I was a Endomondo Pro user with a IPhone 4 and I decided to try the Fitbit ONE.

The damn thing strives to be so user friendly that it actually becomes an annoyance.
You have to go through hoops to disable it while driving.

And if you don't disable it, you have to manually go into the dashboard and add a driving activity for that timeframe. But for me it actually added calories burned that way...lol

I'm trying to see where this thing is an actual improvement over my Endomondo Pro, with my IPhones GPS tracking and direct update to MFP, it is a win win. Other than the Fitbit being on you the whole day from regular activities at work, I do not see the advantage.

    Why do you need to disable your ONE while driving? Are you driving something extremely bumpy?

    Unless it is counting a lot of extra steps it is not gonna effect you overall results. I used to worry about each and every step counted and their accuracy, but once I let go of that and just accepted what was counted I was much happier. How many extra steps is it counting, do you drive a lot?
