Anyone compare Fit Bit to the Striiv

beckyplummer

I bought a fitbit ( used) and I love it but I just saw the striiv and it has the myland game that you can set challenges and your steps get you to the challenges.

Has anyone worked with the Striiv and is it worth it... When my Fit Bit dies( I kill electronics real easy) I will want to get a new gadget and wanted to get real peoples thoughts on the striiv... not the ones on Amazon that could be dumbing up to make the product sound much better then it is.

I have the Striiv and I used it every day, its small and compact so its easy to keep on me at all times. I like the MyLand game on my iPhone that links up to it, keeps me interested in it when the steps arent the top of my concerns. Ive been trying to reach my goal of 10k steps a day and I have to stay the Striiv has really helped get me there and keep me there. The battery life is good, lasts about 3 -4 days before it needs a charge. It doesnt have a ton of options but it keeps track of your steps, stairs, calories, distance and minutes; not sure if you are looking for more but thats what its got Hope that helps a little!

There are three STRIIV thingies. The Play is like the fitbit. It shows strps and calories but also links to the app which has the myland game and challanges. This app can also be used on its own but using your phone as the pedometer isn't very accurate. The app syncs with MFP.

The original smart pedometer doesn't lunk to MFP. It also has challanges and myland on its own screen. You can also donate to charity which you can't do with the app or the app/ Play.

Fitbit can link to the Earndit website if you want to donate to charity.
