Hi Everyone - 

 

Our team is currently aware that as of last Thursday, Withing scales users are unable to access the Withings link and may not be able to sync or setup their scale with Fitbit. We are working on a fix and hope to have it resolved soon. Thank you very much for your patience and reports. 

 

Please follow this thread for updates. 

 

Since this thread is on an older, resolved issue, I'll be closing it for further reports to keep things tidy.

Hi Kate, is it possible the Withings Connection Wizard does not work anymore because of this change?

Best Answer

@JohanV66 possibly. Have you revoked access and tried setting up again? If it's still not working can you tell me the error message you see or provide a screenshot?

I'm receiving the same error - chat support advised me to open a new Fitbit account, which doesn't seem like the right advice. 

 

@KateFitbit are you able to reset the sync status on an account so that we can set it up again? 

Best Answer

I keep getting this error message when I grant Withings acess

 

{"errors":[{"message":"redirect_uri_mismatch: The redirect URI provided is missing or does not match partner callback url"}]}

Hi Kate... your link goes to the help page saying to setup the link from the Withings app...there is nowhere in the Withings app to link 3rd party apps...the link I have always used was = https://www.fitbit.com/weight/withings#

When I go to that link as of yesterday..the error message I get is :

Please fix the following errors:
  • Oops! An unexpected error occurred. If it continues please report it at help.fitbit.com. Error id: AC448DB8:BD52_A92D91DD:01BB_5CB74B04_78E1D:1C69

This issue really needs to be fixed once and for all. I like my Charge 3 but the Aria scale is complete garbage and Withing's smartwatch offerings are closing the gap quickly.

Hi everyone.

The same problem 😞

Hey @GeorgeG3 .. what's your reasoning behind the Aria scale being garbage? I was honestly thinking to give up on the integration with Withings and get one instead - what makes the Aria bad? 

Best Answer
For the price it's pretty inaccurate compared to similarly priced scales,
poor build quality, connectivity was an every other day issue. My Withings
gives me the weather, which is nice, and I get a look at the past week or
so of weigh-ins at the scale. Maybe they've updated things in the last few
years, but I've had no reason to look at it since getting my Withings
(which isn't even their top-line model)

Same problems as all mentioned as of today. Attempting to unlink through the normal Withings link     results in an error. Problem started on my Tuesday 4/16 weigh-in. Monday synced fine.

The aria scale has many issues with the ability get wifi from certain firewalls and configurations. Also after several months it begins draining battery to the point that you will be changing batteries every few days.
