Nike+ FuelBand app review: the official companion app for the Nike+ FuelBand device

Reviews

Introduction

If you own a Nike+ FuelBand device then this is a must-have app for you, providing you with a wide selection of features that work wirelessly in tandem with your FuelBand device to help you track your achievements and connect with other users via Facebook and Twitter.

If you don’t already know what Nike+ FuelBand is, it is a device which essentially measures your day-to-day activity and converts it into something called NikeFuel. Every step you take and every calorie you burn is meticulously tracked and counted and you can connect your Nike+ FuelBand to this app for even more functionality.

Fuel Your Ambition

With this app, you have the ideal mobile companion to your Nike+ FuelBand, with the ability to automatically synchronize all of your in-app information to your online Nike+ profile.

This is great for when you unlock achievements, NikeFuel, and badges because you can much more easily share this information – and boast about it, of course – with your friends and family online via Facebook and Twitter.

What’s more, connecting with Facebook friends who also use a Nike+ FuelBand and this app enables you to see how you stack up against one another; this is perfect for spurring each other on with a little friendly competition to keep your motivation levels sky high.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Wirelessly connects with your Nike+ FuelBand
  • Unlock achievements, NikeFuel, and badges
  • Share your accomplishments with friends and family via Facebook and Twitter

Cons

  • Some users may potentially encounter issues with the accuracy of the Nike+ FuelBand device; however, this appears to be an isolated case for one user

Final Words

I seem to be spoiled for choice with running and fitness apps lately, and here we have yet another fantastic addition to distract me!

I don’t own a Nike+ FuelBand device myself but my sister does so I have borrowed hers for a while to see how I do with this app and I must say, so far I am very impressed.

The FuelBand device is incredibly accurate and the Calories Burned information is quite telling in terms of how much our energy output can fluctuate from day to day depending on how active we are, if we exercise, and so on.

The app itself works like a charm and I’ll definitely be keeping it on my iPhone for some time so be sure to check it out; even if you don’t have a FuelBand device, you’ll want one after trying this app!
