Bought 4 of these on the understanding that they would update onto the myfitnesspal website. One of them did during testing just before xmas but none of them seem to now?

When I now try to link i.e. "connect" the app on here it keeps taking me to an iTunes webpage for misfit but its an android device I need to connect.

Will be returning the misfits or finding an alternative to myfitnesspal unless I can get this resolved.

Any ideas anyone?

  • Still not working. I have opened up a case with Misfit but I suspect the issue is myfitnesspal as it will not allow me to add the misfit app and just goes to the iTunes page. I suspect they have a glitch that needs resolved.

    I believe it is with MyfitnessPal also. It only adds additional calories from the misfit tracker, not steps or other activities like biking or sleep. It still bounces to adding the itunes app (on my android phone). I have contacted MyfitnessPal and they are supposed to be looking into it but nothing has changed. So go to LoseIt or change trackers. One is free one isn't. I hate to change to Loseit but can't afford to switch fitness trackers.
  • That's a real pain in the proverbial. Misfit and myfitnesspal shouldn't be allowed to advertise they are compatible until they sort it. Many buy the hardware based on this info.

    You need to connect them from inside the Misfit app, not from MyFitnessPal.
    I hope that helps! I synced mine that way, and it works fine :smile:

    My MisFit shows it is synced, but not MFP. the info from MF is not uploading into MFP.
