    With a main point that really should be followed if you want to get out of it:

    Our team continues to investigate to isolate the root cause of the issue. At this time some users will see no data syncing, while some may see some data syncing sporadically. We are working on resolving this for all members.

    During this time, please do not relink your accounts, as this will further increase the backlog of sync requests.

    QFT.

    There's no reason to fiddle with it or panic. Just let the mysterious forces of interweb connectivity sort themselves out. :smile:

    You can't fix it yourself. They're working on it.

    Has MFP given an estimated time of repair? This is frustrating.

    That's the kicker with backlog type issues - you can view how many millions of transactions have to go, what the rate seems to be.

    But you can't estimate how many people will NOT follow the advice and keep adding to the backlog in their own attempt to fix the issue.

    Glad they're working on it. It's been 24 hours for me. Hopefully it'll be back soon.

    I am using guidance from previous similar days of activity when planning my calories for today. It’s nice when everything syncs, but I’m confident it will catch up eventually. When my diary is updated from the backlog, I’ll find out how good or bad I am at estimating.... I’m deciding to take it as a “learning opportunity” for me.

    Is there an update on the backlog and/or fix?

    Remember you can always look at your device as day progresses, or Fitbit app - at Total calories.
    Subtract your deficit.
    There's eating goal.

    My Inspire HR will not sync with MFP either. Just started today.
  • I can't get it to sync and I've updated firmware and the whole 9 yards. I'm thinking of discontinuing. It's not worth the aggravation

    Yes that’s my goal. I am comparing my calorie burn to similar days calorie burn in my Fitbit log. Since I look at my calories from a weekly perspective, it’s a little easier to adjust.

    FWIW I am seeing a slight change in my data. Last night my night time snack had not synced from MFP to Fitbit. The calories from that snack have now appeared in yesterday’s Fitbit log about 30 minutes ago. Today’s data hasn’t synced yet.

    OK, the MFP IOS appears to be working right now and it synced ok with the Garmin app but still isn't syncing

    Mine is still not synced. Almost a week now. Anybody else's taking this long?
