@Helpme22 Welcome to the Community! The suggestions are going to appear if you have Fitbit and Facebook linked. As soon as you unlinked them then the suggestions will disappear, if you don't want to see them then unlink them. 

 

Hope this helpsSmiley Happy

I understand they are linked but I don't know how to unlink them! I've looked every where, settings in FAcebook, settings in Fitbit, settings in my phone. I need to know how to unlink them.

@Helpme22 Thanks for those details! To unlink the accounts follow this procedure: 

Go to your Dashboard > click on settings > Applications > search for Facebook > click on Revoke Access. 

 

Hope this helps.

I'm trying to unsync facebook from my charge 2 and I can't find where to do it.  I've followed steps but I dont see an "application" tab to choose from.  Any advice?

@JennFit You have to do it from the settings page on the fitbit.com dashboard. Click the applications tab, find Facebook, and revoke access.

I find the application page, but "Facebook" does not show up as one of the connected applications. But, when I go to the Friends page it still says Facebook is connected.

Welcome to the Forums @ChelCRae.

 

What exactly do you see on the connected apps? Could you share a screen shot of what you see? 

 

Additionally, you could try to disconnect them through Facebook directly. That should let you remove the connection between the two by going into the app settings over there.

 

Feel free to reach out with any further questions.

@ChelCRae Hello, have you manage to disconnect it? Have same situation, cannot see Facebook on the list so not able to revoke but still on the Friends tab it says that it's connected.

Welcome to the  Forums @JoAFC.

 

Thanks for sharing that you do not see the Facebook connection.

 

Maybe you could check on Facebook's end to see if Fitbit shows as being connected to it. You can read more about it in here.

 

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi, yes, Facebook shows connection but Fitbit still doesn't show FB on the Manage Third Party Apps tab.

Hello @JoAFC.

 

Thanks getting back to me.

 

In that case, let's try to disconnect them from the Facebook end and then setup the connection once more. That should do the trick!

 

Let me know if you have any further questions.

I have just received a fitbit charge 2
I tried to connect to fb friends but the android app didn t find any friend (strange)

I want to disconnect my fb account  and there is no application in my settings ( https://www.fitbit.com/settings/applications )

I see that I am connected to my fb account though when I want to search friends in https://www.fitbit.com/friends (btw it's strange that I can only "invite friends by email" (translation from french) in this page though )
I then removed the fitbit app from my fb account (see screenshot below)

dstill I see that I am connected to my fb account though when I want to search friends in https://www.fitbit.com/friends ... any help ?? thanks !

oops forget what I said right above : 

 

just had to wait for a few hours and then I saw from the fitbit app that my facebook account was actually disassociated from my facebook account ...

Hello @pierro78.

 

Thanks for letting us know that it did go away after a couple of hours.
