I have a Garmin watch and my Fitbit has moved to my pocket. I keep the Fitbit because here and there, a friend will throw out a step challenge to me and / or a group and I will accept it. I use the Garmin because I like the fact that you can program a jog walk interval session, it controls the music on my phone and I can also choose to answer calls on it without even touching my phone if I have my bluetooth headset on. There is a bit of back and for regarding the accuracy of activity trackers but for me personally, I've found that I walk, jog, run more with these devices on. That's my 2 cents.  

If you want something simple and you have an iPhone, there is an app already on it. White icon with a pink heart, says Health. Tracks steps, distance, activities etc 

thanks guys ; ches; which garmin watch do you have? does it differenciate between different activities?? of course i'm not especially tech savey . and i have a samsung note3 and that works for me . don't need to invest in another phone at this time. it took years for my family to convince me to even get a smart phone . 

I have the 2015 vivoactive. Walk, Run, Swim, Golf are trackable activities with icons on the face as well as your regular steps. The 2016 model has a built in HR monitor but my phone has a HR sensor built in. 

I have a FitBit ChargeHR and LOVE it! Well worth the money. 

now here is the question what devices are compatible (what evere it's called) with the fatsecret website. remember; i'm a real dummy with all this. needs tobe simple stupid!!!!
