I have a Wahoo heart rate monitor that syncs to Map My Fitness and my workout data transfers fine. No problem there.
I have Map My Fitness synced to Fitbit and it shows connected but my workout data never shows up in my logs so Fitbit doesn't count it and I've had to log it manually.
What's the point of syncing if the info does not transfer automatically? (rhetorical question) I tried shutting down the apps, reloading the app, rebooting, etc. Both apps say they are synced with the other but still the info doesn't show up in Fitbit.
Anyone have any ideas to try or similar problems?

I'm struggling with many questions regarding MMF and Fitbit. From what I can see Fitbit will share some info with MMF but MMF does not share (export) any data to Fitbit. The only feature that MMF uses Fitbit data for is the 24/7 tab and only steps, distance, weight, and activity calories . It doesn't display sleep and will only show the number of workouts (like that's useful). Also it does not import nutrition (foods eaten).
So the short answer is MMF will not share data with Fitbit, it only imports data from Fitbit to MMF. MMF views the Fitbit as a data recording device like a heartrate monitor or a scale and sees itself as the primary application for displaying that data.
At least that is my analysis based on my experiences. No one at MMF of Fitbit has answered my inquiries regarding these questions. If someone has experience otherwise I'd love to hear how they did it.

Same problem here. Map My Ride is fine, says it sync's but nothing transfers... 😞
