Fitbit Compatibility with Apple Health

[Minty10058]

Is there a really good reason why as a Fitbit can NOT be connected to the Apple Health app?

i get that they would love you to buy an Apple Watch but, I don’t need one. I have a Versa. It would be nice if it all linked for me to easily show my consultants & doctors to help them understand my conditions in conjunction to my heart rate, sleep & exercise.

I'm not glad discovering nor communicating this (as I just acquired a couple of shiny new AltaHR's) but Fitbit not syncing with Apple Health is a business decision, not a difficulty or SW issue (in fact it has not such kind of sync limitations on Android OS: Health, Thirty party Chatting apps notifications (Whatsapp, Telegram, Signal))

I hope that Fitbit C-level guys finally realize and allow all of the "other's" iOS customers also fully enjoy their products some day (I hope soon than later, because the competitors are ruthless and the market brands is skrinking).

Why would you pay hundred of dollars for a wearable limited in SW features under iOS in purpose? (On Android OS supports everything from above)

Fitbit should take more care of Alta/AltaHR/Charge product customers using iOS; otherwise they will move to Withings, or even cheapers Huawei, Xiaomi bands.

Hello @Torakaru, I hope you're doing well, thanks for joining the conversation.

Even though an integration with Apple Health is not foreseen in the near future the Fitbit Web API is available for any 3rd-party developers that would be able to create an iOS app that would sync Fitbit data with the Health app. 

Once again, I appreciate your patience and understanding, have a great day.
