Re: fitbit and fitbit flex question

Re: fitbit and fitbit flex question
Hello, I also have the Flex and I'm using the same FitBit free app. As far as I can tell, the FitBit syncs automatically. If you flick past those 3 buttons yesterday left, today, then day right, you will come to your Flex button. This button says Flex, looking for your Flex, or Flex Syncing, or Flex connected. When it says Flex connected you are all synced up. You can double tap this Flex button, which will bring you to more information about the Flex. It tells you when last synced, firmware version, battery level, silent alarms, main goal, wrist, all-day sync on/off, then sync now. :) good luck, Traci On May 21, 2014, at 5:12 AM, denise avant denise.av...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I just got a fitbit flex with sleep band.

RE: fitbit and fitbit flex question
Is it possible to set up the Fitbit without sighted assistance? Does it give you a measure of how many calories you are burning each day?

Re: fitbit and fitbit flex question
Yes, I set it up on my own. The app will tell you your steps, calories burned, distance traveled. If you decide to set up food/water intake, it will keep track of those calories/ounces. Oh, and it does some tracking while you sleep. If you are getting close to your goal in a day, the app sends an alert. If you reach your goal, the Flex on your wrist vibrates.
