.
