While loving the app and it definitely has been a game changer, I’m noticing you cannot link a device in order to track your activity apparently you have to purchase one of the tracking devices from a company that is sponsoring the app. I think that’s unfair why should we have to spend more money and we’re just trying to get healthy??

    If you use Apple products you can set the Health App to allow your watch and/or phone to track your activity.
    I suspect this is also true of FitBit?

    I’m sure others will chime in about other devices.

    I have a Samsung watch and cannot link. Because I don’t always carry my iPhone around, it is not accurate for step tracking.

    That's the first time I've heard about a sponsored brand and nothing else syncing.

    Garmin is compatible in any case. You can see a list here: https://www.myfitnesspal.com/apps

    If you are on Android, sync your data via either:
    Google Fit or
    Google Health Connect.
