VeryFitPro Reviews

by Harlhail

I look at the clock before I get on the treadmill. Start the treadmill app and instantly noticed it was lagging way behind. I did 70+ minutes and 5+ miles and it recorded 25 minutes with 3 miles. Given the fact that I walk between 3.5 and 4.1 mph that makes zero sense. I also did 20 + minutes of weight training and the watch showed 7 minutes. I timed everything by the clock and can only assume you get what you pay for. Heart rate appears to be somewhat accurate and it does have a good long charge on the battery. I do not track my sleep so no comment on that. Update. It also keeps resetting my stride to the default 25 inches. Resting heart rate shows 98 bpm and average 68 bpm?? Yes you do get what you pay for. I’ve ordered a simple pedometer for my exercise until I can afford the real thing. Used a simple pedometer today in addition to the band. Pedometer showed an accurate reading of the 5 miles I walked and the this app band was at least 3000 steps behind. Conclusion - this is a nice watch but or fitness recording is pretty useless

I’m really enjoying the this app watch and app but, I would love to be able to have a closer look at my sleep data. It gives you a general idea of when you went to sleep and wake up, but I’d like to be able to “zoom” in on the bar to see when I wake up for short periods or when my deep sleep cycle began and how long it has lasted. I realize this information isn’t always exact but I’d like to know what the watch is picking up. I think that would be an excellent update.

Now, for why I left a one star. To hopefully get your attention to fix the sleeping chart now saving all of the sleeping data. An example, If I go to bed at 11pm and wake up at 5am for a bathroom trip, when I go back to sleep at say 5:05, when I wake up and check the chart all it’ll show me is I went to sleep at 5:05 am. It won’t show the whole chart. So I don’t really get to see how I sleep. Please do something about this.

I had to add to my review. I cannot stress how much you should avoid VeryFitPro, it is complete garbage. Just a little 5 miles into my ride today and VeryFitPro shuts down. When I bring it back up, it starts at the home page and I cannot see any of the data from my ride. When I go back to the tracking page and try and restart, it says that the device is already in tracking mode. I have no way to see the data or to save it. If I restart it says it will stop the previous activity and start a new tracking, but none of the data from the previous is saved. So either it is VeryFitPro or the device, either way avoid both and spend a little more and get a fit bit, you will be happy you did.

It really doesn’t work too good. Every time I use the it to track my bike riding it shuts off or it goes back to the home page and I can’t get back to the tracking page. I am at the point that I don’t even use it when I ride.

The wearable device and app are bogus. I was given the product as a gift. I’m tech savvy and good with devices, but this one is simply not user friendly. I think the product must be from China. Whoever wrote the language in VeryFitPro certainly doesn’t speak English as their first language. The FAQ says things like: “The back of the hand ring automatically hair green light why?”
They call the bracelet a “hand ring” which is hilarious, but it makes understanding anything you read on VeryFitPro impossible to understand. I was looking forward to reading my sleep data. The device records none, I can’t figure out why, and when I try to read about it on VeryFitPro , it makes no sense because while it’s written in english, it’s just a bunch of words strung together that don’t make sense.
Spend your money on a better product. One that at least hired quality control people to make sure VeryFitPro language and instruction manual are readable & make sense.

There are a hundred items I could outline on how horrible VeryFitPro is, but I would like to post that since the last update VeryFitPro is recording me waking up at 7:47 am everyday. Totally defective sleep monitoring. Also getting start time wrong, but that kind of pales in significance to the bogus end time. Another major flaw I will post is the graphs have no numbers, just plots. Are the unable to employ developers who know how to type?? They have all the data so why no numbering for any of the graphs’ axises?? The bottom is presumably zero, and the top is whatever goal number you setup for your profile. For example my steps graph is 0 at the bottom and 9000 at the top, and I’m supposed to guess at all the daily dots or go into the area where I can view each day separately. If they aren’t going to plot their graphs with numbers why did they bother?? Kindergarten level app. I need real accessible adult numbers. Many other errors and awful featureless probs I could post. Watch is great, super battery life, app shouldn’t be allowed in App Store.

