The Fitbit has become one of the most popular tech devices around. My wife even got one for Christmas. Apparently so did the rest of the world. For those of you not familiar with them, the Fitbit is a band you wear around your wrist. It can then detect and track your heart rate, how many steps you take, how many calories you burn, how many hours you sleep and how many quality hours of rest you got. You can then track your stats on your smartphone or computer.

The Fitbit app has been the number one app in the health and fitness section for quite some time. While there are other fitness bands to buy, Fitbit owns a 22% market share. However, in the days after Christmas the Fitbit app jumped to the number one app in ALL of iTunes! That's a lot of Fitbits! The company is thrilled because those stats show a lot of people got the devices for the holidays are have already got them set up and running!
