Fitbit ace 2 link with vitality?

[Emilyh1986]

My husband has bought me a fitbit ace 2 for Christmas. I know they are designed for children but I have tiny wrists and it is the only watch I like due to the size etc. I need it for tracking steps and then linking with Vitality. Is there any reason why it wouldn't work with vitality? I wouldn't want to get it out of the box till I know for sure as that will be its main purpose.

Hello @Emilyh1986 My advice is DON'T OPEN THAT BOX!  You are in for a world of aggravation if you try to use the Ace 2 as an adult.  The Ace 2 has programming limitations and it can only go on a Family Account.  I'm not sure that you can set it up as an adult aged user in a Family Account.  You also don't get full access to some tracking features, i.e., weight tracking and the Female Health tracking.

You cannot link a child tracker with any third party apps.  I am not familiar with Vitality and I do not know if those accounts can link.

Here are a some ideas:

• I read, but I cannot confirm, the the Inspire/Inspire HR are the same pebble size.  So if your wrist is  really small (<5.1"), buy an Inspire/Inspire HR and buy an Ace 2 accessory band
• The metal mesh band in the Fitbit Store for the Inspire/Inspire HR lists the lower size limit as 5.1".

mesh strap 🙂

My sister loves that strap with her inspire.