I’m giving VeryFitPro two stars because I think that these basic things should not be a problem for an app that has been out for 4 years. VeryFitPro continuously resets my Personal Info to preset information. I’ve tried to reinstall VeryFitPro and renter my information but nothing has fixed it. I haven’t seen other people complain about this but they may just not know it’s an issue since you have to click around to go to this information. Also I am unable to register an account. It always tells me my network connection is poor when it should not be having issues. I hoped that registering an account would save my personal information correctly and help with the previous issue, but no. Besides these, I think the rest of VeryFitPro is working well. I would appreciate help with the other two issues if possible.

The device is what it is, an inexpensive knock off of a Fitbit. VeryFitPro , that’s what this review is for (as reviews should be in VeryFitPro Store). It presents the information well enough. Graphs are easy to read. Colors aren’t obnoxious. Where it fails is in its usability. Interface isn’t terrible. What would be intuitive, swiping left or right to see a different metric, isn’t there. You tap on the metric name to bring it into focus. When you tap on “Today,” it allows you to scroll left and right, unlike the main screen, to see values for different days. You can even go to that day to bring it up but as an afterthought, they added the words “back to today” in the upper right. There’s a catch though: there isn’t enough room so it actually reads “back...oday.” A simple “back” would have sufficed. Lastly, the details screen is lacking what it purports to even contain. It’s just overalls for the three categories. That is more a function of the device only measuring what it does. But the graphs, especially the heart rate graph, just show overalls, or in the case of heart rate, your resting heart rate each day. Why? It would be nice to switch what the graph shows, but alas, that function doesn’t exist. Missed opportunity. I guess you get what you pay for, it in this case, got for free.

This watch has been my favorite, up until about a week or two ago I believe? Those of you commenting that it doesn’t track your runs or bike rides.. it does have touchy Bluetooth connections and no matter what it says, even after syncing the map won’t show up properly unless your phone is with you and close at all times(on the run/walk/hike ect). Anyways, the reason I am writing a review is bc as of the past two weeks, my workout times are NOT correct. It said an 8 min workout for me today even tho I did 47 mins😂, the graph is correct but not the calories bc the time says 8 mins. I screenshot abs post my workouts online so I hope they fix this!! I honestly have loved VeryFitPro.. I know it can be a wee bit faulty sometimes and you should check the cals on a free calculator website if you’re doing something like a hiit or heart pounding sweat sesh.. bc the calories are majorly underestimated no matter what. The only time it’s accurate is with a walk or yoga(so a lower heart rate)so that’s my tip. I mean it’s an adorable fitness watch! You get what you pay for, those things wouldn’t bother me but just PLEASE FIX THE WORKOUT TIME LOG. Thank you 🙏 🙂(I will update my rating to be better once there’s an update fixing the glitch).

The product description is misleading, as the watch/app doesn’t provide all the data/customizing advertised. Thought I could get more from downloading other apps of the same developer.... nope, they don’t work.
I’d also like to see data by day, week and month. That should be a fairly easy development. Or alternatively, add the ability to export the data so I can plot the points myself.
I’d like to also be able to view all the individual data that is collected on one list. Sometimes I see heart rate data exports to Apple Health app and I can view it that way, but why not in VeryFitPro? And view listed data with its other features like blood oxygen and blood pressure, even GPS. Which, by the way, do not appear accurate. I walked back and forth a few times on a playground and drew with chalk and my “walk” said it was 1.2 miles! No way.
The apps design and controls are not intuitive... even after 2 weeks of daily use I fumble buttons and swipes every time I use VeryFitPro .
It has a lot of promise but needs a lot of basic improvements.

For the price? People can't complain. We knew what we were getting ourselves into when we opted for the $40 fitness watch vs the $200 Fitbit watch.
I'm using an iPhone 6 Plus. VeryFitPro DOES record my sleep (awake, light and deep state), it does record my steps, notifications DO work, music control DOES work and it displays what time and date it is.. that's enough for me. One of the "face displays" is of a snowy mountain and the weather. I wish it would actually display the current weather "snow/rain/fog/sunny" instead and I do wish the temperature would be the actual temperature instead of a fixed temperature reading. With that being said, if you activate the weather feature, you can swipe up to the weather: however, it does not display your locations. Weather app said I was 75*F and the screen said 85*/93* .. guessing for the lowest to highest. Very inaccurate and I don't know what city it was taking that data from.

I've showered with it w/ Zero damage. And I don't know how accurate, if at all, the heart rate monitor is. I was running on treadmill (185 heart rate according to the treadmill). Watch said 105. I had it tighter on my wrist as the instructions suggest when working out. No difference on how tight I made it.

