Can anyone recommend a fitness tracker (self.Blind)
submitted by LilacRose32
I’m UK based and use an iPhone.
I’m looking into buying a fitbit or the like and was hoping someone can let me know which are accessible
Thanks

I've tried to use a Xiaomi smart band and it was an awful experience. It was inaccessible AF. Now I use an Apple Watch.
If you can afford it, an Apple Watch is the only thing I would recommend since you already have an iPhone.

depends what you mean by accessible, really. I have had a Fitbit Flex for a while and it has no screen. My wife has an enspire 2 and, whilst it does have a screen, the same features on my old Flex work for her without sight. Silent alarms, viewing steps and other data in the app or via other connections (i.e.Apple Health, Alexa etc).
if you are deep into the Apple ecosystem, people seem to love the Apple watch but I'm afraid I've no experience with it.

You're best bet is going to be the AppleWatch.
