Fitbit Not Syncing

Is anybody else having problems with their Fitbit syncing here? In order to sync I have to uninstall and reconnect everyday. It's not a big problem but certainly not convenient. The issue seems to be on the MFP side because my Fitbit recognizes the calories I record here.

Does anybody have any suggestions or solutions for this issue? Thank you!

    I would:

    1. Remove any integration with Fitbit from MFP on website and phone app.
    2. Remove any integration with MFP from both Fitbit app and website.
    3. LOG OUT from MFP phone app; MFP web site on computer; MFP web site on phone browser.
    4. LOG OUT from Fitbit on phone app and Fitbit on WebSite
    5. LOGIN to MFP web site (or phone app if that's the only way you use MFP, one of the two, by preference the web site
    6. Start the integration to Fitbit from scratch.

    While periodically there are problems, your problem as described does not seem to be the current experience for most. Something tells me that your connections and re-connections do not result into a completely clean new connection.

    Also... leaving it overnight and seeing if things will get better after midnight might be an idea.

    I appreciate your advice. Tried all the steps-- still an issue. Thank you, though!

    I think it's more of a mfp issue and not Fitbit. I know 4 others who use a Fitbit but use a logging source other than mfp and they said they don't have issues when I asked them.

    Fitbit & MFP have had issues since last week. The syncing is very temperamental. Mine has been acting up as well.