My band and phone are constantly losing connection with each other. I will sync them but within minutes, the band is alerting me that the connection is lost again. Sometimes it happens about 12 times a day. Very irritating!
But there are times when it works for days with no connection issues. When that happens, I enjoy using the technology. It reminds me to get up and move, tracks my steps and length of activity levels.
If the connection bug can be fixed, I will be much better about using it. But I have to admit that when it keeps alerting me that the connection is lost again for the 12th time in an hour when the phone is right next to it? It makes me rip it off, whack it with my hand several times (instead of slinging against the wall or stomping on it), and slam it on the table.

So I’ve had mine for approximately 24 hours now. My coworker has a couple of Fitbit devices we compared side by side and the interface on the device looks nearly identical. There are a few additional functions on this that are pretty cool that are not on the Fitbit! I especially like the picture taking function and the ability to skip forward, backward and pause songs on the Bluetooth connected device. The heart rate monitor and the sleep rate monitors work well and I liked the details you can view on the graphs in VeryFitPro . So the cons... If you allow the gps function to be turned on, you will have to keep your phone on you to track your steps or it won’t count them. (what’s the point of using this if you are going to carry your phone, because then your phone is doing the tracking?) I love having the ability to use the device for weather capabilities, however, this is an area still needing improvement... the weather function requires you to turn on gps permission for updates on weather to push to your tracker. So at this point I’m toggling gps permission on and off so I can use all the features. VeryFitPro has a lot of tools in it and it’s nice. I wish it would have the ability to allow certain functions access to gps so it won’t interfere with step tracking or weather updates. But so far I think it’s worth the money spent!

I bought the watch to measure my sleep and it does this well - most of the time. If you have an early night and wake/get up during the night it does not record the early part of the sleeping. If this could be improved that would be wonderful.
I have been swimming with it and the display started blinking but pressing the button on the watch for a few seconds got it working again.
The greatest deficiency (for me) is that when you change time zone all your statistics recorded in that time zone will be saved in that particular time zone but don’t transfer to your “usual” time zone; e.g. if you live in NY and travel for a week to LA, your LA statistics will not show when you go back to NY and equally your NY statistics won’t show while you are in the LA time zone. As someone who travels much this is disappointing and it would be great if this could be fixed.

VeryFitPro basically works on my iPhone 5 with my wrist device and enables me to access data from it, but there are many problems. The graphic trace of heart rate while exercising used to be very good, very detailed, but now it's gone. The only useful (and seemingly accurate) information with the later app versions is the average and maximum heart rates. Non-exercising heart rate is still nicely shown on a plot, although very coarse (that's OK with me). However, the definitions of "average" and "resting" heart rates are obviously wrong. Often "average" is lower than "resting." I highly doubt the accuracy of "deep" and "light" sleep, and the laughable "wake sleep" often doesn't detect when I'm awake, even when I get out of bed (although it *usually* does the latter). One sees English mistakes in several places. For example, a pop-up says "Get it" when it should say "Got it." VeryFitPro developer needs to get a better speaker/writer of English to help him or her improve it.

I really like this product. My biggest problem with it is the poorly thought out sleep recording function. After you wake up it stops recording your sleep even if you go back to sleep. It only wants to record sleeping once a day. It’s kind of a silly flaw because most people wake up in the middle of the night. Even if you get nine hours total sleep it will say you have only slept for three hours because you woke up once.
This deadly flaw TOTALLY RUINES the sleep function and makes it useless. I almost want my Fitbit to wear out or break so that I can move on to another product that actually has a good sleep function. I don’t even bother wearing it at night anymore.
There needs to be a function or activity setting which the user can switch on called “sleep” just like the “running” function which would force VeryFitPro to continuously record sleep even after waking up.
Please update sleep function or add a sleep feature!!!

by Love-custom-tune

VeryFitPro is generally fine. But I wish you could modify it to include a background refresh like most apps do. I hate that I have to explicitly open and refresh VeryFitPro to record my activity and it doesn’t have the background app refresh option in iPhone settings. Quite a few times I lost my activity record simply because I forgot to sync it to the device. Also, it would be VERY helpful if the notifications for the same message did not repeat themselves on my watch. Once is enough. Sometimes I scroll through notifications and it’s multiples of the same email message. It almost feels like each time when watch reconnects with Bluetooth, it sees the same message as brand new one. That’s very annoying. As much as I like to preview email, I’m thinking about turning off this particular notification because it gets repetitive and extremely annoying. Haven’t noticed the same with text messages.
I think these two features mentioned above would make VeryFitPro better.

