Apps you need
Fitbit produces activity trackers, smart watches, wearable devices that measure number of steps walked, heart rate, quality of sleep, steps climbed, and other fitness & health metrics. The Fitbit mobile app is for people who use Fitbit devices to keep track of their activity goals, food plans, and other fitness related things.
IFTTT helps to create applications connections with a simple statement: if this then that. For example: "Tweet your Instagrams as native photos on Twitter". You define a task by a trigger and an action.
