So im having trouble getting my fitbit to sync with my fitness pal app. I have deactivated and resynced them both. It says they are both synced...but when i click sync on the myfitness pal app nothing for my exercise for the day shows up. I walk all day at my work and have burnt over 2k calories. I have the fitbit charge HR btw.

Please help!!!

    My Vivofit "syncs", but MFP doesn't credit me with steps above-and-beyond the normal activity. My calories from MFP transfer to my Vivofit; so the Vivo might say I ate less than my total calorie burn for the day - but MFP will still insist I ate too many calories. I'll be watching your post to see if someone more techie than me can explain...

    im having the same issue as well. its showing its connected but not showing my fitbit steps. i tried disconnecting to try again but it wont let me do that either. (ive tried with a fitbit zip and fitbit charge hr)

    let me know if you find a solution, thanks

    I've had the same problem for the last few days. Can't work out why. I'm going to contact live chat later.

    Please let us know what they say. It's nice to know if I earn calories by walking a bunch during my days.

    Yes, please do--I've got the same problem: since 8/6! Getting ready to dump MFP if something doesn't change soon...

    I can't get my fitbit HR charge to sync with my fitness pal either. I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting with no luck and tried entering exercise data to jump start it as mentioned as a suggestion, but that doesn't work either. This used to be a seamless process. What happened?

    go to apps on your main page(mfp not fitbit) on a pc,then select steps,make sure that fitbit is selected,if not select it and that should fix the issue. mine was unchecked somehow and was having the same issues. but it wont show until tomorrow most likely(took mine 24hrs to reset itself to track steps again). hope that helps
