I've connected my Fitbit and MFP accounts and my steps are showing up on MFP but my logged foods from MFP to Fitbit aren't showing up. Any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong.

    I'm having the exact opposite issue. My steps aren't showing up on MFP, but everything is showing up on Fitbit. I've unlinked and relinked three times. :neutral:

    Confirm time zones match.

    Be aware that food items do NOT show up on Fitbit from MFP.

    Only meal totals show up.

    If not showing up, you have a syncing issue in the direction that rarely has issues. Issue some have had is they make changes to food items in a meal on MFP, and instead of the total on Fitbit updating, a new items with new total is added - meaning 2 meals now with all the calories.

    When I log food on the app, sometimes it just doesn't synch for some reason (like it won't even show if I open MFP on my computer afterwards). I have to use my computer.

    Excellent point, I forget the fact sometimes the MFP app isn't even getting all it's data back to an account in general.
    If that doesn't happen, it'll never go elsewhere.

    Does the MFP app still have a force sync option?

    I'm afraid to install it again, even though my account is currently hosed up anyway from the last time I did.
