I am about to get a new iPhone 6s (hopefully next week). I want to use an activity tracker app.

I had a fitbit but it broke (freak bathtub accident). I am looking for a tracker that is very similar to a fitbit because I like to see how much I have walked in a day and how many stairs I have climbed and how many calories burned.

here is my criteria:
1. free or close to free (watching my budget this month)
2. easy to use to read my results or to import info into MFP
3. similar output to a fitbit

What else should I be looking for? What app suggestions do you have for me?

P.S. I'm not extremely tech savvy and I'm quite new to MFP so please don't overwhelm me with too much - Keep it simple for my sake!

Thanks.

    iHealth is an app that comes with an iphone, so it's free and you'll have it as soon as you get your phone. It tracks Flights Climbed, Steps and Walking/Running Distance as long as you are carrying your phone with you while you're doing it.
