step accuracy

[ferrytrip]

Hi I've been using my zip since last fall, recently my steps have been going through the roof 15K -16K a day. My job involves a fair amount of walking and the possibilty of losing my zip when it get very busy. For this reason, I usually keep in my front pocket. Today, I decided to put it on my belt and I seem not to be doing very well in racking up the steps. So is there a difference in how the zip counts depending on where it is?

Nice to see you here @ferrytrip! You may see a slight difference in step count if wearing a clip-based tracker on your torso. Zip is most accurate when worn on or very close to the body. Ideal places to wear your Zip include a shirt pocket, bra, pants pocket, belt, or waistband. Try out a few different locations to see what is most comfortable and secure for you. A clip designed to keep your tracker clipped to your clothing is provided with your Zip package.

The Zip is not designed to be worn in direct contact with the skin. Always use the silicone holder when clipping it to a bra or waistband, with the display facing outward. Do not wear the Zip inside your bra.

I hope this helps, keep me posted! 😉
