Once you've chosen the best Fitbit for you, to really get the most out of it you'll want to sync it and view your progress on the Fitbit Dashboard. You can absolutely do that with Fitbit for iPhone, but you can also do it on your Mac.
The handiest part about using your Fitbit with your Mac is that, so long as you have the Fitbit Connect app to sync your device, you can view your progress on any device with an internet connection; the Fitbit Dashboard for Mac is entirely online.
The Fitbit Dashboard display your goals and how close you are to meeting them, as well as useful tips and other fitness-related items, like a nutrition plan. Here's a list of what you can view on your Fitbit Dashboard:
Fitbit's online Dashboard is incredibly simple to navigate and use, since everything is as easy as clicking and, in some instances, typing. The only issue is that some information that you may want to see might not be on your initial Dashboard.
There may also be goals or information that you just don't care about. Get rid of it!
Each widget on the Fitbit Dashboard is called a 'tile.' The online Dashboard gives you the ability to add and delete tiles, depending on what's most important to you. It's easy, once you find the dang 'add tiles' button. Here's how!
I have a Mac desktop, OS High Sierra version 10.13.6. The Apple app store does not seem to have the fitbit app for the desktop, only for the iPad and iPhones. In order to load music onto my Versa it advises to download the desktop app, but it isn't present in the app. How To Play Fitbit Apps On PC,Laptop,Tablet. 1.Download and Install Android Emulator on PC,Laptop,Tablet.Click “Download Emulator” to download. 2.Run Android Emulator on PC, Laptop or Tablet. 3.Open Android Emulator for PC,Laptop,Tablet import the Fitbit Apps file from your PC Into Android Emulator to install it.
Click Done.
Now all the goals and information that you want to see will appear every time you load up your Dashboard. You can hover over and click see more, or double-click each tile for a more in-depth view of that particular goal or aspect of the Fitbit experience.
Some tiles that appear on the Fitbit Dashboard may just not be that relevant to you. Does anyone really care about drinking the requisite 64 ounces of water, per day? Ok, fine, maybe you do, but there's gotta be something else on there that you don't want to see.
Luckily, tiles can be deleted in two shakes of a pig's ear.
Click the settings button that appears on the bottom left of the tile. It's the gear.
Click Remove.
That's all there is to it! If you've added a tile and want it removed, but the settings button isn't appearing when you hover over the tile, just refresh the page and it should work.
You can rearrange your Dashboard at any time, just click and drag the tiles around to suit your preferences.
In some cases, Fitbit is only as accurate as you make it. For example, you have to log your weight and your water intake, because, unless you have the Fitbit Aria scale, it's not weighing you from your wrist and it's not checking your tummy for water.
Logging information in the online Fitbit Dashboard is as easy as clicking and typing. Here's how!
Click See More in the tab that appears beneath the tile.
Click Log it.
Now Fitbit knows how much water you've had for the day. Remember to log your water intake every day, so that Fitbit can keep up with you and give you the most accurate data possible.
If you're tracking your water intake, you're probably tracking how many calories you're scarfing down in a day as well. You have to tell Fitbit because, unless you're feeding your tracker too, it'll have no idea.
Click See More on the tab that appears beneath the tile.
Click an option from the list that appears.
Click Log Food.
Boom, your food is logged. To keep on top of things, you probably want to log your food after every meal. Since you are choosing food items from a preset list, keep in mind that your daily calorie totals may not be completely precise, but they will be pretty darn close.
Unless you have the Fitbit Aria, your Fitbit device has no idea how much you weigh, so you have to log it in your Fitbit Dashboard. Here's how:
Click See More on the tab that appears beneath the tile.
Click Log.
Now Fitbit knows what you weigh. Feel free to embellish if you want, but you have no one to blame but yourself! You could blame Fitbit, but nobody's buying it.
You'll be able to monitor your progress for efficiently if you enter this information into your Fitbit Dashboard and it will help you to paint a more accurate picture of your overall fitness.
