FitBit/iWatch suggestion

Hi all,

I’m trying to get moving more.

I think a step counter or a fit bit type watch might help.

I think I would like a Fitbit and I own an iPhone so I’m not sure whether an iWatch would be better?

What do you recommend?

You can get all the info on a cheaper device . I have a great watch I got from Amazon for 20 quid. Looks like an Apple Watch - counts steps, HR, activities etc and looks really smart

It syncs to an app on your phone

You can also see your messages and cal notifications on the watch

I have an iPhone but didn't think Apple Watch was worth it

Just get a clip on pedometer, they're more accurate anyway.

Can you send link to the watch you have please?

I don’t want to spend loads unnecessarily… Thank you 😊

I did.

Decided not to get an expensive one. This one looks smart and does the job well! Tracks sleep, heart rate, blood pressure, steps. Shows incoming calls and text messages too.
