Fitbit not syncing

I can't get my fitbit to sync yet again. Is it just me or is this happening more frequently. I don't understand the issues but it really messes up my routine.

    Same here. I just ride it out. Though it does seem to be happening more frequently.

    Me too. Second weekend on the trot it's stopped for no reason. Not updating yesterdays for love nor money. Todays will update but only if I login on the website and disconnect Fitbit then reconnect. Then it updates but then stops all over again.

    I did all that too. I just saw that MyFitnessPal is aware of the issue. The provided a statement on 6/22 but that’s it. Nothing new.

    Same issue here and it’s making me crazy. I did 11,000 steps today and MFP is only showing 5,000 😡

    Does anyone have a solution? I have tried uninstalling both fitbit and MFP apps and that did not work after reinstalling them.

    I have to disconnect the App and then reconnect every single time...very frustrating!

    Does anyone know of a good alternative to mfp? One that actually syncs with Fitbit? This was a problem last week, too, and it just seems to keep happening. I’m getting very frustrated and pissed that they can’t seem to get their act together.

    I have not seen anything about whether they are working on it. Is there a way to report the issue ?

    You don't need to report it. It is a known issue.

    Good to see I’m not the only one. I disconnected and reconnected but still get nothing. So much stuffing around on this is so frustrating

    Mine won’t sync regardless of what I do. I am getting beyond fed up.

    Same issue. For $9.99 per month I expect this to properly function.

    Not working here either. Keeping track of my nutritions and calories + keep me moving is supposed to make me happy. And it does when it works. Putting hours into the try to fix it is very annoying. I guess I try the food tracking function in th FB app now. The pain is motivation enough to learn sth new. By guys, see you later, maybe.

    It’s keeping track of my steps, but I also did Pilates today, and that’s not showing up

    I never used to be affected, but have been the last 3-4 times. I just disconnect and reconnect every time i want to sync.

    It’s extremely frustrating when I am paying for MFP & the Fitbit is not syncing. Whether to overeat or undereat, that is the question. My Fitbit app works perfectly so I expect I will have to consider another app that doesn’t have sync issues.
