SYDNEY: HTC has introduced a new fitness monitoring app named Fun Fit on Google Play. The introductory version 1.0.0 of the Fun Fit app can count steps, distance, calories burned and more “no matter where you put your mobile phone, such as your pocket, arm belt, or bag.”
The HTC’s health and fitness app Fun Fit was launched on Friday and is compatible with devices running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and higher.
HTC says that the Fun Fit app can connect users to their Facebook friends, where they can choose an avatar to compete among themselves. The app can keep records of users’ daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly data in the form of charts. With personalised settings, user can also set daily goals.
“All you need to do is to log in to Strolling, and it will track your daily activities until you log out from this application,” says Fun Fit app listing page on Google Play.
The Fun Fit app by HTC Research at present is an app that’s independent of the HTC Grip smart band, and it is possible that HTC might make it the official app for the fitness band.
