Hi. I’m rejoining after 2 years away from tracking with mfp. I’m trying to get my fitbit blaze tonsync with mfp and visa versa but all I’m getting is iPhone steps activity which I don’t want. I’ve disabled iPhone health app with mfp but still can’t sync with fitbit. Please advise

    Greetings. I'm new to mfp and fitbit so can completely relate to the challenges around setting everything up. Assuming that your ftibit is already talking to your iPhone, open mfp on your phone, tap the '...' (more) icon in the bottom right; tap on 'Steps' from the list; and tap the FitBit Tracker from the device list. If you only want to use your fitbit to track steps (and heart rate if your fitbit supports HR tracking) you can also disable all motion and fitness tracking on your iPhone by going to Settings / Privacy / Motion & Fitness and from there disable Fitness Tracking. Again you should do this if you want your fitbit to be the only device counting steps. HTH
