Does anyone successfully use 2 Fit Bits?

 

I like to use a Flex2 for swimming and then change to my Alta for use during the day. I contacted support and they informed me that this is possible, but I find that they fight with each other when syncing and the steps on my Flex2 get wiped out?

I've used multiple fitbits quite often over the years (I think the maximum was 4 at one time). I did get some strange results in the beginning but got into the habit of syncing whenever I swapped and when doing that I had no issues. Not sure how practical that would be just before / after swimming.

 

I did find that the sync time was much longer though as it keeps looking for each of the connected fitbits and seems to go round them a couple of times before it stops.

 

You certainly can get strange results if you wear more than one at the same time but this doesn't sound like the problem you're having.
