REVIEW
The Move will
record your steps
during the day and
sync that data with
the accompanying
Health Mate app
progress beyond your goal. It then automatically
resets to zero at midnight every night.
There’s other functionality baked in the Move of
course, but Withings keeps it all in the app, freeing
the watch itself to be simple, minimalist, and easy
to read. That means the fitness tracking never gets
in the way of the timekeeping, and this is a device
you’d be happy to use to replace your existing
watch, rather than merely supplement it.
Fitness tracking
So beyond how it looks, what does the Move actually
do? The core fitness tracking is the previously
mentioned step counter, which is the only bit of data
that sits on the watch itself. The Move will record
your steps during the day and sync that data with
the accompanying Health Mate app, which lets you
change your daily goal, get more detailed information
on your days steps, and look at historic data.
