Technical difficulties with MFP and Fitbit??

I just re-downloaded MFP but this time around, it’s not updating steps/cals burned as Fitbit does in real time. I’m having to unlink my Fitbit app a million times and I’ve tried syncing about the same. I even uninstalled MFP to see if that would work and NADA! When I had the app on my phone a few years back, it was great so I was able to track everything properly so I’m not what’s going on. Has anyone experienced these issues? How can they be fixed for good because having to unlink/re link/ force sync it every time I exercise is so frustrating!!!! Help!

I have also noticed that Fitbit doesn't synch well with MFP. My steps synch, but not my workouts. And if I try to add a workout to MFP, it adds to my Fitbit account (so then it appears twice).
Very frustrating!!0 -
I feel your pain. I'm having to do the same 3 or 4 times a day to be able to track calories. Incredibly frustrating!