by Grizzle360@GBPRKOOL

this app is great! I know how many calories I’m burning, and how I’m doing in everything else. One thing I have to tell you though is that VeryFitPro needs some work. Digitally VeryFitPro is perfect. I think there should be workouts that you guys upload, so that way we can burn more calories when we don’t have time. Just the basics. Like if you don’t have anything to do during your sedentary time and it’s saying for you to move, pop in one of the workouts and bam sedentary time done. It’s should also tell you how many calories you’ve gained. I also think you should be able to walk through how to revive messages on your watch. I’ve had mine for a week and I still don’t know how to revive texts on it!! Which would be nice to know how to do!!! It’s should come with more than one bands. Like one for the office then one for the workout time. App is great but these are my complaints.

by Astridrael

It reads my resting heart rate as 60 or 61 all the time on VeryFitPro , however, I have a health issue with my vagus nerve which will randomly dysregulate my heart rate which is why I bought this watch to begin with. I wanted to be able to chart my heart rate because I often have bouts of tachycardia. Now on the watch itself, it will read my elevated heart rate and it will chart it on the screen, but when I update/sync the watch to VeryFitPro on my phone, it shows a flat resting heart rate of 60 bpm every day, which is completely inaccurate. Please fix this glitch and update the chart screen so that you can zoom in and look at the details of the heart rate, or add a chart similar to the sleep chart at the bottom of the screen because people like me depend on devices like this to be able to show this info to their doctors, otherwise we can’t get treated properly, or at all!

So, this was a major pain to connect to the watch. But once it was synced up, it was pretty good. I have to frequently refresh VeryFitPro so it’ll sync with the watch’s current step count, heart rate data, etc... but it’s been accurate so far. I do like the sleep tracking...it’s cool to see the cycling between deep and light sleep. It even got it right when I woke up for a few minutes and shifted around before going back to sleep. I know this isn’t a unique feature, but I like the sedentary alerts (the little exercising stick figure is cute). All in all, I’m happy with both VeryFitPro and the watch itself. I just wish VeryFitPro automatically synced up with the watch, without the need to regularly refresh VeryFitPro .

Mind you, I’m not doing any serious athletics...I just wanted an extra push to be more active. And it does that. If I was training for a marathon or something, I’d go for a Fitbit.

I got the watch as a Birthday present. I looked at the reviews when I downloaded VeryFitPro and was very apprehensive about what I was given. So far, I’ve been very pleasantly surprised. I’ve never owned a smart watch before, so I have nothing to compare it to. But as far as functioning as it is supposed to, and working with VeryFitPro , I have no complaints. I’m sure if I had already had an expensive watch with all the bells and whistles, then I suppose I might be disappointed. But I like this watch, I like VeryFitPro , and I’m very happy with both.

My only dissatisfaction might be that online, it shows a guy using it for swimming, which is the reason it was given to me for, but there is no swimming activity function. But like I said, so far I’m very happy with it.

by SkyPieces Radio

Tired of hearing people defend this piece of junk by saying “it was cheap, you get what you pay for”. Sure, the device is bad enough, but VeryFitPro doesn’t belong in VeryFitPro Store with other good products. If you change time zones (e.g. vacation), it erases all the days you were gone once you return. If you update VeryFitPro , it erases EVERYTHING! On an update! Heart monitor doesn’t do squat unless you are on that screen on VeryFitPro , and then is is wildly inaccurate. Device doesn’t register exercise without specifically hitting button to start, and even then randomly decides to stop exercise mode, even if your pulse is racing away. The sleep tracker has 3 modes: deep sleep, light sleep, and something bizarrely called “awake sleep.” Which may be the perfect oxymoronic metaphor for this device and app. It’s a glorified pedometer with a dim, unnecessarily-complicated interface. Some of the “features” might as well be stickers. Boo.

by Grumpy44

This application works wonderful giving all one could want or need in a fitness/sleep/weather/heart rate/extras way. Tracks pretty accurately sleep and steps so good there. For Heart rate does the same. 5 star app in those regards but.....

