Hi! I just bought a Polar Loop activity tracker today.... I work as a department manager at Walmart and I am constantly walking, and I am tired of basically guessing how much I am walking and what I am burning. Seems like a nice bracelet, does anyone else use it? Like it? Any problems with it? Does it help you stay motivated to go further? The only downfall of it that I see so far is the app to use with it is not compatible with MFP ...atleast I can just copy over the info to this app. It was marked down to $35 from $100 because we won't be carrying it anymore, so I said, eh, why not... Haha

I used the Loop for over a year, I never had any problems with it. I paired it with the H7 sensor when I worked out. The app is only compatible with apple products right now, they were supposed to be working on an android solution.0

Same here, been using mine since Jan15 and love it. Just can't wait for the android app to be updated.
Very motivating for me, has me programmed to get up from my desk every hour, walk the long way to the coffee machine and bathrooms.0 -
I had the Loop when it first came out. Stopped using it at the last update to Android a couple months ago. Just bought the Vivosmart and so far I love it. Loop didn't consistently link to my chest strap so that was frustrating and I wanted it to link to MFP too. But at $35 you aren't out of pocket that much so I hope it meets your expectations.0

I've been using it for about 6 weeks now. I really like it because I too was guessing as to how many steps i was taking a day. I use it in conjunction with MapMyFitness, MapMyWalk or MapMyRide. The loop talks to MMF (etc.) and then MMF talks to MyFitnessPal. It's a little convoluted, but it helps when I forget to log in my workouts and such on MFP.0
