0

Garmin has released a new fitness tracker that helps to keep a low profile, and won’t turn a lot of heads. The Vivomove is a fitness tracker that looks like a traditional wristwatch, but has some extra goodies to keep you moving and remind you to do so throughout the day.

The Vivomove features two different bars on its face that indicate how much you’ve moved throughout the day, and how many steps you’ve taken. The black move bar on the left of the watch face tracks the steps you’ve taken, while the red bar on the right tracks how much you’ve moved and will remind you to get up and move around more if you’ve been sitting for too long.
