    I sync to my iPhone app. While I am in wifi range.

    Yes mine does

    Make sure you have the correct time zone on both, set MFP to sedentary, set same goals on both, enable negative calories
  • Mine hasn't been able to sync for months. It will sync when I first connect it; then not again. It's annoying.

    Yep.
    It will only give positive adjustments if it estimates that you are going to burn more than MFP thinks by the end of the day. You will get negative adjustments (providing you have negative adjustments enabled) if Fitbit estimates that you are going to burn less than MFP things by the end of the day.
    Example:
    MFP estimates I will burn 1872 by the end of the day without exercise.
    Fitbit however thinks I will burn 1869 based on 1225 burned as of 3:45pm.
    My Adjustment is -3. This however can change until Fitbit knows my final burn of the day at 11:59pm.

    Have you tried:
    -disconnecting from MFP
    -going to fitbit dashboard and removing MFP's access rights (apparently just disconnecting on MFP doesn't do this)
    -then reconnect them
    I had the same issue for awhile till I discovered that just disconnection on MFP's site didn't remove MFP from my allowed apps list on Fitbit. When I did it from both sites and then reconnected it started working properly again.

    Also for the OP, there's a minimum amount of steps before it shows any calorie deficit for the day.
