I wouldn't say it's totally accessible. The band itself has a display
that you cant read, so you can't use it to tell the time, check your
step count so far or see the alerts you have sent to your FitBit. I
needed sighted help to read the code off of the band's display when I
was setting it up.
It can do lots. I’m still learning it. I can track steps, exercise, sleep,
heart rate, water and food intake, and more

I don't know exactly how long my FitBit Charge HR battery lasts, but
it's more than a couple of days. Have you let it charge all the way up?
Does the FitBit app tell you the battery level is high after you charge
it up? What about some of the settings that warn you'll they'll drain
the battery
I have an HR2 which I like.

I use it exclusively for the vibrating alarm as to not bother my wife in the

I don't do anything special. I just bring up my Fit Bit app, let it sync
with my Charge HR and the current heart rate is like the 2nd field on
the dashboard. I just right flick to get to it.

I'm sorry I haven't gotten back to you sooner, but I was pretty busy over the

Just a thought. And thanks for your answer about the ease of checking the

Hi,
I have the fit bit flex and after I had some sighted help setting up the app,

TThe initial set up screen where you enter your height weight etc., is not
accessible, and then it is accessible. Once that is done, it works very well

I have the fitbit aria. It works well but sometimes takes a few syncs to

Search the archive for "Fitbit". Neil Barnfather did a nice review I think

Anyhow, the app without the device won't do you any good.
