9 Alternative Ways To Wear A Fitbit Watch!

Pocket Pedometer

First pick of the day is having your Fitbit inside the pocket as pedometer. Now this will limit it’s function to an extent, your health tracker won’t be able to capture real time data for Heart Rate or Cardiovascular Health. But if your only concern is to track distance and steps or just how much floors you’ve climbed then you are good to go. Because a Fitbit can easily keep track of those stats and still be the brilliant yet elegant health tracker inside your pocket.

This particular way of wearing Fitbit is also good option for those who have bought refurbished Fitbit and don’t want the tracker to stay visible on their hand. You can get best of both worlds in this way. Although, if you don’t agree with us we’d still suggest to get a pedometer anyway. They are much more accurate than a normal Fitbit tracker.

Ankle Bracelet

Second option that you can opt for is to put your Fitbit smartwatches on your ankle using a comfortable band. Before we proceed it is important to understand that your band should be very comfy for your skin. We’ve seen many cases where people buy cheap bands and later end up with allergy. Even in Apple Watches this issue is prevalent so please be mindful of your decision.

Another thing to note here is that Fitbit on ankle can provide complete suit of features. Because unlike the option we saw above here your health tracker will be in complete contact with your skin. Ensuring that contact can result in collection of data which can later be graphed out.

Sports Bra Buddy

Okay this is one is for ladies out there. You can put your Fitbit inside the pocket of space in your Bra. The one good advantage of doing so is that I’ve seen many women in sports complaining how during the workouts a lose Fitbit tracker can lead them to lose concentration.

So by having Fitbit inside the Bra securely tucked inside where it won’t be your immediate concern you can focus on your practices. Not to mention Fitbit trackers from Inspire and Charge series are very small and lightweight. You won’t even feel them in there. They are perfect for it.

Do Check: Bellabeat is also fantastic option for women in need of a health tracker. Perhaps even more so then Fitbit.

Shoelace Attachment

Okay this is more of a creative solution than genius but hear me out. You can use shoelaces and tie your Fitbit to just any part of your body. You can even have your Fitbit around your shoe and it will perfectly measure your steps, distance, and location.

Another brilliant thing that you can do here is use that shoelace and have your Fitbit on you as a bracelet or necklace. I know I know people might give you weird looks, but hey, we are here exploring alternative ways and this one for sure qualifies as one.

Hair Tie Hack

Another one of those creative alternative way to wear your Fitbit is by having it on your hairs. You can use any hair tie and have it to create a knot to tie Fitbit to your hairs. This is particularly perfect for those with long hairs. Which in this era and time is true for both women and men.

Although, it is also true that in this stance you might not be able to get full access to Fitbit features. However, just in case you have the Fitbit from old generation (the ones who had little to offer) then you might just be on a treat. Those old Fitbit models were ideal clippers and they could be wonderful with just anything you put them on.

Watchband Swap

Okay I’ll bite this one is not particularly an alternative way to wear a Fitbit tracker. But it is more off a partial way of having Fitbit on yourself. Think about it the bands that you get when you buy a Fitbit tracker or even their smartwatch are not certainly the elegant ones. They are in a word: boring.

So what if we go around that and get a watch band which is much more than a band. Imagine the thing you love the most (it could be anything sports teams, cartoon, or even character from fiction). Now imagine that particular thing on the band of your Fitbit tracker. Wouldn’t that be something?

Not to mention if you have small wrists you would have to get a band specifically for your wrists size. So why not customize it.

Necklace Pendant

If you feel your Fitbit tracker is precious little thing that needs to be protected at all costs. Then having it as necklace hanging from your neck while being an inch away from your heart is ideal way to go here. Think about it in this way your Fitbit will be able accurately tell your steps and be less prone to movement while you will be sleeping meaning the sleep tracking will get better.

Yes, now you could be wondering how can I hand Fitbit from my necklace, it only comes with bands. Well, to put your mind at ease here is what you will have to do to make the following a reality: Get an artificial piece of chain. You can then use it to have your Fitbit on as necklace.

Hat Clip

Okay so we are now getting closer to end so let’s step up a notch. Another brilliant yet creative way to have your Fitbit on you is by having it tapped to your Hat. Now hats are not uncommon almost everyone would’ve bought one for themselves at some point. So, all you need to make this idea work is get a double side tape and use it secure your Fitbit at the top of your head. You can also stick it up on sides. It’s totally on you.

Before you ask, no you won’t be able to get RHR or some other raw vitals. Fitbit needs contact with your skin, but you will still be able to use your Fitbit for workouts and stuff. That part of your health tracker won’t get affected.

Waistband Attachment

So the most creative one is for the last. You can attach your Fitbit to a belt or something like it and have it around your waistband. Now once again this will result in limited Fitbit results. So keep in that mind. But if that is something that doesn’t bother you then you should try this one.

If I remember correctly we’ve also suggested this method for Apple Watches so it works out for both. This placement can also be comfortable and unobtrusive, making it ideal for all-day wear.
