Morning.

I have sporadically used mapmyrun to see how far I make it on my bike rides. I recently downloaded myfitnesspal. Before I realized they could be linked I found myself with two different accounts. Is there a way to link two accounts without having to re-enter all of my information from one account into the other?

MUCH THANKS!!!

    what type of phone do you have? you'll have to access the app and grant person to mapmyrun for the info to be exported to map

    iPhone. (I attached the snapshot of the myfitnesspal settings.) I think they are all correct as to what you are referencing. My problem is I created two separate accounts so my mapmyrun is linked to 123@gmail.com where the myfitnesspal is connected to xyz@gmail.com. My dumba** didn't think before creating the myfitnesspal account

    I have the same question as Kaylyn. I have 2 usernames because I downloaded Map my fitness a few years ago and just did MFP. How do we combine the 2 accounts to use the same email and usernames?

    It shouldn't matter what usernames/emails you used as long as you're logged in via your phone. After you've logged in to map my fitness go to the MFP app and connect from there

    Maybe I'm just dumb. But I'm not seeing it. I went through phone settings, app settings...I can't find a way to link my to user profiles..

    Never fails, ask a dumb question and you find the answer right after. Thanks for the patience.

    Alex: I was logged into both accounts on the apps on my iPhone. Top left of the mapmyrun app is the drop down. Clicked that, went to connect apps and devices. I don't know if it matters or not but I turned on the iPhone motion sensor. Then scrolled down and found the myfitnesspal button, clicked it, used my myfitnesspal login, and BOOM. Connected.
