Hey, I was curious if anyone else has experienced this issue and what you may have done to fix it. I've Googled some things, but haven't been able to fix it yet.

In my Apple Health app, I have syncing to MFP enabled and everything is checked on, and for a while, I hadn't had any issues. Every day that I exercise, my calories burnt get brought into MFP and it logs my exercises. The past few days though, this stopped.

I've tried to delete the MFP app and re-install it, I've toggled the the syncing off and on, and still can't get it working again.

Does anyone know why this might be happening and what I could do to fix it?

    I am having the same problem. Every day my calories have been automatically transferring from my health app to mfp. Today they did not. I think when other apps do updates it interferes with mfp.

    Same. Why isn't it fixed? I'll likely delete MFP if this isn't updated.

    These apps pull the active energy information from Apple Health:
    Sparkpeople
    LifeSum
    LoseIt

    I went around through different apps to see if it was just MFP. So far I still can’t figure out where MFP is getting its numbers from, but I am talking with them and sending screenshots of what exactly is happening. Hopefully with the information they get they can fix the problem.

    Same issue here! Mine hasn’t synced my exercise over since before last Saturday 1/26. Not sure why when it was working on 1/24.

    Right now I’m collecting a few days worth of information to send to them.

    I have the Apple Watch 4 and it was syncing just fine until just a few days ago, now it’s off by about 3000 steps a day. What gives?

    I also have the series 4 Apple Watch and don’t have any issues at all syncing it with MFP.

    That is the same app that I had been using and worked fine and just suddenly stopped syncing. I am so confused by this.

    ^ Is your Apple Watch software up to date? It should be on Watch OS 5.1.3

    ^ ok, I just checked my watch and it is on OS 5.1.2 Let me see if I can do a software update (although it hasn't prompt me for one). Hopefully I can get an update and then it will work. Fingers crossed....

    Sometimes when the synching is wonky I delete the MFP app from my phone and then reload it and log in. That works. Other times, just logging in on my phone (as opposed to my laptop where I usually add my intake data) works. I have Apple Watch 3. One bug that has been pretty constant for the last year is duplicate meal calorie counts - if I pre-log and then change after I have had the meal, AH makes a new entry for that meal (so I'll end up with 2 dinners, e.g.). But that's pretty easy to catch.

    So frustrating. This morning it worked. But when I try to manual sync from under Armour Record it doesn’t show a current sync time. At this point I’m not sure I can rely on it.

    Maybe it’s an issue related to Armour Record and how that syncs with MFP
    ? I only have my Apple Watch 4 synced with MFP via the Health App data, and it’s been perfect since I set it up.

    I am having a sync issue now with MFP as well. I have never had an issue until yesterday. I got it to work and to track my workout and again today it will not pick them up.

    If you’re one of those with the new dashboard view, there’s a known syncing issue that they are working on.

    My husband is having same problem. (He’s on free and has new dash). I’m not (I’m on premium and still have old dash).
