The Fitbit app is designed to work with the company's fitness trackers and smart scales. With this app, Fitbit activity tracker users can track all activity including workouts, sleep patterns, and much more. The Fitbit download is available on GooglePlay, Apple app store, and from the Window Store.
Fitbits were one of the first wireless tracker technology gadgets available to the market. The activity trackers were released in October 2007. The first version of the activity tracker was brought to market at the same time. It was co-founded by James Park and Eric Friedman. When brought to market, it was immediately available worldwide. With new technology releases, the app has been updated too.

How the Fitbit Download Works
When you download the Fitbit application for an app store, you'll be prompted to create an account. While creating the account, you'll need to know what type of tracker you have. The company has several different trackers on the market. It's important to make the right selection to ensure the information tracked is accurate. Next, you can go through the features and start setting up goals. If you use a social media account to connect to the app, you'll be able to see if you have friends all ready using the technology. If so, you can easily connect with friends and start a friendly challenge.
The Fitbit will detect the wireless tracker through Bluetooth technology. Once connected, the app can be used to track activity, runs, workouts, monitoring hearbeats, and has a food diary feature. The food diary feature allows users to log their calorie intake as well as hydration. Users can set and manage goals through the app to help them achieve better health and weight and fitness goals.
If worn at night, the Fitbit app can record sleep history including restless minutes and deep sleep. For motivation, users can connect with Facebook friends who also use the app. Friends can compete to see who meets their goals. Winners of certain challenges receive virtual badges that help motivate them to living a better, healthier life.
