Pokemon GO with Fitbit?

[lunlaur]

Can my Fitbit that I use with an Android phone be linked to Pokemon Go?

Moderator edit: Subject for clarity.

No, it can't and Fitbit said they are no planning to do it.

@Dopovo Thanks for your input. It is true there is no direct integration with Pokemon Go. However, it is possible to link Pokemon GO to your Google account, which you can link to Pokemon Go. 

@lunlaur Welcome to the forums. Thanks for reaching out about Pokemon GO and Fitbit. 

It is possible to get your steps transferred to your Google account. These will then be counted towards your daily activity. As long as your Pokemon GO account is linked to your google account through the adventure sync, they will be counted. I have been gathering lots of candies with my Pokemon buddy thanks to this feature. Open Pokemon Go and go to the game settings. Tap on “general settings”  and select “Adventure sync.” and select Google Fit. You will be prompted to grant permission for Pokemon Go to access your Google Fit data. Allow it by clicking on “Allow” or “Yes.”. 

To connect your Fitbit account to your Google account, open the app and tap on your profile picture, scroll down all the way to the bottom and tap on "Health Connect". Follow the instructions on screen to link accounts. That should get your daily activity to count towards Pokemon GO too. Hope this helps!
