Review: MilestonePod Gets an Upgrade

By Jenny Steadman August 12, 2016

I was provided product for this review. Opinions are completely my own.

In February I shared information about different fitness trackers. One of those trackers was the MilestonePod, of which I became a very big fan.

A simple and affordable tracker for runners, the MilestonePod attaches to your shoe and tracks your distance, pace and running form. It's a simple device that does amazing things. It gives runners and walkers detailed activity data to improve form, speed and health. It tracks cadence, foot strike, stride length, calories, steps and distance, all from your shoe! You don't even need to have your phone with you! Just sync via bluetooth when you return home.


But now the Milestone Pod is even better.

Still for sale at the affordable price of $24.95, it has received these upgrades:

  • Snaps easily onto shoelaces instead of needing to be laced in
  • Extended battery life (6-8 months with replaceable battery)
  • Auto-syncing when MilestonePod is in range of phone and faster syncing
  • Refreshed, more user-friendly app
  • Waterproof
  • Better accuracy

The MilestonePod is truly for anyone. If you already have a tracker that logs your steps, calories and distance, then the MilestonePod can give you added information about your form, which leads to training that is easier on your body. If you do not have a tracker at all, then it is an affordable way to get started!
