Hi @russochrissy, thanks for taking the time to share this suggestion about having the option to sync with 3rd party meditation apps. I've moved it into a similar request.

Thank you again for your participation in the Feature Suggestions Forums.
I just bought my first Fitbit yesterday (Luxe), and as it seems I can’t sync my regular mindfulness app (Calm), or reading the previous answers I don’t understand how to do it, it’d be great if there was a possibility to log my mindfulness sessions manually.
I would love to sync mindful minutes with Calm. Calm syncs with my Google fit - it seems like this would make it an easy integration. The calm offerings in the premium app are limited. I want to use the whole calm library.
Hi @1882Lesley, thanks for taking the time to share this product feedback about syncing your 3rd party app mindfulness sessions with Fitbit with us. I noticed this product feedback was already requested on this board, so I’ve moved your post here. Please support this product feedback by adding your vote, this helps our developers to keep tracking its popularity and demand over time.
I wish fitbit would sync with my calm meditation sessions. I have a subscription with calm so the subset of calm sessions offered in the mindfulness tile seem insufficient and unsatisfactory.
I would like to stay in the fitbit universe but they would need to offer more and have options for people with a pre-existing practice. A timer mode would be helpful, too.
Might be hard to compete with apps like Calm, though.
In addition to the apps in the original comment, I saw others mention “the tapping solution” app, and I concur. I use the tapping solution, insight timer, mood mint and others at least 4 times a week, but my Fitbit shows no mindful days and no reflections which means that the stress management score Fitbit displays for me is not accurate. Please integrate these apps. I’ve used these apps for many years prior to Fitbit having mindfulness tracking, so I will continue to use those apps as that is where my complete mindfulness tracking exists.
…or, if it’s easier, at least allow us to log mindful time manually or via a timer we could start when we start our mindful time on another app…clunky, but at least we could try to keep things accurate. Something has to be done.
I am sad this was brought up back in 2021 and still isn’t added I use Aura after having it on the Fitbit app however I can’t track anything or any of the multiple ones like a use or headspace
as a years long user of Fitbit I have become frustrated with the lack of integration with meditation apps. so much so I am now begrudgingly on the hunt or a replacement, smart watch
So does Fitbit not want to hear product improvement suggestions from their customers?
As a small business owner all my best decisions so far have come from listening to my customers.
The way that forum user agreement is written it sounds like Fitbit doesn't really want to hear what we have to say. And from the responses I've seen from the moderators so far that seems to be the case.
Pretty discouraging.
I've been pretty happy with this product so far and was optimistic about it's possibilities for 3rd party mindfulness application integration until I saw the responses to the existing posts in this forum.
Fitbit can do better and can start by changing its policy to reflect a desire to directly engage and respond to the needs of its customers.
