Garmin Vivosmart question

I'm moving from a Fitbit Charge HR to a Garmin. It should be here this week, but now I'm wondering if I made a mistake. I keep seeing folks on here talking about sync issues with MFP. For you folks that have one, how does it work for you?

    I have a Vivoactive--no sync issues of which I'm aware.

    If I stray too far from my phone and the bluetooth disconnects (or if my phone dies), I just sync with the Garmin app and the bluetooth connects. The Garmin does not sync with MFP if the bluetooth is not active.

    I have a vivosmart and have no problems synching with MPF. Good luck!

    I feel a lot better about it now. Looking forward to getting it on my wrist. First time in 3 years I haven't had one on and I feel a bit naked! And, oh the missed steps!!

    I love my Garmin! Haven't had any issues with syncing either.
