UP® – Smart Coach for Health App Reviews

Great interface, helpful tips: keeps me motivated. Easy to use and integrates ok with myfitnesspal, which I use for better nutrition tracking.Tracker doesnt develop an odor, which is a problem Ive had with another tracker.

My brother gave me his used up24 year ago in January. I upgraded to an up2 shortly thereafter, and six weeks ago I upgraded to my up3. I had been trying to lose weight on and off for almost a year with no results. Once I got into the habit of logging meals, etc. into Smart Coach- I found that the accountability factor works very well for me. I have since lost over 28 permanent, non-fluctuating pounds. I find myself feeling guilty if – at the end of the day – I have not met my required step goals, have not entered my food, and havent logged at least 8 glasses of water. I love being able to look back throughout the weekly summary and see how exercise affects sleep, food affects mood, and everything effects heart rate. I absolutely adore the inspirational quotes every day. While I am a very competitive person, my weight (and weight loss) is a private matter to me and with my Jawbone and Smart Coach- I am finally closing in on a goal that has eluded me for years. I HIGHLY recommend any jawbone for anyone interested in monitoring their overall health- including trying to maintain, lose, or gain weight.

Like every Jawbone product. Every detail is precise. Comfortable to wear and clean looking compared to competitors.

There maybe times when the software updates are not quite correct, but the accuracy of the sleep times and the walking distances, far exceeds products from Withings and MS Band 2. I have tried all three for several months. The Jawbone 3 on one wrist and either the Band 2 or the Withings on the other wrist. The Band 2 consistently says I woke up 8 or 9 times during the night, when in reality I woke up 1 time. It does not record sleep patterns correctly either. As for the Withings watch, says I when to sleep at 2 am when the actual time was 10:30 pm. All three record distance fine, but for sleep patterns and accuracy, nothing surpasses the Jawbone 3!!!!!!!

This new update is garbage. Now the app freezes once a day and I have to delete and reinstall everyday. How does an update like this get out in the first place? How isnt there a immediate correction to fix the problem? Updating this app is like Russian roulette.

Love this UP. Keeps me focused on getting my steps in each day. It is also nice to know how I sleep!

The app is reliable and I never have a problem with it pairing to my band. No complaints!

Ive been using this for a few weeks and have recommended it to others because of the step- and sleep-tracking accuracy, the frequent (but not-too-frequent) motivational prompts, and the great tips the app provides. however I do not have the wearable jawbone tracker, so Im not getting the full experience. I wish there was some kind of discount offered for using the app since its more likely Ill be into using the wearable to its full extent, than say, someone who was gifted one and never used the app before on their own...

It would be nice if Private lock on food-logging screen was more noticeable when locked (change color?) - I accidentally it when reaching for the Save check mark while one-handed typing and dont always realize it till later. Bar scanner no longer works. Image is blurry and it wont focus. There have also been issues forever with manually changing the number of servings/ounces of drinks - doesnt always update on first selection and viewing area doesnt open and close correctly (at least not on 6s).

So far it is great I absolutely love it...

Motivates me to sleep/eat better and get more exercise

Love getting little encouragement and being able to track my goals. Sometimes it takes a little too long to update but mostly really happy with the helpful tips and user friendly interface

I have broken my up band twice. Each time, theyve immediately mailed out a replacement. Once it even included a free upgrade. I like how it syncs with others so we can compare our activity.

I LOVE my UP! But since the update this week the app has been flaky. Now, its just freezing on the opening page! Id just delete the app and start over, but I dont want to lose all my data for the last couple months.
