    I bought a Fitbit Flex a few weeks ago & linked it to MFP. I spend most of my working day sat at a desk, so this gives me a relatively accurate indication of daily activity. Just started walking/hiking too, so its great for that. I find MFP over estimates walking/hiking too much.

    Its a great motivator to get me walking more on an evening, if I have been sat all day at work. I do track my sleep on it too, but to be honest I have another app for that on my phone, which is a little more detailed & which wakes me up very gently.

    Which app do you use for sleep tracking?

    I use both together but I keep my dashboard simple - sleep monitor, step counter, distance and friends

    Sorry for the late reply - I use Sleep Cycle. It seems pretty accurate.
