Fitbit app question

fuminator18

I recently got a Fitbit Versa and am wondering whether I should sync fitbit app with MFP. Does connecting 2 apps work fine? Do you rather use one app for food and the other for exercise, have Fitbit but use MFP only or recommend using Fitbit app only? Any opinions on pros and cons will be greatly appreciated.

I have had my Fitbit connected to MFP since about 2015. It works fine for me, but be aware that MFP will have intermittent issues with connecting (these are usually address on the "Help" page when they happen, they typically last anywhere from a few hours to a couple of days).

I don't pay any attention to food or calorie goals on the Fitbit app, I log my food on MFP and let the calorie adjustments come over from Fitbit.

If you try to use both, it can get confusing as they will sometimes result in different goals. So whichever you choose, I recommend going with one for your calorie goal and sticking with that.

Thank you! I feel like the food data is much better here at MFP.
