Fitbit trackers and /Samsung S Heath App?

[R_Fawkes]

Hi ... has anyone synced Fitbit trackers (Blaze and Alta) with S-Health app?  Was speaking with the Samsung rep at BB.  Apparently FB trackers routinely have issues syncing (to Fitbit account) with Samsung smartphones.  (I know the whole process with resetting, turning Bluetooth on and off, etc. ... often resort to restarting both galaxy and tracker just to get a twice daily sync.)  The rep actually had a Fitbit (Blaze) and a Gear Fit2.  Difference was amazing.  He really liked his Blaze but couldn't get his to sync either.  His Fit2 and synced seamlessly to S-Health app which is remarkably similar to the Fitbit app.  So ... has anyone been able to sync their Fitbit tracker with S Health.   I'd like to recoup the investment I made in my Fitbits and was thinking I could do it thru S-Health.

@R_Fawkes welcome to the forums! Thanks for the feedback. At this moment, there is no way of syncing S Health with Fitbit trackers. However, I invite you to make your voice heard in the Feature Request forum; click here to check out this idea I've found about integrating S Health and Fitbit. Make sure to add your vote and comments to this idea so it gains relevance. Good luck!

@Mar13 welcome to the forums! I'm a little confused by what you are asking. I mean, the Samsung Gear Fit2 can't be linked to the Fitbit app since it's not a Fitbit tracker. If you'd like to join a Fitbit Challenge, please pair a Fitbit tracker to your account by following these instructions. Good luck and let me know if you have further inquiries.

I had this issue also. Samsung updated the app to allow sleep tracking through fitbit, but it doesn't seem to sync daily. Go to settings>connected services>log into fitbit. It will show one night then stop. (For me at least) 

I found that myfitnesspal allows communication between the two. But mainly for meal logging, which was my main concern.

Thanks for joining us @Tvsutton1987! If your tracker doesn't seem to sync, then I recommend reviewing these steps and following the troubleshooting posted there. I really hope this helps!

Also, to have your Android device syncing automatically refer to this post with further info. 

Last but not least MyFitnessPal is one of the compatible apps with Fitbit. Check out this post with more information about it. Good luck and keep me posted!
