Introduction
ProFit Band is a free companion app for ProFit smart fitness bands, developed by Tom Tong — an independent developer based in China. With over 1 million downloads on Google Play, ProFit Band serves as the bridge between your ProFit wearable hardware and your smartphone, delivering step counting, sleep monitoring, exercise logging, blood pressure tracking, and device management in a straightforward interface.
Designed primarily for the ProFit FP1099 series and other compatible Bluetooth fitness bands, the app targets budget-conscious users looking for a simple, no-cost health tracking solution without subscription fees or in-app purchases.
How ProFit Band Works
ProFit Band connects to your fitness band via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). After pairing, the app syncs health data — steps, sleep records, exercise sessions, heart rate readings, and blood pressure measurements — from the band to your phone. The data is displayed on a clean home dashboard where you can view daily activity summaries and historical trends.
The app also serves as a notification relay: incoming calls, SMS messages, and app alerts (WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.) are forwarded from your phone to the band's display, so you can stay informed without pulling out your phone.
Health & Fitness Features
Step Counting and Daily Activity
ProFit Band records your daily step count, distance traveled, and calories burned with configurable daily goals. The home screen displays your progress toward the daily target, and historical data lets you track activity trends over time.
Sleep Monitoring
The app provides sleep duration and quality analysis, recording when you fall asleep, wake up, and how restful your sleep was. Sleep data helps you understand your rest patterns and make adjustments to improve sleep quality.
Data CollectedMay share personal info and messages with third parties. May collect location, health/fitness data, and app activity. Data encrypted in transit. Deletion available on request.
ProFit Band is a free companion app developed by Tom Tong for ProFit smart fitness bands. After pairing your ProFit band via Bluetooth, the app serves as your health dashboard and device manager — displaying step counts, sleep data, exercise records, heart rate readings, and blood pressure measurements. It also forwards call alerts, SMS, and app notifications from your phone to your band. The app is free on both Android (Google Play, 1M+ downloads) and iOS (App Store), with no in-app purchases or subscription fees.
How do I connect ProFit Band to my phone?
To connect ProFit Band to your phone: (1) Download ProFit Band from Google Play (package: com.profit.band) or the Apple App Store (ID: 1487264286); (2) Open the app and enable Bluetooth on your phone; (3) Power on your ProFit fitness band and make sure it's in pairing mode; (4) In the app, tap the device section and select 'Add Device' or 'Scan'; (5) Select your band from the discovered device list; (6) Confirm the pairing on your phone. Once connected, grant notification access when prompted so calls and messages can be forwarded to your band.
Why is my ProFit Band app not connecting or not working?
Common ProFit Band connection issues and fixes: (1) Bluetooth off — ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone; force-close the app and reopen it. (2) Band out of range — keep phone and band within 1–2 meters during initial pairing. (3) Cache issue — go to phone Settings > Apps > ProFit Band > Storage, clear cache and data, then relaunch. (4) Already paired elsewhere — remove the band from your phone's Bluetooth settings list, then pair again through the app. (5) Low battery — charge your fitness band to at least 20% before pairing. (6) Update the app — make sure you have the latest ProFit Band version. (7) Restart both devices — power off both your phone and band, then restart and try again.
Which devices are compatible with the ProFit Band app?
ProFit Band is designed for ProFit-branded smart fitness bands, primarily the FP1099 model and other generic Bluetooth fitness bands that use the ProFit Band communication protocol. If your fitness band's packaging or user manual instructs you to download 'ProFit Band' from the app store, this is the correct application. The app requires iOS 9.0 or later on Apple devices, and Android support varies by device with Bluetooth Low Energy capability required.
Is the ProFit Band app safe and legitimate?
ProFit Band is available on both the official Apple App Store and Google Play Store, which means it has passed both platforms' review processes. The app has been available since 2019 and has over 1 million installs on Google Play. The developer (Tom Tong) provides a privacy policy and support email. The app does request permissions for SMS, call log, and location — these are standard for fitness band apps that forward notifications and provide weather data. Data is encrypted in transit and deletion is available on request. As with any app, review the permissions before installing.
How accurate is the health data from ProFit Band?
ProFit Band health data (heart rate, blood pressure, sleep tracking, steps) uses optical sensors in your fitness band to provide consumer-grade wellness readings. Step counting is generally reliable for tracking daily activity trends. Blood pressure and heart rate readings provide approximate values useful for spotting general trends but are not medical-grade. These measurements should not be used for medical diagnosis or treatment. Factors like wrist position, skin tone, movement, and band tightness can affect sensor accuracy. For medical concerns, always consult a healthcare professional and use certified medical devices.
Is the ProFit Band app free to use?
Yes, ProFit Band is completely free to download and use on both Android and iOS. There are no subscription fees, no premium tiers, and no in-app purchases. All features — step counting, sleep tracking, exercise monitoring, blood pressure measurement, notifications, alarm clock, weather display, and device management — are included at no cost. The app is supported through the sale of ProFit fitness band hardware rather than app monetization.
How do I check blood pressure with ProFit Band?
To check blood pressure with ProFit Band: (1) Make sure your ProFit fitness band is connected to the app via Bluetooth; (2) Wear the band snugly on your wrist — not too tight, not too loose; (3) Open the ProFit Band app and navigate to the blood pressure section; (4) Initiate a blood pressure reading from the app or directly from the band; (5) Stay still during the measurement for the most consistent reading. Important: ProFit Band blood pressure readings are for general wellness reference only and are not a substitute for professional medical blood pressure monitors. Always consult a healthcare provider for medical decisions.
How do I change the wallpaper on my ProFit band?
To change the wallpaper or watch face on your ProFit band: (1) Open the ProFit Band app and ensure your band is connected; (2) Go to the device management or settings section; (3) Look for the 'Wallpaper' or 'Watch Face' option; (4) Browse the available wallpaper designs; (5) Select a design you like and tap 'Apply' or 'Set'; (6) Wait for the transfer to complete via Bluetooth. The wallpaper customization feature was added in version 1.2.7 and allows you to personalize your band's display appearance.
What permissions does ProFit Band need and why?
ProFit Band requests several permissions on Android: (1) SMS access — required to forward incoming text message notifications to your fitness band's display; (2) Call log access — needed to show incoming call alerts and caller information on the band; (3) Location access — used for Bluetooth device scanning (required by Android for BLE discovery) and to provide weather data to the band. These permissions are standard for fitness band companion apps that relay phone notifications. On iOS, the app requests Bluetooth permission for device connectivity. You can review and manage these permissions in your phone's settings at any time.

