Hey guys! I had a Fitbit for a while but stopped using it and now the battery dies after a few hours even on a fresh charge. The warranty ended just two months ago so I'm not sure there's much I can do in that aspect.

The only thing that bugged me was being forced to have my data only in Fitbit's system. I'm an avid iOS user and I want everything in Apple Health. For some reason, I am almost viewing it as a must. If only Fitbit synced with Apple Health :'(

I know there are sync options out there - it seems a little hectic to sync regularly, and I can see potential problems with two sets of data / overwriting etc. Does anyone use any of the syncing apps currently and how are you finding it? I don't even care about the Smart Watch aspect, I just want the stats / data, and Fitbit SEEMS like the most affordable option in this case. (Inspire HR / Charge 4).

Thanks in advance!

Hi Reene, I use the Power Sync app for syncing to IOS from my Sense.  Its not a perfect solution but it is one of the more cost effective synching apps in the gallery and it does provide automatic updating several times a day.  The step data is additive so the step counts are wrong but useful as a trend since my usage is predictable. I carry my phone everywhere and I wear my Sense everywhere.  Also heartrate is presented as an average value rather than a minute to minute to minute.  I dont see the value in that number but others might.
