Description
Overview
The Withings Steel ist the first truly wearable activity trackers. It can track your
activity and your sleep, while still managing to look like a beautiful watch. It is also
water-resistant up to 5ATM and allow you to track your swimming sessions.
You can easily check your activity by taking a look at the activity hand which
goes from 0% up to 100% when you reach your daily step goal. By default, the
daily step goal is 10,000 steps. You can, however, change that goal anytime you
want through the Withings Health Mate app. Whenever you go above your daily
step goal, the activity hand goes back to the 0% mark and starts moving toward
the 100% mark all over again.
Contrary to most activity trackers, the Withings Steel does not require that you
charge it thanks to its replaceable cell battery. It has an estimated battery life of
up to 8 months, meaning that you won’t have to worry about charging it every
other day.
The Withings Steel also allows you through the Withings Health Mate app to
set an alarm that vibrates to wake you up smoothly, without waking up your
sleeping partner. You can easily check your alarm time by double-tapping your
Withings Steel: the hands move on their own to the time that was set for your
alarm and then go back to the current time. Note that you need to stabilize your
Withings Steel for 5 seconds before double-tapping the glass.
Because your Withings Steel is set up using your iOS or Android device, you
never have to worry about setting the time, not even when you change time
zones or for daylight savings. All you have to do is open the Withings Health Mate
app so that it can automatically retrieve the correct time when it syncs with your
phone.
Last but not least, the data coming from your Withings Steel is fully integrated
in the Withings Health Mate app, allowing you to follow your progress and your
history from a single location.
Your Withings Steel also oers motivation in several forms. You can compete with
your friends through the leaderboard available in the Withings Health Mate app.
You can also compete with yourself thanks to virtual badges that you get when
you achieve certain distances or a certain number of steps.

Tracking my activity
Overview
Your Withings Steel allows you to track your activity: number of steps, run
tracking and swim tracking. Whether you are walking, running or swimming, you
don’t have to do anything to start tracking it. All you have to do is wear your
Withings Steel, it will do the rest.

(2)Number of steps

(3)Percentage of the
daily step goal achieved
(4) Estimated distance
walked during the day
(5)Estimated calories
burned during the day
The integrated accelerometer allows your Withings Steel to automatically count
your number of steps and to recognize when you are running. Your running
activity, your distance and your calories are calculated thanks to an algorithm
based on your number of steps and your personal data (age, height and weight).
Checking my progress
In order to check your progress in terms of number of steps, all you have to do
is have a look at the activity hand. Depending on its position, you can tell what
percentage of your daily step goal you have achieved. Once you reach the 100%
mark, your watch vibrates and the cycle starts all over again, from 0% to 100%.
