GRV Pedometer Watch No Bluetooth Steps Counter Simple Fitness Tracker

It is comfortable, easy to configure and fulfills its function very well. It has good battery life and an excellent value for money

I've bought this watch a few times and have loved it, but eventually the band rips and I have to buy a new one. I love that it tells me the time and tracks my steps without having to use and app or my phone. However, I bought it again when my last band ripped and they have "upgraded" it and it is worse. The watch face is bigger than before and doesn't fit right, the watch comes in three parts and the band comes completely apart, it is not tracking my steps correctly/consistently (stuck on 120 all day one day and not accurate another day), you charge it differently which leaves an odd imprint on the arm, and the face of the watch does not seem to work correctly. I loved the old version, and would just recommend they go back to that with a more substantial material for the band. This new version is no good. It will be returned.

I'm updating my review... (original review below) After my initial watch had issues past the return period, customer service reached out to me to exchange the watch with a replacement. Bravo for that. Works great, no issues. I like the simple functions, but know there are some quirks on usage to realize aren't a failing watch: 1. If it's not charging: Wipe off the contacts and make sure you insert them where the metal is facing the plastic tongue inside the USB plug that houses the metal connection. The watch will display a green charging indicator on its face. (It's easy to insert it upside down where it can't charge. 2. There's some combination of holding and pressing that displays the computer code (for me, accidentally) used for diagnosing issues (see picture). It's nothing. Just hold and press the select circle on the watch until it goes away. Original review: I like everything about how this looks and its functions. I'm just really sad that it quit working after a month. It won't charge any more.

I wanted a simple pedometer that went around my wrist. I didn't want to spend a bunch of money. I wanted something that was light and easy to use. I got them all in this Fitness Tracker. I have tried a number of fitness trackers from the most expensive to the freebees from the local hospital. None had on them what I wanted or they bothered me, my pulse rate, my arm etc. I went looking for a simple easy to use tracker that wouldn't interrupt or bother me. I found it in this. I can count steps, track mileage, the date & time, how many calories I have burned (never enough but I digress) even my sleep time if I choose to wear it 24 hours. You do need to have patience to set up the watch and read the instructions. It is easy to set the date and then have it at 2036 versus 2022. So set up can be a challenge if you go too fast or have fat fingers. The battery lasts about a week so just charge it ever 5 or 6 days. Other than that enjoy it. Perfect for kids, people that do not want too many apps in their life or you want something lightweight. Seems to be water resistant. Have not tried to see if it is water proof. Enjoy

The actual tracker is okay- it doesn't record as many steps as a Fitbit (I literally wore both on the same wrist for an entire day, this one tracked about 1500 steps less than the Fitbit over the course of the day). I like that it doesn't use bluetooth- we have concerns about Bluetooth usage, but also, it's way less stressful to track steps without an app. I can't see previous days steps, which could be a turnoff for some folks, but I kind of love it because it takes the pressure off. Each day is its own day and all I have to do is my best. Other things to note- the battery life is terrible compared to the Fitbit, but I've learned is probably comparable to a lot of apple watches. Best I can get is about 2 days with this device, but since I opt not to wear it at night, it's not a big deal for me. It seems there is a sleep timer, but it doesn't track your sleep like other brands, which again, is a plus for me, but could be a negative for someone else. What I like the least about this watch is how dirty it's gotten and will not come clean. Granted, I chose the white band, and my Fitbits white silicone band wasn't much better, but I could at least purchase a new band with that company. I haven't yet found an option to purchase a new band without purchasing a whole new tracker, which isn't very expensive... but seems wasteful. Also, I have scuffed the face a bit, which I also did with my Fitbit so that has more to do with my own clumsiness than the design itself. It was pretty easy to set up, and the simple design face was not a problem for me. There are not extra options for face styles, which might matter to some buyers but I don't mind. All in all, I would purchase again (and I might for my child) but not a light colored band. I like the app free, Bluetooth free option for tracking steps, and the battery life is a little annoying but not terrible. I would quickly raise this to 4 stars if I were able to purchase a new band without buying a whole new watch, but I think it would need a few other things improved to reach 5 stars (primarily the battery life and improved step count).

I've been really impressed with this fitness band! It has a sleek, lightweight, and comfortable design that's perfect for wearing all day. The display is bright and easy to read, so I can quickly check the time, date, and other important information. It also helps me keep track of my daily activity, making it easier to stay motivated and reach my fitness goals. The battery lasts a long time, which means I don't have to charge it constantly. It's simple to use, reliable, and offers great value for the price. If you're looking for a stylish and practical fitness tracker, I definitely recommend giving this one a try!

