I have used a lot of fitness trackers to keep track of my workouts (Nike Fuelband, Jawbone UP 24, BodyMedia Fit, etc.) but was looking for something that not only tracks your workouts but intelligently coaches you along the way. There is a tracker called Moov that is out there, and they just announced a new second generation version called the Moov NOW which is available for pre-order at a significant discount of $59 for one, or $49 each for 2 or more, which I think is cheap. Link: https://moov.cc/getmoov/F75D619C67 . I went ahead and did an impulse buy for two of these, since two were still cheaper than other bands I was considering. Amazon reviews of the original Moov seem very positive, but I wanted some insight from the MFP community if I just threw away my money or not. Is there anyone out there that uses a Moov? How has your experience been? Do you use it on iPhone or Android (I'll be using it on Android)? Thanks for your insights!

    Not that rare. I have a friend that bought a Fitbit and a Moov. She sent the Moov back after s week with both. Her problem was that she had problems getting the Moov to sync up.

    I have vivofit garmin. I got a move now as it looked interesting. I am hoping it work as well as advertise. I still like my garmin but I liked the coaching aspect of the move now item.

    I have been through Vivofit 2 and Vivofit 3 and, although Garmin has a great app and super archiving of one's exercise, the MOOV I have been using for a month has a better "instant" interface after syncing. (My Garmin's were way less waterproof that advertised ... and I swim 2.5 to 3.5 hours per day. The Moov wins on waterproof!)

    I love my MOOV. It understands cycling and can measure my cadence. Because it doesn't have a display it don't have to charge it, only change the battery twice a year.

    I had two (so I could do boxing). I liked them at first but the workouts didn't really suit me and the feedback was more generic than I'd hoped.
