How do you sink an Apple Watch with my fitness pal? It’s recording my steps but not spinning.

    Did you log the work out on your Apple Watch? The only time I’ve never had a work out not automatically sync to MFP from my Apple Watch is when I didn’t log it through the Watch itself.

    Also, do you have permissions turned on in your health app to allow MFP that information?

    Hope that helps!

    Mine doesn't sync automatically even though it is set to. In order to get my apple watch activity to show up on MFP I have to open the health app, then open MFP. Apparently if the Health app isn't running it will not sync alone.

    After you do the settings correctly just open the health app after your workout (your watch will put the workout there), then open up MFP and it will magically appear on your MFP home timeline.

    Annoying but that is how I get it to work.

    I had the same problem.
    I started to use the UnderArmour Record app and it sync quickly. I use it for spinning class and it’s perfect. Feel free to add me
