Review on Garmin Vivofit Jr Kids Fitness Tracker in Green Digi Camo with 1-Year Battery Life by Jason Childs

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great activity tracker for kids! - battery life, activity ring, work and sleep tracking and multi vivofit jrs sync with 1 phone

I have overtaken one for each of my kids. I had to buy another band for my older boy because this one was too small for him. We previously tried and sold another brand because: 1. No charging! The battery should last about a year. So far after a few months they become strong.2. Active minute tracking, step tracking and sleep tracking! My kids love the active minute tracking, mostly because it's like my husband's Apple Watch is "ringing" which he's always trying to close. I even buy vivofit 3 to be able to track the rings. I like tracking sleep because when someone is irritable I can see and see "You woke up earlier than usual today!" 3. A website with tasks and coin tracking is pretty cool. We don't use it though consistently.Kids don't have to take them off when showering or swimming, which means they can't forget to put them back on.5.I love that you can sync multiple vivofit jrs to 1 iPhone.When I gave my kids a different brand bought I had to set one up to sync with my phone and the other to sync with my husband It was painful Cons: 1. My older boy doesn't like the animal on the step side I wish there would be an empty function 2. Too bad there wasn't an empty function for the name.3. We had a few sync issues but I think it's my old phone's fault as well, my kids are a bit impatient when it's all about keeping track of tasks and coins. They want it to show up in their vivofit jr immediately after I add them to the app. I wish there was a way to launch devices to sync from just the phone.

Pros
  • inspires confidence
Cons
  • out of fashion
