Using Fitbit Monitoring

LifeCourseOnline is integrating with Fitbit to provide users with valuable metrics and insights. These metrics are collected by your Fitbit device and displayed on LifeCourseOnline. We are introducing this feature to give caregivers, individuals, and their families more information at their disposal for making informed decisions about day-to-day and long-term planning. The new Fitbit integration module can be accessed by clicking the “Metrics” tab under the Activities section of the navigation bar.

Metrics Displayed:

1. Daily Steps
