The Fitbit Alta was the most accurate fitness tracker we tested, and its compact size, digital screen and comfortable design make it our Editor’s Pick for all-day wear and activity. The Fitbit app also connects with other health tracking apps you may use, like MapMyRun and MyFitnessPal.

Tester Comment: “Fitbit was my favorite tracker that I tested. It was extremely accurate during my runs, even on a treadmill, which is great when I have to be stuck indoors. It’s nice to have the digital display so I can track my progress throughout the day and during runs. And the app was great and let me customize my goals and what I cared about tracking.”
