I have an HTC Go-Phone, which is Android system and I have nothing but problems and frustration trying to sync MFP & Fitbit on my phone.
1. It doesn't recognize my email address, as it is registered with MFP.
2. It keeps telling me my password is wrong, or my user name is wrong.

No matter WHAT I do I just can't get the 2 to sync.
I want my food I log in MFP to show in Fitbit ( and vice-versa), my exercise, and progress available in BOTH programs. Please...Help me save my sanity and help me figure this out. Thanx (-:

    It is probably in one of the two above links, but individual foods don't transfer over very well from MFP to FB, same with exercise, in fact it can lead to multiple entries. I generally just ignore the fitbit site as it transfers all my calories burned into MFP and then I view everything from MFP.

    MFP sends aggregate meal data + water to Fitbit. Exercise syncs both ways, so log either in Fitbit or MFP—never both. Exercise logged in MFP overwrites your Fitbit burn during that time.

    Ignore your Fitbit goal & follow MFPs, eating back your adjustments. If (and only if) you enable negative calorie adjustments in your diary settings, you'll be eating TDEE minus deficit.
