True, but hachana is a problem only if specific actions are taken to do
that preparation. For example, washing one's hands over a sink full of
dirty dishes is okay, even if one likes the idea that the dishes will get
wet, provided that he'd be washing his hands there anyway, even if the sink
was empty. So too for the Fitbit, which is already attached to whatever,
and one is not doing any specific action for the Fitbit.
