    Misfit Shine - Activity and Sleep Monitor

    • Oh, and it's half the price, comes in cool colors and has all sorts of accessories!Misfit Shine - Activity and Sleep Monitor
    • Great activity tracker!
    • I purchased this with the hopes of tracking my sleep as well as my activity
    • Great activity tracker
    • The Misfit Shine Activity and Sleep monitor comes with one black band, the Misfit tracker device in the color you choose, the battery, the attachment for the wrist band to hold the tracker more securely, and a small tool to help raise the back piece to insert the battery.
    • Thank you Speedo and Misfit for this awesome activity tracker.
    • It is basically just inexpensive activity and sleep tracker and for the price of either, Flash or Shine, I really don't know what people expect
    • BUT while it does a fairly good job at registering the steps, and it breaks up the activity through the day in light, moderate, vigorous it is not accurate at all when it comes to what kind of activity one is doing
    • This is my favorite activity tracker
    • Activity and sleep tracking worked as well as can be expected, however, the fatal flaw in this design is the wristband.
    • Best activity monitor I have ever bought.
    • I really liked it on wrist to use as watch as well as recording daily activity
    • I ran for 30 min and it gave me light activity, I watered my plants for a few min and it gave me intense activity
    • It definitely is the most attractive activity tracker out there; however, if it does an absolutely terrible job tracking your activity then I'm not sure what the point of it is other than as an accessory with pretty cool lights
    • I view my Misfit as a constant reminder to live healthier regarding my activity and sleep patterns.
    • It looks like an accessory to improve retention during strenuous activity is now available, which should solve that problem
    • Also, by the time you buy the accessories to not have to wear it on your wrist you may as well have bought the a better activity tracker.
    • but if you are looking for a good activity tracker I would recommend garmen.
    • For me, it is the perfect Activity Tracker!
    • A basic, well-priced activity and sleep tracker that is waterproof
    • I can honestly say I believe this is an excellent activity tracker and sleep monitor
    • I tried just extending the walk time, but that's not accurate, I'm sure, and brings me to another problem - whether the Shine characterizes activity as "light", "moderate" or "vigorous" seems to depend only on duration, not actual exertion.
    • She can safely use even in agile activities.
    • Pros: Waterproof(?), can track cycling as activity, AestheticsCons: battery operated, Not sure that it really is waterproof
    • I wanted an elegant looking activity tracker because I think that Jawbones and Fitbits look like gumball machine toys
    • Whether it’s a real world vigorous physical activity, moving rocks, working on machinery, cutting thick brush or working out, my Misfit Shine has not failed
    • so you lose your acquired activities.
    • Why?There are three reasons, why the Misfit Shine is not a good activity tracker
    • You have to double tap the device to see the progress and clock or triple tag to tag an activity such as swimming or
    • Helps to remind me to get moving and works with my OC-ness to complete a day's minimum activity, and not to break the streak.
    • Still, a good activity tracker for steps.
    • Thank YouMisfit Shine - Activity and Sleep Monitor
    • This is clearly the best activity tracker out there except for.... the band design
    • Multi activity tracker - probably a nuisance as you first need to set it on your app and then tell the tracker (by clicking it thrice) that it is in a specific mode ( cycle, swim, sleep)
    • Within weeks the activity (3 tap) function became difficult to ellicit with tapping, can't get it to work at all when wet.2
    • There seem to be a few glitches in the software, such as occasional missed sleep data, and one day where it logged all my activity but only awarded me 21 points
    • The shine is a beautiful activity tracker
    • It definitely is the most attractive activity tracker out there; however, if it does an absolutely terrible job tracking your activity then I'm not sure what the point of it is other than as an accessory with pretty cool lights
    • It needs the ability to track more activities, like different types of exercise
    • This is the second inexpensive activity tracker I have returned because of what seem to be design flaws, and I have resolved to shop for them only in brick and mortar stores where I can make sure they work while I am still in the store.
    • I've been in a given day (or week, or month).I also really like the activity tagging, which allows me to switch from walking to a second favorite activity (mine is cycling) just by triple tapping the Shine
    • like sleek design and how the misfit shine monitor my daily activities
    • This is the most attractive activity tracker, but certainly not the most enabled
    • The Misfit Shine Activity and Sleep monitor comes with one black band, the Misfit tracker device in the color you choose, the battery, the attachment for the wrist band to hold the tracker more securely, and a small tool to help raise the back piece to insert the battery.
    • All things considered, for the money it has been a great activity tracker.
