So I had to discover "pure", without additional app the activity meter for me. The basic functions go indeed without App. Only it's just less fun. Well, not a lot of fun making the thing actually.
This starts with the measuring and cutting the bracelet. As you may indeed be extremely careful that you cut away too much. The wrist and the arm may of course not be thicker possibly due to illness or due to muscles. Otherwise namely have no other choice but to reorder a new bracelet. For what is cut away, happens off and can not be added.
I find it very awkward to create the actual bracelet. Frankly, as it would have done a normal watchband. But it is beautiful, a Sisyphean task. Well, the first calories you have there already
burned until the bracelet sits.
Since there is no Android app is indeed so far, I can not comment on the scope of app functions.
The instructions can not be determined whether the activity meter somehow waterproof or
is splash-proof. Would certainly be an advantage, after all, one should it so wear all day.
Something Fummelarbeit it is charging even the AM in 1400 via USB, due to the curved shape. In addition, one must ensure that one takes even the "right" USB port plug and not the one who has no contacts below.
As mentioned above, work yes the basic functions even without Android and Apple (iOS) app.
It is a step counter indicating the number of steps and this converts into a distance traveled, plus there is still a calorie.
What really bothers me, unfortunately, to the thing is the fact that the screen as 6 seconds to light blue and then black again. I can then to press only one button each time again to make it come back on and I see whether anything has changed.
And that is the crux, in my Samsung S5 a pedometer is built, which really works accurately with me. The display I see every step. Here, presumably without the AdeVital app, I see no single step, but only increased results. After 6 seconds, the display is then again anyway black.
I can check it then really not know if the steps fit, etc. - I can only guess and estimate.
The course contributes to the fact that one of the "fun" is lost in the device.
And for a high-tech toy, it also has very little features. A built-in heart rate monitor had been there not bad. So it is actually "only" a pure pedometer.
Perhaps my opinion about the AM 1400 changes yet, but if a corresponding Android app is published. But so far it is an overpriced toy with little benefit and functions for me.
As have so nowadays smartphones to offer even more "alone", as this activity meter.
Perhaps there will soon be a revised version of the AM 1400 out who is really good.
The hope Never give up, yes.