The frustrating part is the programming. It is very sensitive when it comes to moving from one program to another and inserting your data. My first several attempts were a nightmare of frustration and I had to hold myself in check to prevent myself from tossing it at a wall or stomping on it. That was with the first watch. But that pattern repeated with the second watch which arrived a week later. For accuracy, here is the comparison. I am utilizing this watch primarily as a pedometer. I put both watches, same brand, both fully charged, onto the same wrist and went onto a stepper. The results were the purple said 3948 steps while the green put the steps at 3388. The difference is 560 steps. That is a lot. And I don't know which - if either - is accurate. (Steppers are notoriously inaccurate, even if they appear to work - mine doesn't - hence the wrist pedometer.) Whichever wrist you wear your watch on, that arm needs to be in swing motion for the pedometer to function. The color of the band is true to what's on-screen. I ordered the green then followed that up with the purple. In dim light the band looks more brown than purple, but in light it is definitely purple. Contrary to the initial programming, after that it's functional and easy to flip through your stats. If you're going to charge into a socket, you need the adapter but otherwise the watch charge mechanism is on the unit. There is no cord involved. That requires removing the band on that side. But the band is easy to push on and pull off. Not fancy but a sleek design that also has a variety of band colors available. Lightweight. Not chunky. No app or cell connection. Not SMART. It's an independent unit so you access your results immediately. UPDATE: Still have the green one but the purple strap one needed the battery charged as I was using that more often. The battery was half empty. I used the same adapter for charging as last time but went through several outlets and it did not charge. In fact, it dropped further on battery usage. This is a return item. We'll see what the lifespan of the green strap watch pedometer is.

I've been trying this device for a few days. It works for some very specific use cases. It does not produce substantial EMF's as it has no BlueTooth or wifi. It requires no smartphone or app and does not present privacy concerns with an app provider monitoring everything you do. It provides clock, steps, distance, calories, and a manual sleep timer. Note that any device that's measuring calories without an accurate heart rate count is only giving a gross approximation for an "average" person of the gender and weight you enter and "average" walking. Even with heart rate, it's an approximation. This device does not measure heart rate. High accuracy calorie counting requires treadmill / oxygen use testing. As such, I don't care about the calorie counter. I was mainly interested in step counting. If you input your accurate stride length, your distance numbers should be good IF the step count is accurate. Note that this is NOT a GPS device. The problem is that the step count is frequently NOT accurate. According to my testing with a manual tally counter (clicker), the device records steps while walking for exercise pretty well. It was accurate to within just a few steps out of 100. But, the problem is that it's not accurate when not exercising. WHAT? you say. It records phantom steps when it shouldn't, and this falsely inflates the step count. For example, if get out of a chair and go to the bathroom, do my business, wipe my nose, wash my hands, dry my hands, and return to my chair, the unit will record about twice as many "steps" as it should. All that hand movement messes it up. Also, it recorded several hundred bogus "steps" while driving in my car for about 7 miles on common paved roads. The cumulative effect is that the step count, distance count, and calorie count are way too high at the end of the day, assuming I go to the bathroom a few times and drive a few times. So, here's the only way I can see using this device. Say you are actually going to walk for exercise. You note the step count before starting. Go do your walking. Note the step count at the end. Then subtract the two numbers to get the net, which should be pretty accurate. Otherwise, ignore the step count during the day. The unit has no reset button, but the count resets every night. It does not keep any long term records. I'm probably going to return this and try a belt / lanyard / pocket pedometer from RealAlt. This unit also has a feature where it turns on the display light when you rotate your wrist. That's OK if you want to read the unit. But, my wife said it turned on during the night while I wasn't trying to access it. Apparently, this also happens with the sleep timer on. So, this might bother you or your mate while you're sleeping. If the RealAlt pedometer is not as subject to false readings and / or if I can reset it on demand, I'll probably use that instead. Based on my reading, many pedometers and fitness trackers, even expensive ones, are subject to these false measurements. If the other one also accumulates false steps, I'll have to reset it each time I exercise, and the daily and 30 day accumulated numbers will be wrong. Note that comparing one pedometer to another isn't very useful. The only way to know if one is accurate is to compare it to a manual tally counter where you click it on every step. Or, you can click it on every other step and multiply by two. This tells you if it's properly counting steps when it should. Then, you can check the pedometer to see if it gives false readings when it should not be counting steps. If you think you can live with these limitations for this unit, it might be useful to you. Otherwise, you may wish to look elsewhere. Note that it is VERY hard to find fitness trackers that don't produce EMF's. The Bluetooth and / or WiFi can be turned off on some of them, but not all. Almost by definition, the smart bands and smart watches are going to be pretty dependent on their wireless functions and connection to a smartphone or tablet. Ron

とにかくコンパクトでデザインがシンプル♪どんな服装にも合い素敵でした！ 防水なので濡れても安心で Bluetoothがなく、アプリのインストールもない！キッズにはありがたい お年寄りやこども向けに作られているので 操作もかんたんでした 歩数計やすいみん時間も記録できるのも良かったです この機能でこの価格はとてもおすすめです

Se lo compré a mi hija que no tiene celular y tuvo problemas para cargarse casi desde nuevo. No lo recomiendo, no resiste uso leve.

操作はカンタンですが、充電してからの使用時間か物足りない

母にプレゼントしたのですが気に入ったみたいで大事に使い続けてくれていました。 今回バンドが切れてしまい再購入しました。

使い勝手が悪いです。最初の設定でストレスマックス。しかも、充電しにくいし、数時間しかもたない。まったく使い物になりませんでした。
