Buying new treadmill - sync data with fitbit

I would like to know if any treadmill manufacturers have software / Android apps that will sync the treadmill workout data to my Fitbit app?

@Lezm001, I don't know of any treadmill that interfaces with the Fitbit trackers, but I use the Treadmill Exercise Mode on my Charge 2 and it gives me more information than the treadmills do. The Charge 2 gives me the time, steps, heart rate, calorie burn, and mileage for the exercise. The treadmill gives me only time, mileage, and estimated calories - but the calories are based on random averages since it does not use any personal data such as age, weight, or sex. The mileage calculated by the Charge 2 is always within a close range of what the treadmill reports for the exercise.  I use different treadmills, depending on whether I am working out at the gym or at home, but the Charge 2 always records the data.

Thanks for the thoughts / information. I'm considering a treadmill with a
steep incline so the workout is more intense without the stress on the body
that comes from running. I was doubting that the fitbit would accurately
track this type of workout since the number of steps in that workout will
be much more calories burn than walking with no incline. What i hear you
saying is the heartbeat that the fitbit is tracking will factor into the
calories burned on the fitbit?
