Fitness trackers are the latest technological evolution. Since their introduction, these units have offered a great fitness experience like never before! Take the example of the BIGGERFIVE fitness tracker. This device is designed to collect a broad range of data about your physical activity.
What’s more, it is not just designed for active athletes, but pretty much every person interested in staying in shape and healthy through various fitness activities or stretching techniques.
How to Turn on the BIGGERFIVE Fitness Tracker
Got a new BIGGERFIVE fitness tracker but don’t know how to turn it on and start tracking your activity? Don’t sweat it, I’ve got you covered.
Turning on your new BIGGERFIVE band is simple First up, make sure to charge up that band before strapping it on. The struggle is real when your tracker dies mid-workout! Plug the charging cable into the port on the back of the band. I like to give it a good 30 minutes of juicing up before taking it for a spin.
Once you’ve charged your band you’ll press and hold the touch button on the band’s face until you see the startup screen light up. Boom – you’re officially powered on! Wasn’t that easy? From there, you’ll just download the BIGGERFIVE app and pair your band to your phone via Bluetooth.
So, feel free to have the app remind you to keep your schedule organized, and you will find yourself making the most out of your efforts in your daily activities, whether you’re jogging or scuba diving
What App Do You Use for the BIGGERFIVE Fitness Tracker?
The BIGGERFIVE app!
First things first, download the free BIGGERFIVE app on your phone, whether you got an iPhone or Android. The app lets you sync up with your band via Bluetooth – so your phone and tracker can “talk” to each other.
Once you install the app, it’ll take you through getting the two connected and setting up your personal profile. It’s mad easy, just gotta follow the steps.
Now the fun begins! The BIGGERFIVE app makes it super simple to monitor your steps, distance, calories burned, sleep patterns – you name it. You can check out all your daily stats, see how active you are (or aren’t), and how well you’re snoozing each night.
It all updates automatically since your tracker is synced. The app will even send you reminders to get off that couch and start moving!
