Does it count how many calories you burn?

Yes it does. It goes on how fast your heart is beating and how long the workout was. I find it is pretty accurate. Just don't shake your hand while you are doing the pulse.

Although I did order the heart rate monitor the order was cancelled by the shipper and never arrived so I have no opinion about the product.

It tracks an "estimated" amount I think based on your height/ weight, and adds to this number based on your steps. So, yes, it records calories burned even while you sleep.

Yes you do . It counts calories by heart rate. It is comfortable and you won't even know you have it on.

Nope. You have to find an online calculator to calculate calories burned based on heart rate.

Yes. Calories is one of the items it monitors and shows on the screen. I've never ridden with it displayed, though. I usually have the 'clock' or 'distance' on display.

If you want an accurate read on number of calories burned, steps taken, distance walked in a day then yes...but I only wear during my workouts to get a sense of what I've done during that workout. It's really up to you.

It DOES take the Heart Rate Monitor into consideration. The vivofit estimates calories burned from activity in addition to resting calories (aka metabolic calories, aka being alive) calories. WITHOUT a Heart Rate Monitor the activity calories are based on steps (and height/weight/age/gender). WITH a Heart Rate Monitor the activity calories take heart rate into consideration. So at the end of the day you have a pretty accurate estimate of how many calories you've burned. (Well technically you have to wait until midnight because that's when the steps/calorie count resets.) There is a detailed review with more info here: http://www.dcrainmaker.com/2014/03/garmin-vivofit-review.html#how-calorie-tracking-works

Yes. There is a weight setting and it does count your calories. What I like most is that you won't be overwhelm with features.

Yes it sure does. It tells you the amount of calories that you have burned and is read as kcalories.

No, it does not count calories. It acts as a stopwatch and counts your heart rate.

No, but the ability to log your activities has a section where you can chart non-walking activities. If your bike is at the gym you should be able to estimate how many calories you burn, as most gym bikes have this. Then enter it as an activity along with the calories and you can make it a "favorite" so you can enter it each time.

Yes, if you connect it to My Fitness Pal it will tell you you have burned so many calories and now have them to enjoy! There is a fork and knife on the UP application that you can put your foods eaten into. I haven't used it, but it tracks your foods. It is seriously one of my most favorite posessions, and many people at work are now wearing them.

These GPS units will still calculate calories burned based off your speed and distance but it is a minimum calories burned based off the information and not accurate.

In pounds?? No, but there is a conversion chart supplied with the instructions. Just do a little basic math and you're good. As for kCals, after the research I did, I found out there is no real difference between "kCalories" and "Calories" when it comes to weight loss. So just count whatever kCals you've burned as regular calories.

It appears it does not include calorie burning information. The manual at: http://www.omronhealthcare.com/img/shop/hr-100c---2003-hr100cinst-rev-a.pdf does not mention anything about calorie burning setup. I presume that means it doesn't do it.

Yes if you wear the band. This is only a display of your numbers. You MUST wear the Body Media armband. The display will then show your calories burned. It's also easier if you purchase the monthly online service because it will show in graphs, etc. how you are doing, including sleep. Again, this is the display only so it doesn't track anything unless you wear the band. I use a different device now but I have always said that the Body Media armband is the "cadillac" of calorie/step monitors. Amazon sells the armband from Body Media. Check that out to get the full scope of information.

It will count the steps and base the calories, etc on steps, but whether it counts it as workout minutes depends on whether you move for 10 minutes straight without stopping. I have yet to have it pick up any of my workouts as "workout minutes/calories" because I do not move constantly when I am working out. I will admit that I am rather disappointed with this particular feature. I workout at the gym for an hour 2-3 times per week but because of knee issues, I use machines, so there are breaks between the exercises. Thus, my workouts never get recorded as such.
