Fitbit app now available for Android

Only yesterday we posted a review advocating the fitbit, an essential gadget for keeping track of your personal health. The good news is that there is now an Android fitbit app available as well. This is a handy add on that enables you to log food, water and work out data and then sync with your fitbit account. At the moment progress can only be synced when you’re in range of a base station (likely your home computer), so you can’t upload data while out and about. The app is free and worth checking out even if you don’t have the fitbit.

I pitch this post to the last two types as this is where I would put myself.  I want to be healthy but I am not willing to devote everything to it, but that is just me.

We begun ranging the Fitbit here at Clove and I decided to get one as I read good things.  I was taken by the sales pitch, but sales pitch aside I am talking personally here to say that the product is fantastic.
