Starts recording it and displays your stats on the watch face and on the screen where you’re streaming your workout. Fitbit Premium doesn’t do anything like this. Fitbit workouts feel more akin to watching a YouTube workout. Though it does prompt you to log your workout when you finish the video so you can see your stats recorded in the app, the integration of the video and device doesn’t feel as seamless as Apple Fitness+.It also doesn’t display anything on the watch when you’re working out, and you must check out your activity tab after you’re done to see how many calories you burned (a rough estimate, of course, but something I could see at a glance on the Apple Watch). If you want to see real-time stats on your wrist, you can start a workout manually from the menu on your Fitbit when you press play on the app—by doing this, the workout will show up in your activity log twice, but you get the same amount of “credit” in your day for the session either way.Overall, wearing a Fitbit makes me feel more motivated to move than when I don't, and using Premium gave me extra resources to work out when I wanted to. I also loved having access to workout videos from different brands in one spot. But I still think the whole thing could've been better synergized.Is Fitbit Premium worth it? Credit: Reviewed / Betsey Goldwasser Fitbit Premium may not rock your fitness world, but it could get you to move more. From my perspective, Fitbit Premium fits in with Fitbit’s prevailing raison d'être—to motivate users to keep active—even if it doesn’t revolutionize it. If you’re already following a fitness program that you like, using it with a Fitbit will benefit you more than switching to Fitbit Premium. But if you aren’t working out much right now, and you own a Fitbit already or were thinking of getting one, and you’re feeling adrift in the multitudinous array of available workout programs, Premium is worth a try. The extra resources themselves aren’t as important as the fact

Fitbit kicked off a refund program last month after learning its Force activity tracker caused skin irritation in a "small percentage" of users, and now we're finally getting a better sense of the situation. According to the official recall notice from the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, the company received around 9,900 reports of skin irritation and around 250 reports of blistering. The notice also points out that the recall affects about 1 million of the wearables in the United States and about 28,000 more in Canada. So what happens next? Well, the CPSC's stance is clear: contact the company and take the money."Whether you hear about this recall from the CPSC or Fitbit directly, take advantage of the refund right away," CPSC communications director Scott Wolfson told Engadget. "It's actually somewhat rare for firms that we deal with to provide a refund, especially a full refund."The Commission also wants the company to inform as many of its customers of the recall as possible, and it doesn't seem thrilled with what Fitbit has accomplished so far. At time of writing, Fitbit's popular Twitter (77,700 followers) and Facebook (250,000 likes) accounts make no mention of the recall. That's not to say Fitbit is just sitting around though: a representative confirmed to us that it'll email all Force owners "over the next few weeks" to make sure they're aware of the situation.

Fitness trackers are incredibly popular these days, and it is easy to see why. They can accurately measure a huge number of health factors, help you to plan fitness programs, give you feedback on your current program, and they can provide you with amazing insight into your lifestyle and health.In this review, we will be taking a look at six minimalist fitness trackers.Essentially minimalist fitness trackers are trackers that have minimal or no display. They are compact and efficient with the amount of space they take up. Even without the display, minimalist fitness trackers can still keep incredible data logs of your workouts, heart rate, and step count.Many minimalist fitness trackers can record your GPS location, and they are great for tracking your sleep. Some are even able to track your stress levels, mostly through monitoring your heart rate.Best Minimalist Fitness TrackersWe have picked out six of the best minimalist fitness trackers that are currently available to purchase.Our Top 3 PicksThe majority of the fitness trackers come from Fitbit as this is by far the best company for minimalist fitness trackers, but their range is massive, so this list can really help you find the ideal fitness tracker for your specific needs.1. Fitbit Flex 2One of the best features of the Fitbit Flex 2 is the ability to use it while swimming. This is not that common for the smaller fitness trackers out there. If you are a swimmer, then this could be the perfect fitness tracker for you. So small and light that it won’t affect your strokes, and accurate when tracking.The Fitbit Flex 2 is also ideal for sleep tracking, again, this is partly down to the size and comfort of the tracker. Fitbit claims that it can estimate the amount of REM sleep you get each night, and set a silent vibrating alarm to help you wake up naturally.The tracker is also highly durable considering its size, weight, and cost. While it won’t take direct damage, it can handle the typical wear and tear of an intense workout, is very waterproof, and the band itself is able to survive for a reasonable amount of time without fraying.But the Fitbit Flex 2 is by no means perfect. Many people have complained about the battery life, and when you start to use it regularly you can see what they mean. It’s such a small tracker that you kind of expect it to charge quickly, but be prepared to wait for several hours.Even when it is fully charged, the battery does not last long enough and you’ll find yourself spending more time than you had expected with your arm unencumbered by your fitness tracker while it is plugged into your wall.There have also been a number of issues over the years with the app not syncing well with the Fitbit. These issues have been ironed out somewhat after numerous patches, but it can be a frustrating experience when the data is not properly logged.Overall, this is a really good minimalist
