You Need This Fitness App ASAP
If you have an iPhone, I’m guessing by now you’ve updated to the new iOS 7 and are feeling pretty baller with all your new flashy icons and cool features.
As with all technology, everything seems to get better with time. I learned this first hand when a fellow tourist in Rome filled me in on the hottest new activity tracker out there, Moves.
A nice couple from San Francisco (go figure, techie-geniuses) told us about it while we were touring the Vatican on our recent trip to Italy.
“We walked 10 miles yesterday!” they bragged.
Never to be outdone, we immediately downloaded the app with the intention of putting their 10 miles to shame.
Over the course of the trip, the BF and I made bets everyday about how far we’d walked, and consoled ourselves over our sore feet by saying, “Just think of how great this will be for our Moves!”
By the end of our 14 days, we had tracked 100 miles. Seriously! Makes all that gelato and pizza not seem so bad, right?
You’re probably thinking, “Big deal. There are a million walking trackers out there, what’s so great about this one?”
Unlike other calorie and activity trackers like Nike’s Fuel Band or Jawbone’s UP, you don’t need to wear any device to track your moves. With Moves, it’s all tracked straight from your phone.
The best thing about it, you don’t have to do anything after you download it. You put in your info and it just starts working.
You don’t have to start the tracking process everyday or be connected to the internet, you simply have to have your phone turned on, and with you. That’s it.
It’s so popular that it’s been downloaded 2.5 million times since it launched.
Throughout the day you can check how many steps you’ve walked, how many miles that adds up to, and how many calories you’ve burned.
It also has a map that actually shows you exactly where you went and keeps track of time you spent driving or taking public transportation.
Moves can track running and cycling too, although I’ve yet to use it for that.
While we had slightly different reports at the end of each day, the BF and I had generally the same amount of moves. Obviously, since it’s not connected to your body, it’s not going to be 100% accurate. Still, it’s a good indicator of your activity level for the day and a great motivator to get off your butt and move.
Each time I didn’t feel like climbing to the top of another Duomo (there’s so many!), the BF would remind me how many Moves I’d get for it.
“Sweet,” I’d think. “I guess I can crank out a few more steps.”
The convenience of the app is it’s main appeal for me. I always have my cell phone on me (much to the BF’s chagrin).
This isn’t ideal for someone who wants precise tracking, but for someone who wants just a little more motivation to stay active — without a clunky device attached to their arm — it’s a great option.
The app launched in January for iPhone and just launched on Android as well.
I suggest you get Moves ASAP and get moving!
P.S. We beat that couple’s 10 miles. We got 11.4. Suck it.
***I know it sort of sounds like it, but this is NOT a sponsored post. The app is free. Now if it was a $5 app….

No worries! Just happy to get a compliment from a fashionable lady like yourself :) Thanks girl!
Hellian says:
Your talk is quite close to me due to I’ve also faced this problem before. Likewise, I’m also tend to think that it’s necessary to use all the development. By the way, once I thought about cost of developing a banking app? It seems to me that this is very relevant at the moment, so if you want, implement this idea.

Hmm, are there any other tips on how to start developing software more effectively? I will be grateful in advance for good advice!
BrusNeam says:
Software development is a rather interesting field that I have always been interested in studying. I looked through several articles and one day came across offshore software development. In this article, I was able to find information about current trends in this topic and learn a lot for myself, as well as how to use offshore software development in order to successfully run a business. You can also try reading this article.

I’ve always been concerned about data protection issues. I think this is a very important point that must be observed in order to avoid any unpleasant surprises.
Sallivan says:
When I was looking for a universal solution to this problem, I searched the forums and articles. I found the web browser extension-Paranoid https://webparanoid.com/en which was very interesting and did not allow me to go to a malicious site and also warned me about online stores that I could trust.

I am very glad that you have started developing your web product. This is really a very serious occupation. Not everyone brings everything to perfection, and I think people who know how to do it really succeed in their business. By the way, I want to mention the fact that you can visit a source here to know information about responsive website design testing and the main tools of it. I have studied this topic and I can say that it will be really useful for you and for other people who will join the development.

Maybe. But I would really prefer to have an artificial intelligence component. Because I own a fitness center. And it brings me no money. I am very upset.

The thing is that not just automated cars, but driveless cars are becoming more and more real these days. This is powered and managed by artificial intelligence. To ensure its proper and prosperous functioning, many machine learning models must be used to analyze behavioral factors and other important stuff.
