Hi I have a garmin and need to sync with fitbit to do the 5x50 challenge. I have synced my garmin to garmin connect, then to myfitnesspal, then to fitbit. I do about 10,000 steps a day but for whatever reason they do not sync to fitbit. Any advice?

Welcome to the Forums @PhillCoe.

 

I will be moving this thread to the Third Party Integration board as I think it is better suited for it.

 

In regards to the syncing. It is definitely a possibility but I'd like to mention that not all data from MFP will sync over to Fitbit. Only 'activities' are synced over, which means that regular steps are not. Taking this into consideration, it would explain why the details are not getting to Fitbit.

 

Please keep in mind that these integrations are developed by the third-parties and thus we do not have control on what information syncs from where and how it does so.

 

Let me know if you have any other questions.