In fact they ONLY thing I don't like is if you travel to another time zone them you get messed up. It seems as if the program/software/fitness monitor can't just change the time zone - say two hours - as on my recent trip - but it must for some reason RESET the watch/monitor completely. With that you lose ALL of your previous information. ALL of it. Back to day one. Steps/sleep/heart data details - everything! That should not happen in my opinion and other frequent travelers will probably agree.

Fix that and I will give this the 5 star rating it desires.

by ErikaMillyG

I basically now only use the watch as a step counter, a watch, and to take a photo with my phone remotely (even though the pic has my finger tapping the watch).

I go to the gym and use several machines. One day I did an hour and 45 minutes. Over 16 miles, and burned over 600 calories. This was based on me inputting my weight on the machines at the gym and actually working out.

The watch only recorded 16 minutes of activity, and about 115 calories burned. The heart rate is always much lower than the gym machines (and I can tell by my own heart beating). I mean as drastic as 160 on the machines (treadmill, bike, stair climber) and the watch says 70. My RESTING HR is supposedly 65, no way it’s only 70 while I’m out of breath.

VeryFitPro translations are terrible. Sometimes it takes 3-4 times of closing and opening VeryFitPro for it to sync to my watch.

One day at the gym, the watch counted my steps during “activity” but every single other day it stops counting steps during activity. That one day was the only day I surpassed my daily goal, when I know I’m actually surpassing it daily.

I’m stopping the activity usage on the watch and just using the stats from the gym machines until I get the expensive version.

by Lanfear1907

I think the watch is great especially given its price range. It records my steps, my sleep data, my activities, and my heart rate (even though I am not sure how exact it is). Also the battery lasts long. BUT! If I dont sync it with the phone before midnight every day, the data on VeryFitPro gets confused and doesnt accurately show the info. For example: If I go back on the calendar f.i to yesterday, it says I took only 300 steps (that’s when I had synced it), but shows 7000 steps if I click on the hour by hour graph (which is the accurate number). I click back to steps target mode, and it goes back to 300 steps. This is VERY annoying.
Also doesnt sync with Health app correctly anymore. I see the data separately but doesnt add numbers up to show the total number.
So please fix VeryFitPro . ASAP. Thanks.

by Dernhelm916

We have had (2) Fitness Tracker, 007plus D115 Concise Style Point Touch Activity Tracker on both my kids 10 & 8 for the last year and a half. We sync them to our phones every few days. The OS does a lousy job accurately tracking the calories. For 12,000 steps Im sure they burned more than 150 calories. And when I tuck them in around 8:30-9 and they wake up at 6:30 am I am sure they do better than 7 hours sleep.
But other than that, its a great watch, great step counter, easy and fast to charge, easy to wear and durable on my kids. The icons and look match my Fitbit and, having them encourages them to complete with me, each other as well as classmates and their teacher. Please fix the calories and the sleep and they will be just as good as mine.

by Phoebe_Anne

First, I tried removing my first day stats by clearing the cache and resetting wristband. Mowing on my z-turn caused it to say I walked 18,000 steps and I wanted accurate stats. The steps continued to show up after multiple times of resetting wristband AND clearing cache. Removing VeryFitPro and reinstalling it was the only thing that worked.

Next, VeryFitPro refuses to save my correct birthday. My birthday is June 16. It keeps reading June 1, no matter how many times I reset it. Close VeryFitPro and go back in to see the wrong birthday.

Next, the heart-rate measurements are wrong. My weekly average stays the exact same number...my lowest resting heart-rate.

And lastly, it records sleep as total time lying down, not sleeping. And only at night. The total sleep should be the deep sleep and the light sleep added together without adding the middle of the night awake times. I have to manually add that in my head to see if I got enough sleep or not. And I often nap in the afternoon. It would be nice to add that to my sleep totals and get an idea of the quality of my naps.

The interface could definitely use a user-friendly upgrade. So far I am wholeheartedly disappointed.

by Bears0

Everything seems to work except the heart rate. Haven’t tried the sleep cycle thing yet. I really wish it had an option to show snapchat notifications and not just apps i never use. I would give five stars if that could be added. I also wish there was actual directions built into VeryFitPro . Found some hidden functions that I wouldn’t have found if I wasn’t observant. Holding your finger on the button while the screen with the “running man and arrows” starts a countdown timer and puts the watch in stopwatch lap mode. Do the same to exit. Some misspelled words and weird grammar but the creator is not english so that’s okay to me. Needs more features that are advertised on the packaging and websites it’s sold from
