Sleep tracking is more sophisticated than it appears on the Ace 3, with Sleep Stages and Sleep Score showing the quality of your nightly sleep. SmartTrack automatically recognises and records exercises too.

There are also more than 20 Exercise Modes to get real-time stats on during workouts. It has a Heart-Rate Monitor, so can help with motivation for more involved exercise regimes. It tracks basic Steps, Distance, Active Zone Minutes and Calories Burned, and offers on-wrist notifications, including Caller ID, texts, calendar alerts and Reminders to Move. The Ace 3 is basically an Inspire 2 with a bunch of features taken out and as such the Inspire 2 is a little more expensive, however, we think the extra features are worth it. And, of course, it works with Fitbit’s fantastic mobile app. While the Ace 3 is designed specifically for children, we’d happily recommend the Fitbit Inspire 2 to kids too since it’s affordable, smart-looking and easy to use. These family views are just for Ace.įitbit also ensures all the data collected is private and not shared with its servers, keeping info about your kids safely with you and you only.Ī Special Edition Ace 3 (at the same price) is based on the popular Minions movies. Just like adults, kids can win badges and trophies as they hit their activity goals. On the app side, Fitbit has created two Views exclusive to the Ace range: one for parents and another for the child. Bedtime Reminders, alarms, a timer and a stopwatch are all included extras too. There’s no heart rate monitor on the Ace 3, so if (or your child) want such functionality, you should consider the more able Inspire 2 tracker.įitbit recommends the Ace 3 for children over the age of six, with it tracking Steps, Active Minutes and basic Sleep, while also offering up Reminders to Move and basic notifications, like Caller ID. It’s showerproof and the battery should last for up to eight days, meaning your kids can wear it all through the school week to keep an eye on their exercise. It has a simple, tough design and straps specifically for small wrists, with a slim display to show the time and basic readouts.

Fitbit Ace 2, the Ace 3 is specifically designed for kids, making it the obvious choice to top this list.
