Step count isn't very accurate but I still find it to be a motivating tool!
Accuracy: When worn as a watch, the step count is really inaccurate. I went through the Burger King drive-thru and racked up about 800 steps, for example. When worn on my waistband or bra strap, the step count is about 18% higher on my Fitbit when compared to my iPhone, so I'm not sure which is more accurate. BUT I try not to get too hung up on the step count. I set my goal for 12,000 so I know, if I hit it, I probably got 10,000 anyhow.Wear-ability: Already covered the watch. The little piece that holds the silicon holder in place fell off (see photo) and got lost after about week 2, so now it can be a little tricky to put on one's clothing but once it's on, it doesn't tend to fall off.My favorite feature: It counts your 'active minutes' and it causes me to strive for more exercise.
