It's been a week since I am using this fitbit air. Almost 6 days of battery life I am getting out of it. I am wearing it continuously in both hands at the same time changing the wrist preference in the app.

The pros: The sleep tracking is the best I have come across, I also have the nothing watch 2 pro and the mi band 5. I am getting more insights and accurate data from fitbit.

It's very light weight even comparing to the mi band 5 . At first the band seems different in the hand but with time it was just amazing. Not at all bothering thats in my hand.

I liked the AI coach very much it has its goods. But not the one the I was expecting but doing its job. It's easy to log food and talk with it, I use wisper flow for speech to text and the coach handles it really nice.

Even activity tracking is good, I don't like the automatic activity tracking I manually start the session, i usually go for running and gym and all the stats and data is very much i need not something like i thought might be off the charts data calculation.

The smart alarm feature is a goated one, it vibrates the watch at optimal time of the alarm that I have set .

The cons: the app ui is the main issue. I don't why the main stats ui seems broken at times not been placed or not using the space properly. Need a better ui without copying bevel or whoop the team can do a better option.

The ai coach chat when I enter the chat at sometimes the data won't go and says "something went wrong" and I have to hot enter again. Solves the issue but not a good experience.

The floors activity capturing is shit i guess I have climbed my flats stairs just to check it out but not a single floor stairs has been logged and i tried it but not working.

Let know guys what are the other information that you guys need, will help you out and let me know what all new to try.

I'm not going to justify about my purchase but here are the points i haved noticed in my last 4 days with Fitbit Air

Good things:

1. It tracked my Swimming lap/Distance really well. For a device with no inbuilt GPS and mobile phone inside locker, it did well

2. It tracks your sleep with clear REM, Deep Sleep, Light Sleep and time to sleep really good when at home. I will talk about the issues i faced with sleep tracker later

3. No screen - No distraction. I barely feel it's on my skin. When someone asks about it, i kind of forget that I'm wearing one 😂 (first few days probably)

4. Alarm is surprisingly good. Fitbit Air gives a vibration on your wrist and will not go off until we firmly double tap. Last four days fitbit was able to wake me up. I'm somebody who would subconsciously turn off mobile alarm and this vibration is great way to start day without loud sound to your ears

Bad:

1. Sleep tracker when I was on train or overnight sleeper bus. It didn't detect sleep at all!! (Probably it's assuming GPS of mobile and it's on move and didn't take as sleep session, will try once by turning off the GPS)

2. I went for a 6k run. And in my slides you can see the track of my run. The GPS is all over. It didn't take my pace , running track anything clearly at all. Expect my BPM.

My mobile was in battery saver mode and I assume that got something to do with GPS. Will try and update here if it's tracking fine when mobile is in normal mode.

3. I ran on treadmill for 3km and it showed almost double about 6km. And the reason it said was some calculation with respect to how many times im moving my hand while walking normally compares it with my hands moving while running . Ig it should not be picked up like that.

I’ve been lurking in this sub for a while watching everyone talk about buying the band and discussing setup questions. Now that mine has finally arrived two days back, I’d love some advice from experienced fitness tracker users.

This is my first fitness band ever, and my main priority is simply getting in better shape and improving my overall health. For those who have been using one for a while:

• Which metrics and data points are actually worth paying attention to (and which ones are just noise)?

• What realistic expectations and goals should a beginner set?

• What should be a good long-term goal?

• How has having the data practically changed your day-to-day habits?

Would appreciate any tips or hard-learned lessons!

just got the air and my 3 months of google health premium only started. i got curious how the coach works so i built my own version. once the trial ends i'll probably just use this instead of paying for premium.

you sign in with google and ask it things like "why am i so tired this week" or "is my sleep getting worse". it goes through your sleep, resting heart rate and hrv, tells you what changed and what you could do about it.

connecting your own fitbit data is invite only for now (google keeps new apps in testing mode). dm me if you want in.

also it's on a free server so the first load can take a minute

I see that certain vitals don't show up in my fitbit air

Note: I have been using this for only 3 days now

Am I missing anything?

I don't understand how i got 100% recovery.

I understand that recovery score is a bi-product of my HRV and HRR, and they were pretty good tonight. But i don't think so i should i have such a a good HRV and HRR.

Coz last night i slept ~1hr late then my usual bedtime. I ate my last meal ~3hrs before my bedtime (usually its ~6hrs), And i didn't even follow my diet yesterday.

I am also sceptical, coz i my recovery has nvr been 80+.

So i am not questioning bevel. I am questioning weather this is actually possible, or is this a Fitbit air glitch.

[Update: Solution found!]

The issue was the data source priority in Apple Health.
How to fix it:
Open Apple Health and go to Steps.
Scroll down to Data Sources & Access.
Under Data Sources, tap Edit.
Move Google Health above Apple Health and your iPhone.
This fixed the priority order in my case. If your step counts differ, check this setting first!
Thanks to u/lyfeizfones for the solution.

original body:
Why is there a difference in step counts between Google Health and Apple Health on the same day? Google shows 2,698 steps, while Apple Health shows 1,793. Both are tracking my steps on the same iPhone. How can I fix this?

Happy ordering! ❤️

I have cancelled my Fitbit Air. I was so hyped up from the day Fitbit was launched in US. I was eagerly waiting for this, which was just out of hype. I ordered it last night, but then I realised something. I was doing impulse buying. I don’t really need it, I don’t do exercise due to busy schedules. I was going to use it for sleep tracking but low sleep score automatically triggers my brain that the particular day will not go productive, which makes me anxious. So I cancelled it, I know that I was buying out of hype, and after a week or two I will regret buying these and would have wasted 12k.

I noticed that my step count keeps increasing even though I’m just sitting in the bus. Is this normal? Or
Does it need some kind of calibration ?

Please Help guys 🥲
