Reviews around look (5.00 of 5)

  • The Misfit app is great -simple, good-looking, and I was easily able to find my friends who also have the Shine 2, and compare scores with them.
  • So, after a few days, Misfit contacted me via email and apologized for my loss, and they said my Misfit was still under warranty, and after proof of purchase and loss, they sent me a new Shine 2, and this one looks and works amazing
  • It also seems the o-ring that secures the Misfit via the groove around its circumference is tighter, so there is less chance of the tracker popping out if you manage to bash it on the edge of something
  • Misfit Shine and now Misfit Shine 2.The product itself is very good and sharp looking, I love the look and the simplicity of it
  • It also seems the o-ring that secures the Misfit via the groove around its circumference is tighter, so there is less chance of the tracker popping out if you manage to bash it on the edge of something

Reviews around way (4.21 of 5)

  • You can add a swimming diary entry, but when I did so using the stopwatch timer, it calculated 84 calories burned for a 64 minute swim, and there is no way to enter calories burned from a calorie calculator.
  • Other than that, I do get a lot of people asking about it as they like the way it
  • EXTREMELY annoying and immediately turned me off of the company and product, but like I said, I love the way this product looks and I really wanted to have it
  • So I'm left with no secure way to carry this throughout the day
  • I'm now convinced that the only safe way to handle this tracker is to wear it on a bracelet during the night, that way the worst you can do is lose it in bed

Reviews around sleep (4.18 of 5)

  • those being: a slim non obtrusive design, water resistant enough to shower and bath and not worry, sleep tracking, alarm, as well as text and email notifications.
  • Last but not least the Misfit Shine 2 can be used as a remote button with the Misfit Link App (iOS and Android) as well as syncing your activity and sleep data to the cloud based service via the Misfit App (iOS, Android and Windows (PC & Mobile).So very few trackers provide this all-in-one package
  • Insofar as I can tell the sleep tracking is accurate at least regarding my sleep and wake times
  • The sleep tracker works pretty well and needs a little adjustments but pretty spot on
  • It seems to track sleep well, and tracks pickleball and racquetball activity accurately when it's tied to his shoe

Reviews around service (4.10 of 5)

  • I contacted Misfit customer service and was told on March 30th that they were shipping me a replacement band but after weeks of back and
  • What I've always loved about the misfit is the bike and swim tracking, it's lightweight, great customer service, battery and not charge, syncs to my sparkpeople account and so much more
  • Thank you Misfit for having such great customer service and standing behind your product
  • I worked with the company and had excellent customer service to solve my problem
  • Misfit customer/tech service is a complete joke

Reviews around tracker (3.77 of 5)

  • The tracker itself has already fallen out of the band almost a dozen times
  • Like many others, I love the tracker and the app (Android) but hate the band
  • I really love that this device doesn't scream "fitness tracker" to everyone who sees it
  • Other than the band issues, it's a mediocre fitness tracker.
  • If you look back at the 2015 Shine 2 product, which is now listed as discontinued, you will see that the majority of the reviews all said the same thing: love the tracker, HATE the band

Reviews around feature (3.46 of 5)

  • I love my Shine 2, its a great watch and fitness tracker, but my favorite feature is the vibrating alarm - my spouse likes it even more!
  • Any enhanced features Moov offered seemed like gimmicks
  • For the price, I truly like all the features on this Shine 2
  • I love the misfit app and the capability it provides to link to other health apps (i.e. fitnesspal), the gentle vibrating alarm feature, and various activity settings.
  • Best tracker, new features like color lights and vibrate if sedentary are great

Reviews around app (3.37 of 5)

  • The app is good but not great; it's pretty limited in its reporting
  • The app works well, though I haven't tried the lap swimming upgrade, and overall it's a great tracker.
  • The app was great, and overall experience was very good
  • The App is mostly great, but has several shortcomings:---------------------------------------------------------------------------1
  • Well it functions fine and the app is not as good as the UP which is the only thing I can compare against as I have both

Reviews around band (3.15 of 5)

  • The band is comfortable and flexible, but not cheap feeling
  • Like many others, I love the tracker and the app (Android) but hate the band
  • Thankfully customer service is excellent and the new band makes the misfit very secure
  • This is especially terrible because the band that the Shine 2 comes with is pretty cheap
  • So far the new and improved band has not been an improvement

Reviews around doe (3.10 of 5)

  • It also seems the o-ring that secures the Misfit via the groove around its circumference is tighter, so there is less chance of the tracker popping out if you manage to bash it on the edge of something
  • Alarm is a great idea but not powerful enough to wake me up, though it does work if I'm just snoozing
  • The Misfit Shine 2 does everything that the previous Misfit Shine did and so much more with the same elegant, yet slightly slimmer, styling
  • The same can be said for the Misfit Ray- they advertise it with lots of cool accessories/options and then don't release them, although the Ray has more options for bands right now than this Shine 2 does
  • The Shine 2 does look nicer and only requires a light tap

Reviews around design flaw (1.87 of 5)

  • When it’s working as
  • great!I only wish the Misfit had a few more activity options
  • This product has serious design flaws: the round thingie falls out when you bump it a certain way
  • This seems like a design flaw to me if the only people who can replace the battery apparently know a trick or two I don't!
  • I contacted their support group and they pretty much just patted me on the head and said "too bad".Do not buy this until they fix the obvious design flaw that allows the tracker disc to fall out

Reviews around purchase (1.69 of 5)

  • This is my first negative product review, I have had this device for less than 3 months, the tracker kept popping out of the band, well the inevitable has happened, tracker popped out and I cannot find it, I am left with the band and feel so terrible getting this product at the price point I could have purchased 2 other products
  • I do not recommend purchasing this until they figure out a good way to secure it on the wrist.
  • When it’s working as
  • I regret this purchase.

Reviews around bite (1.69 of 5)

  • Now I am a bit afraid to wear it knowing that it can pop out
  • I would assume 3-4 months if you are lucky, although I guess it depends on if you use the notification for phone calls and texts which probably drain quite a bit more than normal.
  • That frustrated me a bit
  • great!I only wish the Misfit had a few more activity options

Reviews around website (1.54 of 5)

  • great!I only wish the Misfit had a few more activity options
  • Unable to find instructions on the Misfit website on how to reinitiate pairing, I thought I'd cycle the power on the Shine by removing its battery, so I watched the manufacturer's video on how to replace the battery
  • I bought my tracker through the Misfit website, and it was a great value at only $9.99
  • The Misfit website had trouble shooting information, but that did not work
  • The website is useless, and customer service just referred me to the website.

Reviews around unit (1.54 of 5)

  • Just to see how they would react I submitted a complaint on the fitbit forum (the unit claims rain resistance)
  • After losing the unit out of the band several times over the past year, and finding it, I've finally lost it for good.
  • I answered all of their questions and explained about the additional difficulties (the apparent inaccurate logging, and not being able to remove the unit's back; my wife may have been willing to live with the inaccuracy, but without being able to remove the back, when the battery eventually died the unit would be worthless).A day later, after getting no further response from Misfit Support, my wife returned the Shine 2 to the store where she'd purchased it.
  • great!I only wish the Misfit had a few more activity options
  • The unit keeps popping out of the band and finally lost it at the game last week
