What fitness trackers can I use with Windows Phone 8?
I now there is a Fitbit app. Any other apps or compatible trackers?

The one thing WP has, is some great fitness apps. Here is a few of the trackers that are listed as 4 & 5 stars:

Fitbit Tracker | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

Workout Scheduler | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

Gym PocketGuide | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

Runtastic | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

Bing Health & Fitness | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

The Bing fitness is fantastic. I have heard great things about Fitbit as well. There are pages of great options.

I have fun just kicking around the pages.

Do you know any bracelets works with Windows Phone? I have L820 so I can't use Nokia Motion to count my steps. Also I don't want to write every single activity I do, so a bracelet would be awesome.

Other then Fitbit I don't think there's a lot of equipment available for WP8 which is a shame since the fitness device area is becoming so populated. Hopefully more companies begin adding Windows Phone to their add developments. I know articles back in February pointed towards Jawbone looking to hire for Windows Phone applications, and Fitbit has their API out there so they already have a lot of apps. Personally while more options is never a bad thing I think Fitbit makes some of the nicest trackers around so having only that option is fine for me.

Can Fitbit Flex sync with Bluetooth or do I need to sync with my computer and check my progress on my Lumia?

Call me thick, but I'm obviously missing something here. I thought I would have a look at the Health and Fitness app preinstalled on the Lumia 930, went to turn on Motion Tracking and was told I needed to install an app.

"Would you like to search for one in the Store"

Yes.

"Sorry, no apps found".

Huh? What's the point of the app then?
