Evening, all.

So I wear a FitBit to track my steps and keep myself accountable, otherwise I'd sit on my toosh all day... anywho, I got a Magicband for our next trip and was wondering, do the FitBit and RFID technology within the Magicband interfere with each other?

Why not just wear the Magicband on the other wrist, you may ask? Because I'm as weird individual who doesn't like to wear things on my left wrist. :laughing:

Thanks!
 
So I am that person who wears a Fitbit and the Apple Watch on the same wrist everyday..... Super weird I know and I am reminded about it like all the time..... But because I am strange like that I decided to wear my magic band on the right every tho it bothers me... That's my ocd kicking in.... Needless to say who cares what it looks like, I look like a goof everyday with two things that pretty much do the same thing..... :rolleyes1

I wore my vivofit and magicband on my left wrist my past trip. I hate wearing things on my right wrist. The only complaint I have was it was hard to bend my wrist sometimes with both bands on, and sometimes CMs while charging to the room would accidently try to scan my vivofit instead of my magicband. :laughing:

I also saw a lot of other people this year with a magicband and a vivofit or fitbit on the same wrist, so you're not alone.
 

I read somewhere recently that there is a possibility that the MB scanners can fry the electronics in the FitBit, so it was better to wear them on opposite arms. If I see it again, I will come back and post the link.
 
No problem with wearing both. I did it last year and no issues.
 
I wore both last December with no issues. That was not a dumb question at all.
