Fitbit should really consider adding Noom as a 3rd party app.

I would like Fitbit to seek a partnership with Noom so steps can be synced with that app.

Would also like to sync with Noom.  It had been syncing with Noom until a couple of days ago.  Is Fitbit blocking it?

Fitbit doesn't include Noom as one of its partner apps. I sent them a
request to do so but not sure if that will help.

Thanks, I also sent a note to my Noom coach that many Fitbit owners were
contemplating leaving Noom because of this and asked him to escalate my
note to a higher up. I personally don’t have an issue with using two apps
but many do. We will see what happens!

Me too! If Fitbit supported Noom, it would really benefit my fitness goals - especially the step tracker.

I contacted Nooms help desk and let them know their app was not listed as compatible and that there were some Moom users considering not keeping their subscriptions.  They responded by telling me thanks for letting them know and that they will be working with their developers for a fix to the issue.

I totally agree.  Both are too expensive to not use either together- please work on this

I received this message from Fitbit support.

Hi. At this time, we have no info on this. However, the integration of Noom
with Fitbit has been suggested recently by a Fitbit user to our developers.

Noom is the only health app which focuses on psychological health along with nutrition and fitness. Please get this app added to fitbit.  Those like me, who struggle with emotional eating and bad habits need this psychological component.

I agree,I  would like Fitbit to seek a partnership with Noom so steps can be synced with that app. Very frustrating that they don't. Come on Fitbit-get on top of this!!

I would like the synchronization to include food logged, steps, and workout information. So, food input from Noom to Fitbit and step/workout information from Fitbit to Noom. .

I really think you should partner with Noom to better sync steps with their app

Hi it would be really awesome if you could partner with the NOOM app. They say they are but I checked with your company and you are not.

I found this board because I was searching for a tracker that works with Noom because I am beyond frustrated with Fitbit not syncing. This app works for many because of its focus on the psychological aspects of over eating. Please find a way for them to sync more consistently. I like my Fitbit and have been using them for years, but I need this to be seamless and easy if I am going use it consistenly. I am sure others feel the same way.

Yes, please integrate, the most frustrating part is that for work incentives I need to use Fitbit as it is the more known app, but Noom supports other aspects of my weightloss journey and tracks food in a different way thta I find helpful, so would like the food to sync back so it can report in to Fitbit. My steps do sync, I am also asking for the food portion to sync

Hello @zhencheval.

 

Thanks for sharing your idea with us. Having the option to have Noom on the watches could be very useful for fans of that app.

 

Let's see what others have to say.

I have spent a very frustrating 3 hours over the last two days trying to sync my Fitbit with Noom.  Evidently, Noom in not on the list of compatible 

Fitbit 3rd party apps....why not?  Please allow these two apps to work together.   Thanks.

I also would like to have NOOM as a compatible 3rd party app. It worked great a couple of months ago, as long as I kept my watch and the Fitbit app synched. Now, I cannot get it to synch with NOOM at all. I’ve double-checked settings on both apps and nothing works. I’m a beginner and this is a frustrating disappointment.

I am using Noom to track meals but it doesn't report to FitBit. I get my weight from my Aria (FitBit) scale and Exercise/Sleep data, but not meals. I suppose this means that FitBit reports, but doesn't receive from other apps. Wish it would!
