BIGGERFIVE Kids Fitness Tracker Watch for Girls Boys, Waterproof Slim Activity Tracker with Pedometer, Calorie Counter, Sleep Monitor, Silent Alarm Clock

I’ve had mine for about six weeks and only take it off to charge it once a week. I use it as a watch and for the vibrating alarms to help me stay on track while getting ready for work in the morning.It’s really simple, but that’s what I wanted.I definitely agree with what other reviews have said about the charging port being flimsy. I am SO CAREFUL every time I pull the strap off to charge it, and it still feel like I might break it.The only other thing I would really change would be to be able to turn off more of the features. I don’t use the stop watch, exercise mode, or step counter, and it’s a little annoying to have to scroll through all of them to check the time., if the screen is wet, it will sometimes read as a long press and start exercise mode.

We purchased this for our daughter as she was interested in tracking her activity and it looked like a good kids watch. Couple of thoughts: the charging system is designed that you remove a band and then plug the watch face directly into a USB charger. I was a bit skeptical of this initially, and my fears proved true as the tab broke off one evening. We contacted the vendor, and they stepped up to the plate and immediately sent a new watch so kudos for that. The other observation I would have to make is that the step count is very inaccurate- we have numerous fitness trackers in our house, and this one is all over the map. Regardless, it is a good watch for children and at the price point that they are selling it I would not discourage you from buying it. The app works pretty good and it’s a fairly tough unit.***UPDATE***We had the charging tab break off on this item twice as it is difficult to remove the band. The seller was great and replaced it both times. I would recommend care when removing the silicone band.

We wanted to find an inexpensive fitness tracker for our very active son. I'd seen favorable reviews of the Biggerfive Slim Fitness tracker and was positively surprised by the LOW price. We previously had owned the kids FitBit tracker as well as the Garmin activity tracker. While the app interface on those two items was nicer, for a pure freestanding activity tracker, this little unit is hard to beat. In addition to the agreeable price, the built-in charge design was slick and we like the overall aesthetic. With other activity trackers, the actual tracker somehow kept getting dislodged from the watchband.I was disappointed when the Slimfit simply died a few weeks into use, but the Customer Support quickly provided an entirely new unit after verifying that it was being charged correctly. The other one must have had a bad battery because this one's battery is lasting MUCH longer.You do need to connect the device to a tablet or phone for some of the set up and obviously to download and archive the activity. The app is intended for a phone but is usable on a tablet too, just not sized well for that format. The sleep monitoring seemed off on the original, defective unit but our son and we were mainly curious how many steps he was getting in this summer.I would recommend giving this option a go for essential activity tracking.

I bought this for our 10yo and here are the pros and cons.Pros: - it's quite comfortable on his little wrists. It doesn't stick out or is huge.- It does an ok job of step counting but I use it as an approximate. Not exact as it counts steps even when he is moving his hand which he does while waving his pencil during his homework. It still excites him to see his steps.- Promotes independence. He is able to estimate how much playtime he has left and follow his routine.Cons:- Very reliant on the phone app and the phone being around.I bought it so that he can wake himself up with the alarm that I set. We found that if I leave home before him, the alarm doesn't go off as my phone is not connected to the watch.- he can't do much independently on the watch. Can't set his own alarm, can't turn on and turn off "wrist sense"(the watch lights up when he turns his wrist to see the time). He needs me to do all this on the phone while I am near him.I can't read his sleep or activity reports unless he is close to me so that the watch syncs. Otherwise it is out of sync most times.Other than the above, it's a good beginner watch and you get what you pay for.

UPDATE: I have enjoyed my new fitness tracker but for some reason, it stopped working. I emailed support and we went thru some troubleshooting options, I sent photos and they determined it needed to be replaced and they sent me a new one! Customer service is great and super responsive and I really appreciated it.I lost my small Fitbit Flex and was so sad because I love the small size. I decided to try this one and I've really liked it. I like the smaller profile, app was fairly easy to use, I like the vibrating alarm and the options. I had an issue pairing the device w/the app but the customer service responded in a timely manner and I got it figured it. I like that you can use any usb block charger to charge it...no need for a separate charger! I do wish there were more band color options. I'd totally buy again.