    • The Misfit Shine was a good activity tracker until it stopped working
    • Best activity tracker there is
    • I liked that it didn't look like all the other activity monitors out there
    • This is the 4th activity tracker I've owned and by far my favorite.
    • Awesome activity/sleep tracker
    • It record my activities with very reasonable accuracy against my old pedometerThe sleep monitor is not very sensitive as does not record well if you leave your bed for short time or stay awake
    • This inexpensive little activity tracker is great, seems accurate and easy to use, (once you read the directions).
    • It seems quite reliable tracking activity, and he steps and distances seem accurate when walking
    • Oh, and it's half the price, comes in cool colors and has all sorts of accessories!Misfit Shine - Activity and Sleep Monitor
    • Shine also tracks what is important, activity and sleep.
    • Both the device and the app are easy to understand and to use, and allow the user to track activity--and progress--over extended periods
    • You're supposed to triple tap before starting exercise, but I experimentally tried skipping that step and the app still registered it as "intense activity," which is enough for my needs.
    • MISFIT offered to replace, but who wants the aggravation just to monitor activity.
    • Great activity and sleep tracker.
    • Otherwise good activity monitor.
    • Because I synced it daily with my smart phone, I have been contacted by Misfit company and asked if they could send me an activity diary completely free of charge which I received yesterday and it contains very helpful and useful informations like activity log, calendar, sizes, measurements and conversations, food and nutrition, fitness tests and stretches for major muscles
    • It has activity tagging especially like running or swimming which I use
    • So, of what use is an activity monitor that you will likely lose the 1st week?
    • I wish it were better at counting my steps when I'm holding something in that hand, and I wished that activity tracking worked for yoga and dance (as of now, you can add those activities manually but not track them).
    • It is a great activity tracker, seems very accurate and it is very sleek
    • and it seems fairly accurate on tracking all other activity for me
    • If you need a reliable activity tracker that will give you accurate data consistently, pick something that might be more expensive, but will actually work.
    • Great activity and sleep tracker.
    • The Shine registered no activity at all during my 60 minute pilates reformer lesson (less cardio, but light sweat, muscle fatigue), so I had to manually record that as yoga, since there's no pilates option.
    • There are very limited activities listed on the app too
    • This is the best activity tracker for now because it is more versatile than any of its competitors
    • Honestly, this is an amazing watch/activity tracker/sleep monitor/conversation starter
    • The Misfit Shine is practical and cool, it gives accurate information regarding your activity and also see, which was what interested me most as I was convinced that I was not sleeping well and this proved when I was restless or awake
    • Don't use your money on this, as totally cool as it seems.
    • It's so much more stylish than a FitBit, as well as being cheaper.-Accuracy
    • I was really hoping this would work out as I needed an activity tracker for the swimming pool.
    • I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine.
    • Its just as accurate as when I walk or run
    • My only criticism is that it pops out of the wrist band and it very easy to lose (as you will see from other reviews)
    • I always wear it on my wrist but there is the option of wearing it as a sort of lanyard type thing as well as you can buy additional pieces to wear it as a necklace etc
    • I bought the so-called "Speedo" version of Shine from Misfit site directly in Sep as soon as it's available, and was highly expecting it
    • Very unhelpful as by then you have to start trying to sync all over again
    • Ok, so I tried just now and it worked as it should, showing progress and then time
    • This is by far my favorite fitness tracker I've tried both for the sleek fit and comfort as well as for accuracy
    • A few times it worked as it should, tap twice, show progress
    • As per other reviews I feel the device is let down by the poor design/quality of the strap which I very rapidly learned not to trust as it doesn't secure the Shine safely
    • After reading the numerous reviews and looking at other activity monitors I decided to go with the Misfit Shine as I wanted something that would integrate with my business clothing, provide accurate readings for activities, monitor my sleep cycle, and I really wanted something that was waterproof.
    • I find that I really do want to meet my activity goals, both for sleep as well as for physical activity
    • The item doesn't work as it will not hold a charge.
    • An honest waste of $75 :C

    • n’t miss it that much
    • n’t realize how much this type of display would annoy me
    • I love the band and t chose the Misfit a second time because it doesn't have to be recharged and is more elegant looking than most fitness tracker.
    • Fashionable - I upgraded to the metal mesh band and it looks just like a watch and goes pretty well with my
    • but I strong believe the flexibility in its design cause serious fault in the integrity of the gadget in the rubber enclosure
    • I will admit, I lost my first Shine at work when it fell out of the wrist band, however I really like the new band with the locking mechanism
    • A texturized surface and better retention system would make this device more useful and vastly extend the service life by preventing premature loss such as I and so many other reviewers experienced