App Store
ProFit Band works fine for basic step tracking with my cheap fitness band. Setup was easy — just pair via Bluetooth and it starts counting. The sleep monitoring is actually pretty useful for seeing how long I sleep each night. For a free app with no ads, I can't complain.

Pricing InfoFree to download and use on both Android and iOS. No subscription fees. No in-app purchases. All features — step counting, sleep tracking, exercise monitoring, and device management — are included at no cost.
Got this app for the blood pressure feature on my ProFit band. It does measure BP but I'm not sure how accurate it is compared to a real monitor. Step counting seems close to my iPhone's built-in counter. The app is simple and does what it says — nothing fancy but it works.
App Store
Surprisingly decent companion app for a budget fitness band. Syncs reliably via Bluetooth, shows my daily steps and calories, and the sedentary reminder actually helps me get up from my desk. The wallpaper customization is a nice touch. Would love more watch face options though.
App Store
I mainly use ProFit Band for sleep tracking and it does a good job recording when I fall asleep and wake up. The data is clear and easy to read. The alarm vibration feature is great for waking up without disturbing my partner. Best free fitness band app I've tried.
App Store
App is basic but functional. Step counter works, notifications come through to the band, and the weather display is handy. My main gripe is the UI looks a bit dated and hasn't been updated in a while. But for a completely free app with no in-app purchases, it does the job.
Google Play
Good app for basic fitness tracking. I use it with my ProFit band every day for step counting and it's accurate enough. The blood pressure feature is interesting — don't know if it's medically accurate but it's a nice addition. Bluetooth connection is stable most of the time. Recommended for budget band users.
Google Play
The app does what it needs to do. Sleep tracking and step counting work well. Setup was straightforward — scanned for my band and connected in under a minute. The UI could use a refresh but functionality is solid. Wish they would update it more frequently though.
Google Play
Been using ProFit Band for over a year now with my FP1099 band. Steps, sleep, and heart rate all track consistently. The notification forwarding for calls and WhatsApp works great. Multi-language support is appreciated — I switch between Chinese and English. Good budget option.
Google Play
App is simple and lightweight which I like. No bloat, no premium upsells. Step tracking and calorie counting help me stay active. The find band feature saved me once when I dropped it between couch cushions. Would be nice to have exercise history charts though.
Google Play
Perfect companion app for my budget fitness band! Everything works as expected — steps, sleep, heart rate, and even blood pressure readings. The alarm and sedentary reminders are very useful. It's completely free with no hidden costs. For what it offers, I'm very satisfied.

ProFit Band logs workout sessions with activity data including duration, distance, and calories burned. You can start exercise tracking from the app or directly from the band, and session records sync automatically.

The band's sensors capture blood pressure readings that are displayed and stored in the app. As with all consumer wearables, these readings are for general wellness reference only and should not replace professional medical measurements.

The app pushes real-time weather and temperature information to your connected band, so you can check conditions at a glance from your wrist.

Compatible Devices
ProFit Band is designed to work with ProFit-branded smart fitness bands, primarily the FP1099 model and other generic Bluetooth fitness bands that use the ProFit Band protocol. If your band's packaging or manual instructs you to download "ProFit Band," this is the correct application.

Location access — for weather data and Bluetooth device scanning
These permissions are standard for fitness band companion apps that relay phone notifications to wearable devices.
