Sync with the 8fit App

[Jacks22004]

Enable Fitbit to sync with the app called 8fit. This app has tons of good reviews and is an asset to physical health & fitness. The ability to sync it with Fitbit would be an even better option!

I was looking for a way to plan meals and most do not have a vegetarian, or vegan option. 8fit does and is reasonably priced, though I would like to integrate it with my fit it surge and fitbit account, to ease tracking of both meals and training.

Thank you very much for sharing your request. That would be a good way to keep track of your information, specially vegan food options.

I’d love to be able to sync my 8fit workout data with my Fitbit! 

[AlexandraFitbit]

Nice suggestion, thanks for sharing. We look forward to hearing what other community members think.

[LanuzaFitbit]

Thank you for sharing your idea with us @Jacks22004! I'm sure other users will find it interesting and support it.

Let's see what they have to say about it.

Yes agree sync to fit bit would be great along with meal plans to sync both ways 

[Shellbobell]

Yes please!

[Brookepeterson]

YES PLEASE. This is literally the one thing swaying me towards the Apple Watch. The second Fitbit gets 8fit I’m sold.

You should be able to sync the Fitbit app and 8fit. It would be great if you could log food on the Fitbit app from the 8fit database of recipes as well as tracking the calories burned during their workouts.

I use a number of apps to get a well rounded workout and 8fit is one of them. Will there be an option to integrate it into fitbit in the future?

Thanks for taking the time to share this idea @Drbrcohen.

Let's see what other users have to say about it.

[Docjth]

Absolutely agree - Please sync Fitbit and 8Fit!

[ArkanSass]

Yes, please allow them to sync! I am already planning on buying the Apple Watch, but if this had the sync ability, then I would stick with my Fitbit.

[ShuraNorth]

Yes please Please sync Fitbit and 8Fit!

[amberrocr]

Yes! This 8fit and Fitbit integration would be awesome!

[Koots]

My charge 2 is starting to show its age and I am looking into getting a new fitness tracker that syncs with 8fit. I like my Fitbit but I will change to be able to have an all encompassing fitness experience. I believe the Apple Watch is already supporting this app, but I want to stay with Fitbit. Please add support of 8fit app!!!

[MissChissy]

In the same boat, Charge 2 ageing, and 8Fit is the best app I've come across that has great workouts, decent vegetarian options and allows us to exclude foods we're allergic to in a comprehensive nutrition plan. Want a more holistic fitness management experience, so definitely considering switching if it comes down to it 😞

Moderator, is there any API I can check out in the meantime to share data across the apps?

[MissChissy]

P.S @Everyone here, we probably need more votes for this to float to the top. I'm sure you know other Fitbit and 8fit users who are interested in this, give them a nudge!

[marbemac]

+1 for Fitbit + 8fit integration!

[Alekxandra]

This is one of my favourite apps. I’m here trying to also see if it integrates and hoping that it will in the future. I have been using 8Fit for over a year but just got my Charge 3 around Christmas. This app has such wonderful fitness programs for people of all abilities and for me offers a very holistic fitness solution with cardio and Fitbit tracking. Please consider adding it for future integration!  Thank you so very much !!

Hi there, the very first suggestion was made back in 2016 regarding the 8fit app to sync with Fitbit. As I read what other community members and loyal customers shared, I'm disappointed that yet, 3 years later you're still replyingr "let's see what other community members have to say". Even if it were one person suggesting on ways that you (Fitbit moderators) can enhance and continue to surprise us, I would hope that you take that one person's suggestion to heart. But now, as part of your mission statement reads, ". . . . We design products and experiences that fit seamlessly into your life so you can achieve your health and fitness goals, whatever they may be"., that whatever they may be IS having 8fit sync with Fitbit. On behalf of the community who has already commented on this, who have asked about any future collaborations with 8fit, I think we deserve a genuine answer and not -

"Nonetheless, if this is something in which you're interested. I would like to invite you to share you request in our feature suggestion board. feel free to contribute with your ideas and comments, it would be nice to have your feedback here.

See you around!"

Respectfully,

Your Fitbit community
