Health Connect and Fitbit

[terminus]

Just checked this morning and it looks like Fitbit now works with Health Connect

[BoutTime]

Apparently version 3.69 of the app. Mine is yet to update.

Version 3.69 now installed, and all set up in Health Connect and Google Fit. But Google Fit not showing data from Fitbit.

[TyronP]

Yeah same for me. Nothing shows 🤷🏿‍:male_sign:.

There's a new version of Health Connect that shows recent access

[TyronP]

Yes it only shows google fit but not Fitbit.

Ok I'm not alone. I'm not sure how often Fitbit will write data to health connect and how often Google fit will read this data. If it should work instantly it don't work for the moment. 

It looks like that it is possible to activate now within the Fitbit app within account settings.  As soon as I activate this it startet to sync all information.

[BoutTime]

Great news. The option isn't showing for me yet so maybe I'm waiting for an update to the Fitbit app.

[Roni1979]

Are you sure? I´ve actual version 3.69 installed. As you can see the latest point before "logout" is now health connect! See screenshot !

TBH I hadn't noticed that Health Connect was in Settings until you mentioned it so I wonder if this is something that was activated recently.

[BoutTime]

Ok I'm an idiot it's there!I was looking under a account settings. Danke schon!

Google Fit app has pulled in data from Fitbit. It's even filled the gaps for sleep for when I was away from home last week and away from my bedside nest hub.

Nice! Thanks! Didn't notice this here 🙌🏿

Nice! I just bumped into this new feature and did a search in the forums for an official announcement by Fitbit. Stupid me 😅

Hello everyone. 

Thanks for reaching out regarding the connection of Fitbit and Health Connect. As it has been confirmed here, it is now possible to link your Fitbit account with Google Health Connect. 

In order to do so please open the Fitbit app. Tap on your profile picture. Scroll all the way down. The last option reads "Health Connect". Tap on it to grant access and sync with Health Connect. That way your information will be synced to your Google account. 

Have a nice day!

Hi. Is this function not available in the UK?

I'm on Android, have Health Connect app on my phone and have updated the Fitbit app to 3.70. I still cannot see the option to connect under settings.

[BoutTime]

Yes it is. Just above the logout button.

 

[terminus]

It is available in the UK but the option should be above the log out button and not in the app settings.

I'm not sure how you have 3.70 as 3.69 is the version on the Play Store.

I hope these screenshots show up correctly.

[BoutTime]

Strange. I better not update then.

[K0enig]

I didn't have the Health Connect option on 3.69 and only updated to 3.70 this morning in the hope it would appear.

[terminus]

I haven't seen the 3.70 update yet so maybe they pulled it from the store
