I’ve had a Leaf for about three weeks now and seem to be tracking steps accurately, but am continually disappointed with BellabeatWellnessCoach ’s functionality.
A) It doesn’t play well with iHealth so if you meditate or have active calories not tracked by BB, that info doesn’t transfer (i.e. no info *from* iHealth).
B) It only transfers steps *to* iHealth so no impact on walking/running distance, flights climbed, etc.
C) Amazingly, it doesn’t track activity from within its own app — like when you do a yoga class from the Workouts section (i.e. even though you’re wearing the device, every activity aside from steps needs to be manually logged).
D) Sleep is consistently off — like, every night. It thinks sleep started hours after it did, that there were issues when there weren’t or vice versa, and wake has always been too early. After three weeks, I would hope this would calibrate.
I didn’t expect it to be as smart as Fitbit, which guesses when you’re being active and asks if you’d like to add an activity, but not even registering activity logged within its own app, not transferring distance — c’mon. We can do better.
It’s nice having a non-obvious fitness tracker. It’s just a bummer the tech doesn’t support it better.
