TravelBit: DriveBit Substitute

About TravelBit: DriveBit Substitute Android App

While doing activities such as driving or commuting, you may have noticed that your Fitbit tracker has accrued excess steps due to bumpy roads or other disturbances.



TravelBit aims to correct this issue by providing you with an interface that allows you to easily log these activities and remove the unwanted steps from your tracker. Using TravelBit is as simple as tapping the "Start" button before you begin your drive and tapping the "Stop" button when you are finished driving. A confirmation window will appear and allow you to verify that the collected data is accurate before syncing it with your Fitbit tracker.

Features:
• Easy to use logging interface - Log your activities with the touch of a button.
• The ability to store a queue of activities if you do not have internet service while out and about.
• Customization of the type of activity you are logging - it is not restricted to just driving.
• Easily edit and correct any information before it is synced with Fitbit to ensure that accurate data is sent
• Automatically detect when you are driving and log the activity for you. **

** This is a feature available in the premium version of TravelBit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I have purchased the premium version and cannot find it in my app list.

A: The premium version of TravelBit works like a key to unlock the features of the original version, it is not a separate app on its own. For this reason, when you purchase the premium version you still continue to use the original version to run it and it will detect that you have purchased the premium version and unlock the features. You can find the original version of TravelBit here: TravelBit on the Google Play Store

Q: There seems to be a delay between when I start driving and when it is detected by the app.
A: There is a small period of time where the app detects that you are driving, but does not notify you immediately that it has detected it until it is sure that you are driving. This is to prevent false-positives caused by rapid motion of your device that isn't actually driving. Keep in mind that the time the app initially detects you as driving is saved before this "grace period" is entered. You will find that when the actual drive is logged, the start time will usually be 3-5 minutes before the notification is actually sent.

Using the detected driving does not interfere with manual entries. You are still able to manually log your drives if you are concerned about the exact start and end times being recorded. Detected driving is intended to be more of a "fall back" method than to be relied upon for incredible accuracy.
