Does Striiv play have to be used with a computer connection, or can it be used as just a pedometer and I record the steps taken each day..

You can also charge it with the cable device you plug into the wall lille used for kindle but it downy update it as said by one other customer

Striiv has to be updated periodically by being plugged into a computer. It's also how you recharge your Striiv and takes minimal time. The Striiv is, by far, the best pedometer I have ever used.

It does bug you to synch every day, but you can easily ignore that and use without synching. Synching online does not really do much for you except update the app periodically and charge the device. But you can charge to a plug as well. It tracks you by week and month on the striiv, itself.

Yes but you will not get the extra points for the game on it and the computor keeps daily tabs way back you can see

That's how I use it. Just set the date and time and set your stride length and Striiv will record your steps, miles, calories, stairs automatically. The stride length is personal. I find I take longer steps so although I am 5'5", I had to set my stride length at 5'9". I love the weekly and monthly stats that are kept by Striiv and that is all I really care about right now.

Yes. You get a day's total of steps. It also records what it terms "ex time" which I guess they mean is the amount of time you exercise.

If you have a simple dirt path to train on, not rocky, not full of holes to walk around or take a long step over, no logs to climb over or creep under, no steep inclines that shorten your step, then Yes, you can use any pedometer. But a real trail, no.

Yes, you can use it without using one of the workouts in the app. It comes with a "Free Form Workout" in which is just monitors your hear rate and tracks your GPS location.

Agreed with David. Just to clarify one point, you can select the activity, running, biking swimming etc. type before you start. The activity types is then uploaded with the activity. Great product BTW, love mine.

Hi there - I am not really sure what you mean, but if your question is if this heart rate monitor comes with a USB connection to your computer, then the short answer is YES. It comes with a "Movestick Mini", which is basically a wireless USB connector for your computer that you can use to connect with the Suunto Quest. Upon connection, all data from your workout will automatically be transferred for you to view through the website Movescount.com. You have to spend some time initially to create an account with Movescount.com but once everything is in place, you can connect the Suunto Quest at anytime and transfer data to your account. I hope this answers your question, if you have any more queries feel free to ask.

Doesnt have feature to download onto your computer, you can just review the saved workouts on the watch itself. Its a very minimal i guess you could say "starter" gps watch. The best for uploading to computer and keeping track that way are garmin or nike gps watches.

Yes. It tracks steps, active minutes, calories burned and distance. You can input a stair em tracker, but I haven't done so.

I have not had the pedometer but I looked into it because prior to buying my play, I only had an iPhone 4 (not a 4S). The play WILL NOT WORK with a 4, so if you don't have at least an iPhone 4S and don't want to upgrade your phone, buy the pedometer. The main differences are with the play and the iPhone app you can invite your friends and see them on your leader board. Who's winning for the day. That kind of thing. Your friends don't even have to have the play. Just the app. My understanding with the pedometer is you can only compete against other people that have the pedometer. Also the play doesn't have the donation piece that the pedometer has. What you could do is try just the app (before buying the play) to see if you like the app interface. I did it that way first. I liked the app but didn't like always having to carry my phone with me to log my steps so that's when I upgraded to the play. The play also track stairs where the app alone did not. Hope this helps even just little.

It does work without a connecting device. Every day you can see your steps, calories burned, etc. But I don't think you can track it more than one day only on the device as it resets every midnight. I was just looking into the apps and you might need a mac for the app. I suggest you contact Striiv cares (just google them) and talk to them. I am unsure of all the logistics but I do know that they are very responsive to questions. Good luck.

Apparently so!!! I've been using the pedometer for several months. I don't really use the USB and it's still there!!!

It is not programmable except for stride length. Instructions recommend daily resetting and doesn't specify maximum steps/distance the device can record. I record my daily totals so I know where I need to adjust my activity levels to reach my goals.

It comes with a charger and computer connection. Nice pedometer and works for 3 - 4 days without charge. Only problem is that to see a graph of activity it is only on the unit, and can not be downloaded or printed. Hope this was helpful.

It seems to record less movement than the origional. I walked my neighborhood and recorded various distances so near the end of the day I could walk what I needed for my daily goal. This seems to register less staps

Yes. This pedometer has settings for height, weight, and also your step stride length. It can track your activity all day to give you results for the entire day. It also has a memory function to keep past re-outs.

It can work without the app, but you will need the app to get it set up initially. I do not know if the app is available for PCs. The Striiv app is available for iOS & Android phones.

This ped does measure distance & calorie count, but it also does a bunch of other stuff that I don't need. It also is set up to show the time of day... but that has become wrong, probably due to being shut down for awhile... and now I can't figure out how to reset it to the correct time.
