This new feature worked once for me 3 days ago and has not worked properly since. I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting multiple times. I connect with my desktop then try to use my iphone to track and it just doesn't work. Not very user friendly for trouble shooting. HELP! I want to track my steps for myfitnesspal and it just won't work!

My Fitbit stopped synching with MFP as of 10:39 pm last night. It was working totally fine until then. I have now tried disconnecting/reconnecting the apps as well as revoked acccess on Fitbit side and it still won't sync. This happens WAYYYYYY too frequently.0

I'm having the same issue - steps/calories not syncing with MFP. This happened around the same time last year because loads of people got FitBits for Christmas/started with their resolution and it crashed the servers for several days, so I'm wondering if it might be that again...0

I have the surge, and it hasnt synced with MFP at all for steps. Food will sync to the fitbit but nothing, (including steps) will sync to MFP. I contacted MFP about the issue last night.0

Same here, just stopped syncing this AM. I've had this Fitbit One since November and have never had this problem before...0

awesome, so we have to deal with this again for another week. The same thing happened back in early December and a few months before that, and a few months before that. I honestly don't believe it is because of the holidays.0

I'm having the same problem on and off over the last 3 or 4 days, too. Sometimes disconnecting/reconnecting works, sometimes not.0

Last time, I disconnected the app from the web, then logged out of my MFP mobile app, logged back in, and I got an updated/correct Calorie Adjustment. It hasn't synched again since then, but at least that number was correct. Prior to that, after disconnecting, it was giving me a calorie adjustment that was wrong.I'm having the same problem on and off over the last 3 or 4 days, too. Sometimes disconnecting/reconnecting works, sometimes not.

You're in for a treat, this happens every few months. I've had my fitbit for less than year and it has happened at least 6 times that I know of since then.ForwardOsmosis wrote: »Same here, just stopped syncing this AM.

This is happening to me as well. Multiple reconnects/disconnects have not helped

I'm experiencing the same issue. Fitbit will sync to the Fitbit iOS app and FitBit dashboard, but MFP does not show the steps. My Withings scale measures are being imported into MFP with no issues.
I have reconnected FitBit and MFP numerous times in the last three days. Thinking about just using FitBit app for logging food. Suggestions?0 -
Just adding another "this is happening to me" post. As said above, this isn't the first time, the good news is it's usually resolved fairly quickly.0

Adding myself to the list. Although, I'm finding that Fitbit is getting my calories and water intake but it's not sending steps over to MFP.0
-
are any of you getting a calorie adjustment throughout the day, and if so, is it correct?? I'm not getting a correct adjustment, even after unlinking, it gives me one, but it is wrong.0
-
I dont actually SEE the steps on MFP (on my exercise log) but I do get the calorie adjustments. I assume this is normal. It is always how it has worked since I linked them just after Xmas. I also allowed the negative adjustment when I don't actually burn what was supposed to be burned.
I don't usually eat back calories anyway, so I pretty much ignore the changes made, but am I reading the pages wrong???0 -
Glad to see its just not my issues...I have messed with out for an hour to see what the issue was!!!0
-
Mine's syncing again, as of about an hour ago. Hopefully that means they've sorted it out now.
(FWIW, mine was making absolutely no calorie adjustments on MFP, when I know it should've given me about 500 cals from walking; the step counter on MFP also said I'd taken 233 steps, when I'd walked something like four and a half miles...)0 -
I followed the instruction at myfitnesspal.desk.com/customer/portal/questions/9905767-fitbit-is-not-syncing-with-mfp
It started working again.

Has it synched again on its own since you did this?
I did this exact same thing at least 15 times today, it only works initially to force one sync, but it doesn't continue automatically synching.
I just followed these steps for the 9 millionth time today and it forced the sync. I'll bet another 9 million dollars it doesn't automatically sync again in an hour or so like it should. I'll update later.0 -

No and for yesterday, Fitbit shows I ate zero calories which is wrong. Fitbit and MFP, for me, just will not stay synced properly for the past day or two.
