Fitbit to add multiple tracker support


This week Fitbit said it is release an update that adds support for multiple devices within the app. Users can sync up to one of each of their tracker models, so up to six devices. The idea is you can wear a wrist band for some exercises, but then switch to the waistband/pocket tracker for daily walking.

Also new for iOS is a MobileTrack feature that allows you to use your iPhone step counting feature in the Fitbit app. The idea is if you forget your tracker you can still keep count.

The MobileTrack feature seems a great idea. I'm usually pretty good about remembering my tracker, but on days I don't I try to keep my phone on me. Then I'd manually enter in the steps. This would seems to save me the extra task of manual entry on the website.
