Does anyone use Striiv?

I would love to find some friends to do walk-a-thons and relays with... it seems like a really fun app. I just ordered the pedometer too!

    I use it! I'm actually doing a search on MFP at the moment to see if I can fix a little glitch I've noticed. When it logs my walking calories, the calories I enter for other exercise isn't added on top, but taken away from. In other words, if I burn 500 calories walking, and I add 100 calories for gardening, Fitness Pal only recognizes the total of 500 calories. It will reduce my Striiv calories to 400, and log the gardening at 100. Striiv IS fun! I love it!
  • I can't get Strive Play inexpensively here in Canada but I just ordered a Striiv Device Basic Bundle (White) by Striiv from amazon.ca. Should have it between the 11th and 15th of April. Looks like a fun and motivational pedometer. I don't think is syncs with MFP or the App or anything but it has the game and motivational challenges and stuff. Really looking forward to trying it out.

    I noticed that glitch as well.... it was all fine and good until I logged my workout. But I am not too concerned with that at all... I just love how much fun it it. I just ordered the Play device and should get it tomorrow. I am pretty excited.

    I am looking for friends on Striiv to do some of the challenges with, like the relays and the walkathons.... so if you are interested, my email is lvideki@gmail.com

    Are you logging them as done at the same time. If so, it will obviously thing the gardening calories were the same as the gardening ones.

    No, I mean, when I log gardening, it subtracts from the Striiv calories. Striiv measures walking and steps.
