MFP app not showing FitBit steps?

It was working yesterday but not today.

It just shows "0 Fitbit steps" even though the Fitbit shows nearly 5,000.

I removed the connection, then re-installed it and it still doesn't work.

Anyone else having this issue?

    did you go to the specific menu item labeled "steps" on the app and enable fitbit?

    Does your Fitbit app show the steps? This is always my problem (well ... As of late), that I haven't opened the app in a while and the app itself only says 0 steps, while my Fitbit on my arm clearly says I have many steps. I open the app, it says "looking" then "syncing". Then the steps update in the Fitbit app, which pushes it over to MFP.

    Sometimes in the settings I change the "steps" to "don't track my steps", wait a couple of minutes and then change it back to Fitbit and it seems to do the trick.
