A lot of people are obsessed with fitness and health. Tracking your blood pressure, oxygen level (SPO2), steps (pedometer), and pulse rate just became even easier with this bracelet style (fitbit style) smart watch fitness tracker! Homestec created a very simple, easy to use, all in one wearfit health tracker smart watch that has some pretty serious features for such a small device. I will admit that the manual that it comes with is pretty lacking in any real information. Luckily, this device is pretty straight forward.
I found an updated User’s Manual and posted it here.
The watch is very comfortable and easy to wear — light weight and stylish. The only complaint I have is that the screen isn’t bright in full sunlight which makes it a little difficult to read when you’re outside in the bright sun. It wasn’t a big deal for me though. First it measures blood pressure and pulse very accurately. It was within a couple points of another measurement device so it appears to be pretty accurate. SpO2 measured me at 97-99% which seems like it’s also accurate. I wore this fitness tracker (like a fitbit) as well as my Apple Watch for the day and the steps were very simliar, proving its accuracy. It has a sleep monitor which showed me how little sleep I actually am getting! The tracker displays (via the app for iPhone or Android) the amount of overall sleep, number of times I woke up, and how long I was in deep sleep. Again, I was surprised that I was not getting very much quality sleep at all. Not surprising though… Lastly the watch has a stopwatch (great to be used as a timer) and it even has a “messages” SMS screen. I paired my smart watch with my iPhone but it didn’t display any messages. I guess I forgot to mention that it’s a touch screen display! Simple one-button on the face controls everything.
The iPhone app was very simple to download, the QR code in the manual brought me right to the Apple App Store where I could download the Wearfit app. The wearfit app shows you: Steps, Sleep, Heart Rate, Blood Pressure, Blood Oxygen Level, and Fatigue. I’m not sure what the number actually means, but it showed mild fatigue at midnight – again, the data makes sense. The app communicates with the wearfit tracker via bluetooth and downloads the data into the app. You can see by the day, week, or month the data so you could see trends and have long-term visibility of your health.
Here’s the Wearfit App links for Android and iPhone:
Google Play Store (Android) and Apple App Store (iPhone)
In summary: The Homestec blood pressure Wearfit watch is a fantastic little device with a couple little negatives, but doesn’t make it less than an amazing helpful tool for keeping your health in check. And for the price it’s…. it can’t be beat!!! I love knowing more about my overall health condition and it was a great pricepoint too!

One of the easiest review to get information from. I like that you’ve taken the trouble to include a manual. Can you confirm that it can/cannot be made to record blood pressure readings while I sleep/autonomously (every 1/2 hour), without my triggering a reading? If it did my next question would be, “how can you get the data out of the app – into a database for example?” Tkx
Bob, thanks for the compliment and you’re welcome for the manual. I try and make my reviews thorough and include anything the manufacturer may not have!
It does take BP, O2, Fatigue (which I’m not sure how it comes up with the exact number), and Pulse values on an hourly basis – right on the hour. It also syncs both the Wearfit app and the native iOS iPhone Health App. I just did a quick google search and yes, you can EXPORT out of the Health App – just can’t import (which is fine, that’s not what you want to do anyhow!)

Those links should work fine for you!
Bought this for a friend, it is military time, no way to change the clock to 12hr?
Hello. I just received my wearfit today and was able to set it up, despite a the lack of a manual that actually made sense. THAT was my biggest complaint by far. I see one of those scan things in the manual and I think I’m supposed to do something with it, but I don’t know what. Is it important? But what I have been unable to figure out is why does it randomly vibrate when I’m not even touching it. Do you know?
I found the random vibrating was actually a text message coming in, and if you look at it quickly, it will show the message briefly on the screen
David – i don’t get text messages from my iPhone… I assume this is an Android-Only feature??? Can you confirm that’s what you have?
I’m sorry. One more thing. The charging is unclear to me. I understand the clip thing goes over the band with the pins connecting to the metal spots on the band. The fit is really weird though. Very loose. Am I supposed to push the pins in? I have not tried that as I don’t want to break it. Is it possible for you to send me a picture of what it looks like when properly connected to charge? Thanks again.
Take a look at the following pictures. It doesn’t insert and there’s no force you should be putting on the watch or pins themselves. It’s very loose. Doesn’t need to “connect”. You’ll see the indication of the battery being charged on the display when it’s done correctly. But do NOT apply any force whatsoever!!!
I also pulled the pins out on the first picture so you could see how loose I put the pins in – all you do is move it in place and it starts charging!!!
