Calorie sync

Hello,

Does anyone have calories syncing correctly between s health and mfp?

S health doesn't seem to send anything to mfp and if I try it the other way s health doesn't get any nutritional information, just calories.

Thanks!

    Have you turned on data permissions in S Health?

    Does it sync automatically or do you have to do it manually?

    Yes, it's working fine for me @TomHayward78. At this time you have to use S Health to transfer exercise, & yes it has to be manually synced. The MFP app for Samsung Gear is pretty useless right now. I hope that changes soon. The only glitch I've seen is it wants to double record steps from my phone over steps from my gear. Not a huge issue because I don't carry my phone most of the day & at this point in the game I can mentally adjust my calories based on the step difference.

    I am having the same issue. It works find for the steps and exercise just not the calorie. I should mention that on my page, even though steps etc are synching it says not connected to gear.

    My SHeath stopped syncing on Thursday (06/22/2017). I looked it up and there is apparently a bug. My steps are not syncing either.

    I paid for MFP premium a couple of weeks before this hit. I'm considering reaching out for a refund if they don't get it fixed by the end of this next week.
