Runtastic Orbit: fitness tracker from the manufacturer of fitness applications

Nowadays, fitness bracelets / trackers have been able to firmly occupy their niche in the ecosystem of wearable devices. At the same time, manufacturers of such gadgets are divided mainly into two types: the first - those that have long been engaged in the production of accessories and devices for athletes, the second - those that create smartphones and tablets, and decided to try a new niche for themselves.

Runtastic is neither the first nor the second. This organization has long been developing fitness applications for people who lead an active lifestyle. These applications are compatible with a large number of fitness devices, and now with the own Runtastic fitness tracker, which was called the Runtastic Orbit.

Device Feature Overview

Since there are a lot of fitness bracelets, including Fitbit, Jawbone and Nike, you should immediately point out the distinctive features of Runtastic Orbit:

• lighting detector;
• built-in OLED display;
• owner's mood tracker;
• the possibility of swimming / diving under water with a bracelet to a depth of up to 100 m;
• vibration notifications.

Of course, there are other functions that can already be called standard. Judging by the preliminary reviews, it all works, and works quite well:

• Pedometer;
• Determination of calories burned;
• Determination of the distance traveled;
• Sleep quality monitoring;
• Ability to set goals and monitor their implementation (just as a reminder and activates vibration);
• Storing information in the device's memory for 7 days (if you need earlier statistics - it is worth synchronizing the bracelet with the proprietary application);
• Synchronization of data with the owner's mobile device via Bluetooth;
• Smart alarm clock (also vibration). By tracking the phases of sleep, the bracelet awakens a person at the optimum time to wake up.

The owner of the device can set different goals (for example, to go at least 5 thousand steps per day), and with the help of the tracker to monitor the implementation of goals. Runtastic Online recalls the need to start working on one goal or another. The reminder is made with the help of vibration - and not annoying, and you will always feel.

As already mentioned, the tracker can work as a smart alarm clock, tracking the owner’s sleep phase, and starting a wake-up precisely at the time when a person can wake up without problems. The usual alarm clock will “tear out” you from any sleep phase, which does not always have a positive effect on working capacity and general well-being.





Synchronization of the accumulated tracker data can be performed with any of the Runtastic applications, including Runtastic Pro.

The battery lasts for a week of active use of the device.
