Bio-JACKED, not Bio-hacked!
The science based, innovative functionality of Amazon’s Halo fitness wristband represents a major paradigm shift in AI wearables for personal fitness, wellness, and self-actualualization. If you can handle a little AI “tough love” scrutiny and constructive feedback ( including personalized,multidiscipline self-improvement plans or “labs”), then this is the next must have wearable for you! That is, given the additional proviso, you can check your over-inflated, paranoid ego at the door. No one (except you) cares about your random bio-physiological and tonal sampling the device uses to help you become a better you. Ergo, to get the most out of this mildly invasive, cutting edge technology, I’d advise you “let go, and let god” in the Halo Cloud work it's mojo on your data!

So far so good!
I have only had the halo for a few days but I really love it. I am gathering information on my habits better than any device I have used previously (Fitbit, knock off fitbits, my phone). It’s beneficial if you are trying to monitor your health habits. But as someone who deals with mental illness, it immensely helps to understand and track my moods to be able to give quantitative information to my doctors. And with not having a screen to look at, it is very easy to forget I am wearing it which provides less distraction throughout the day. I recommend it to anyone who wants to understand their physical and mental health better.

Love this fitness tracker
I had a Fitbit and really liked it. I had an earlier model so it didn’t provide a lot of details when tracking sleep, etc. The Halo fitness band provides a LOT of details and tracks your sleep, work outs, moods, etc. it also provides great details in these areas. As well, there are a lot of options for work outs and so much more. Track your health, scan your body fat. It’s super easy to use and to navigate. I LOVE it!
