Fitbit, MFP and Apple Health App not syncing

I know you cannot link Fitbit to the Apple health app. I DO have MFP synced to Fitbit and Apple health. My food log from MFP syncs all the nutrition info to Apple health just fine. It does NOT sync my activity that MFP pulls from Fitbit though. Does anyone have a solution? Obviously I have checked all settings etc... It does not make sense that Apple health pulls my nutrition from MFP but not my activity.

    There are some apps in the App Store that will pull Fitbit information and send it to Apple health.

    There are apps that SAY they do, but I never got any of them to work.

    Oh I’ve tried a few before I got my Apple Watch and never had any problems.

    Apple Health would pull your activity from Fitbit, not MFP. You've checked that permission, right? If it's still not working I would suggest making sure all your apps have had the latest updates applied and then restarting the device through which you are running Apple Health (phone, probably?). If that doesn't fix it, then I would suggest deleting and re-downloading the MFP and Fitbit apps from your phone.

    Apple Health and Fitbit do not work with each other. The apps are not made to sync with each other. That’s why there are third party apps that will sync some information from Fitbit to Apple.
