I do walk/run intervals. Does this keep track or do I still need my Gymboss?

Yes it does. You can set it up as needed, by going to Run Options > Run/Walk > [select ON] > enter time for each interval. Keep in mind that it will always be set to the RUN/WALK function until you turn it off.

I do walk/run as well. The watch tracks distance, elevation, and pace speed. If you are behind, on, or ahead of the pace you set, the watch will alarm, and show which you are. Good Luck!!

Yes and No. It will track your distance for the day and tell you what the number of steps equate to in miles. Online it will show a breakdown of how much time was sitting, walking slowly-moderately and/or running. If you make note of your number of steps prior to your run and immediately afterwards, you can figure out your distance by googling the equation.

No, It starts counting as soon as you start walking or running. It stops when you start and continues as soon as you start again.

Ninety-nine intervals and then you have to hit the start button again....I used it on Sunday for a half marathon to keep track of my run/walks...

Not unless you set all those intervals up seperately and keep changing/restarting. The Gymboss minimax has that capability.

No subscription needed. Just set up your account online with a password. As far as tracking activities, it only automatically tracks your steps taken and tells you how many calories you burn. You have to put in which activities you do each day, and it helps you determine calories burned and then you can log them in.

It tracks how many steps you have taken, how many miles you have walked, and calories burned in one day. It can also track your sleep patterns. You receive a weekly activity report via email. I just love it and it encourages me to walk more because I hate to get my average for the week down.

Yes! The download after your run is amazing. It is also much more accurate than devices that count your steps/revolutions bases on your stride/wheel size.

For others who have this question, I use Cyclemeter, and have it customized for Mountain Biking activites as well as working out in the gym. It did require a one time upgrade fee of $5, but that unlocked everything that other apps charge annual subscriptions for. I switched to this from the MapMy series and have loved the combo heart rate + exercise/fitness tracking.

This answers seems to contradict the listing and the advertising on the Jarv's box which says "Tracks heart rate, distance, pace, and more!" Also, if you use Runtastic Pro, you can use the the History Add function to download length of time and Calories burned, so will the right app download more?

Nope. All you can do is track your fitness while you're working out and see the time when you're not.

You can enter email addresses for people to find you. They get an email once you start your live tracking and they can follow you along your whole run. The only down side is that for live tracking you need to carry your phone on you for the run. The Garmin connects via Bluetooth to your phone and it uses that signal. I have gotten used to carrying my phone in my FlipBelt, so it's not all that bad any more. I run alone so it's probably best that I have my phone anyway.

It will track movement consistent with movement already being recorded from the location you wear your Vivofit (assume wrist), so your arm movements on the elliptical will record the same as your arm movements while striding if you pump air while doing so. I have not gotten to the depth of trying to set up particular exercise (swimming, elliptical, weight training) that has a distinct burn rate that differs from "standard" activity, like I had on my Fitbit.

Yes it does. It tracks duration, distance, avg.pace, avg. speed, max speed, and calories.

Yes. You have a choice of methods. Fitbit may count "steps" while you are using the elliptical machine, but the other way would be to track "Activities" where "elliptical - high resistance," "moderate" and "low resistance" are choices. You would input the amount of time and resistance level, and Fitbit calculates calories burned. It would also negate any steps counted during the time period.

I usually power walk anyway, with jogging added in. And it counts my steps from the time I put it on in the morning until I take it off, even after doing my walks.

It only tracks arm movements. You should be using your arms for correct form on a treadmill.
