The app has a calorie counter and allows you to back up your data online. You can compare progress reports and the app can also calculate the nutrients within your system based upon your diet.

This is nothing more than a pedometer that uses the Smartphone’s internal sensors to figure out when you are taking footsteps. You can wear it on your person or you can throw it in your pocket it does not matter. You can also take into bed with you and it will monitor the quality of your sleep, however given the fact that microwaves emit radiation it is not advisable that you actually put it in bed with you, since microwaves still cause cancer.
