steve_b_wales Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Can someone recommend a good, but not too expensive Pedometer? I'm not interested in how many calories I've burnt or how my heart beat is, I just need something to count the steps/strides. I bought a 'cheap' one, (Mudder Pocket Pedometer) which had a good rating. I tried in out today when out walking down the coast with the wife, and, according to the reading, it equates to 361 miles. Not bad for 4 hours!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeddy11 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Original Xiaomi Mi Band 2 Heart Rate Monitor Smart Wristband 22 quid from gearbest but have seen it for 18 on there at its lowest. Have compared it to friends various fitbits etc and its pretty damn good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandspider Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 If you've got an Android phone, then Pacer is good. If you don't take your phone everywhere, then Fitbit or Xiaomi are also good! Fitbit is more pricey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Me matt Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 I can recommend the 'moves' app if your able to carry your phone all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyefor Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) There's a few, do you know which one is the best? The free "Health" one. Very accurate (on iPhone 6s) Edited January 19, 2017 by Eyefor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted January 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 The free "Health" one. Very accurate (on iPhone 6s) Thanks. I have an Iphone 5c (upgrade soon though) and it doesn't support most of the free/paid for apps. There is one that works though, but when I change my phone next month, I'll check out the apps.
