Kybeco Fitness Tracker, Elegant Waterproof Heart Rate Monitor Activity Tracker Wearable Wristband Wireless Step Counter Smart Bracelet Watch for Android and iOS Smartphones

I bought this tracker after having used a cheaper one a year ago..that one played out and quit working along time ago. I have gained a lot of weight since I quit smoking and have been trying to lose the weight now. I purchased the Very Fit Pro Heart Rate smart fitness tracker because I wanted to be able to track my steps at work (I work in a hospital 5 floors) and walk a lot during the day, I also was interested in my sleep patterns and my heart rate. This tracker tracks everything, steps, gym workouts: treadmill, weights, swimming etc. I found the directions a little hard for me to understand but played with the tracker and figured it out. If you touch the item that is displayed once it will let you continue to scroll through the list items until you find your selection hold down on the item and it will monitor what you have selected. I have found myself monitoring my heart rate at several times a day to see if I am elevating my heart rate. You also can set alarms which I like because I have a sedentary job at times and get wrapped up in computer work and for get to walk away or get up and move...this lets me set an alarm so I get up. It also let me set my goals for steps during the day and when i reach my goal fire works go off on it and it vibrates. When you first get it you need to plug it up and charge it for at least a full 2 hours to get it charged and then wear it all week. I really like that part. I charged mine last Tuesday and it has gone a full week and I will charge it tomorrow and start over again. All in all I love that it is sleek and only displays the time when i touch it and the battery lasts a long time on a 2 hour charge. It exceeded my expectations on categories that it is able to monitor and the ease of use.

I purchased this item as a means to be able to track my steps and heartrate, but hopefully at a much cheaper price point than some of the "big named" devices. I have used a competing brand's device in the past and was overall impressed but it's longevity was questionable. So I began looking for a cheaper alternative and had seen the favorable reviews for this device. I ordered it on the thought that if it wasn't all it was supposed to be, I wouldn't be out too much. How surprised I have been overall! It arrived in a nice box, well packed with the device and multi language manual. Although the manuals are sometimes suspect on these multi language ones, this manual was well written and had all the information I needed. I used the QR code on the rear of the manual to download the app that controls the device, VeryFitPro. I set the app up and overall liked the layout and function. It immediately found the device and synced time, date and other info. It also did an update and had everything set up right. The device itself has about 4 screens that you can customize information that is useful to each individual. It does not have a mechanical button, but a soft button on the screen to cycle through time/steps, heart rate, and type of exercise (that you can set through the app). The display on the device is monochrome but nice and bright. I have been really impressed with the functionality of the soft control button and how fast it registers. The device's band is a very soft rubber with a metal clasp that seems pretty sturdy. The heart rate sensor on the rear is bright and worked better than other fitness bands I've used. The device is charged by removing one of the bands which exposes a USB dongle that plugs into any USB charger, which was very unique. No proprietary charger here! The App itself is the storehouse of all the info for the device. It tracks pretty much everything and allows for sharing and/or use in other fitness platforms such as MyFitnessPal. It does not track dietary info, but can link to other apps that do. Overall, I have been extremely impressed with this tracker. My expectations were initially low, but I have been blown away by the functionality and capabilities of this tracker. For the price and the fact that it gives the "Big Name" trackers a run for their money, this device should be on your short-list if you are in the market!

While I love that it is waterproof, you can not use the fitness tracker for swimming. It doesn't give you what I feel should be an obvious activity (swimming) to track. While it dos offer football, basketball, yoga and tennis. I've tried choosing an activity like dance hoping it would track but for whatever reason in the water it does not like to track. I've tried making sure the tracker was in constant contact with my skin, still no tracking. The other frustration I have with it is when beginning a activity you want to track it is cumbersome. You have to double click the activity you want to start tracking but in the process of trying to double click, 9 times out of 10 it moves on to the next activity. So you have to scroll through all of them again to get to the one you want to track. It usually takes several attempts before being able to begin activity. My wife and I both have them and we both experience the same issues with use of this tracker.

I recently purchased the Kybeco Elegant Waterproof Heart Rate Monitor as a replacement for one I purchased from Amazon that had a poorly designed wristband. So, the Kybeco wristband is excellent. Very adjustable and secures to your wrist with confidence. The device charges easily once you take off the flexible band to expose the USB "male" port. Download the app from either the Apple App store or Google Play. I tried the QR Code on the box but the download never completed. Also, my Norton QR app suggested that the site might be unsecured. The App is called VeryFitPro. You need this app to sync to your new device. It sets up the correct date/time and gives you the opportunity to set up an account with personalized options.So far (24 hrs.), all of the standard features are working...Date/Clock..Step counter, Heart Rate, Sleep Monitor. The booklet does not describe how you can set up the device so it tracks from a specific time period. This may be an automatic setting. For example, I started to use it in the evening and it counted my steps (250). I went to bed. The Sleep Monitor gave me a breakdown of my sleep habits (light and deep) which was interesting. However, the steps continued from where I left off. Shouldn't have started at the last point in time butt should have refreshed? No idea how or if that's possible.

TRÈS SATISFAIT !
