Problem Connecting Withings Scale

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Just got my Fitbit Charge.    I linked in my myfitnespal account with no problem.   But, when I attempted to link my Withings account Fitbi says invalid user ID and password.     I double checked that I had the Withings user ID and password correct,  it is, there seems to be some sort of an issue.

 

Am I doing something wrong?   Or, is there some sort of outage?

I am getting a similar error..  I was able to link my Withings profile to my Fitbit profile a week or two ago.  I just tried my wife's a couple days ago and it does not seem to cooperate.

Its good to lnow it worked 2 weeks ago. They need to fix this.

 

Honestly they should just make a scale that connects to your phone via blutooth. What a stupid desision to make the fitbit Aria scale ONLY conect via Wi-Fi. The only reason I got the Withings one was so I could sync it with my Fitbit app!!!

I just tried this as well - still get an error message that says either the user ID or password are wrong or the user does not allow the connection.
