Pulseboard

Calories left today, right on your Home Screen.

Pulseboard turns the data your Fitbit already tracks into iPhone widgets: what you’ve eaten, what you’ve burned and what’s left, on your Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy. Plus steps, sleep and heart rate.

Coming soon to the App Store Free to download. Steps and Sleep widgets are free; Pro adds the calorie budget and every widget.

Your day, wherever you glance

Numbers that sit where you already look, so you don’t open an app to find out how the day is going.

One number that keeps pace with your day

Calories left is worked out the way Fitbit’s food plan does it: what you’ve burned so far, plus what you’ll burn by bedtime, minus the deficit you choose, minus what you’ve eaten. As you move, the budget moves with you.

Example day at 12:00
Example day, 12:00kcal
Burned so far1,400
Still to burn by bedtime+ 875
Your deficit− 500
Budget1,775
Eaten, from your Fitbit food log− 1,350
Left425

Pick a daily deficit of 250, 500, 750 or 1,000 kcal, set your own, or choose maintain or gain. Prefer one fixed number? Set a fixed target instead.

Estimates only, not medical advice.

Pulseboard calorie goal screen: Dynamic budget recommended, Lose selected, and daily deficit options of 250, 500, 750 and 1,000 kcal or custom.

Room to spread out on iPad

Pulseboard Today on iPad in two columns: the calories card beside steps, sleep and the stats board.

Your data goes from Google to your iPhone. Nowhere else.

Pulseboard works with your Fitbit data. You sign in with the Google Account your Fitbit uses and give read-only permission, and the app reads your data from the Google Health API to show it in widgets, in the app, and when you ask Siri or Shortcuts about your stats.

There is no Pulseboard server and no account. Your data never reaches us, and we have no analytics or tracking.

What Pulseboard reads, read-only

  • Activity steps, distance, floors, active calories and exercise minutes
  • Health metrics heart rate, resting heart rate, weight and other measurements
  • Sleep when you slept, for how long, and your sleep stages
  • Nutrition calories eaten from food you log in Fitbit, for the Calories widget and Today

What it never does

  • Change or delete anything at Google
  • Send your data to a server, an advertiser or anyone else
  • Keep it after you leave: Disconnect in Settings revokes access and deletes what was saved on your iPhone

Start free. Go Pro for calories.

Pulseboard is free to download. Pro unlocks the calorie budget and Calories widget, every widget, size, Live Activity and theme, longer charts, and widgets that refresh four times as often.

Questions

What do I need to use Pulseboard?

An iPhone or iPad and a Fitbit whose data is in your Google Account. You sign in with that Google Account and Pulseboard reads your data through the Google Health API.

Does Pulseboard log food?

No. Keep logging food in Fitbit as you do now. Pulseboard reads what you log and shows it as Eaten.

How up to date are the widgets?

Widgets refresh on the schedule iOS allows, so a number can lag the Fitbit app by a few minutes. Pro widgets refresh four times as often.

Can Pulseboard change my Fitbit data?

No. Access is read-only. Pulseboard can’t add, edit or delete anything in your Google Account.

Does it show Sleep Score or Readiness?

No, those aren’t available to Pulseboard. What you see also depends on what your Fitbit tracks.

When can I download it?

Pulseboard is in App Store review and is coming soon for iPhone and iPad.
