My Shine does sync with MFP automatically. If you choose swimming as your 'activity' extra in settings, then you just triple tap your Shine to let it know you're starting that particular activity.

If you cut out gluten, you won't be tootin' <sorry, I HAD to say it, definitely not my usual type of thing to say :smiley: >

Mine (Misfit Shine) suddenly stopped syncing with MFP even though they're still connected. I even disconnected and reconnected and still nothing :(

Thanks very much for the replies! Glad I remembered to check back here, lol!

Hi! How do you get the shine to communicate with MFP in the first place? I lost my Shine and have another one ordered and would like to 'hook' them up :wink:

Help! lol I'm trying intermittent fasting and recently started going to a gym for the first time in my life (in my 40's).
