[Electronics-talk] Fitbit

[Mike Sedmak]

Summary, the setup process required sighted assistance, and the
display on the fitbit itself is purely visual.  The IOS app is
accessible and I use it daily.

So if you have sighted assistance available to help with the setup
process (there's a number displayed on the front of the device  that
needs to be entered to tie it to your fitbit account) and you have an
IOS device to access the data, then fitbit can be very useful to a
blind user.
