I have an iPhone 6s and a Fitbit Alta. I am trying to sync google calendar to my Fitbit because I like it more, but it doesn’t give me any options. Can I change the calendar?

Hello @Adgupta, have a warm welcome to the Fitbit Community, it's great to have you on board. Smiley Happy

 

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, unfortunately at this moment, when you enable calendar notifications in the Fitbit app for your Alta, only the default Apple Calendar will send notifications to your Alta. What I have set on my iPhone in order to link both my Google Calendar with the Apple Calendar app is the following:

 

  1. Go to Settings > Accounts & Passwords > Add Account
  2. Select Google
  3. Log in to the Google Account you want to link, then tap on Next.
  4. Enable the slider for Calendars
  5. Open the Apple Calendar app 
  6. At the bottom of the screen, tap the Calendars icon to display a list of all calendars to which your iPhone has access. It'll include all of your private, shared, and public calendars linked to your Google Account.
  7. Select or deselect the individual calendars you want to appear when you're accessing the iOS calendar app. You can adjust the list and change the default color associated with each calendar within the app by clicking the circled red i on the right side of the calendar name; in the new window, select a different color and even rename the calendar, then tap Done at the top of the screen.

Now that the calendars have synced, checked if the Apple Calendar contains your appointments and events, if so, you will receive Apple Calendar alerts on your phone, which will transfer to the Alta.

 

I hope this can be helpful, give it a try and keep me posted in case you need anything else.
