It’s not good then

Supporters in the comments seem to use it for counting steps and seems adequate for that, anything it’s useless.

If your cycling, get a mid range Garmin cycle computer with wheel & peddle sensors and a hear rate strap.

The big screen mounted to the bike will be easy to read, customise and provide instant feedback using the built in dynamics apps like seeing if your ahead or behind previous attempts or how much longer a hill is etc.

Using the right tool for the job is essential, buying a toy for something other than walking was a waste of money.
