### 1/5 — Starts syncing but then produces an error

*2020-07-02, version 1.3*

I successfully logged into Fitbit through this app. And the app immediately started downloading information to Fitbit. After 240 bits of data we’re supposedly downloaded it started sending a different data set (weight) and then gave an error. I don’t see any data synced.

### 2/5 — Won’t sync

*2020-06-07, version 1.3*

It looks like it would be great but the activity won’t sync. The Apple app shows that this app has not requested access.   Oh well.

### 1/5 — Updates?

*2020-05-28, version 1.3*

Is this app still supported? I just downloaded these input and output apps and when I click on the login in button, it tells me there’s an internal error.

### 1/5 — Not a single review says it works

*2020-05-26, version 1.3*

Read every review, even the ones with 5 stars. Either they haven’t tried it yet or they apparently didn’t know you don’t give more stars for a bad review. Not a single review says it has worked at all since over a year ago. Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — Bummer

*2020-04-17, version 1.3*

This did not work and no info was synced.

### 1/5 — Bad practice!!

*2020-01-27, version 1.3*

Requires Fitbit profile information to be synced to allow any sync. 
Privacy fail!!!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t sync Steps?!

*2019-12-29, version 1.3*

If this syncs Steps, I couldn’t figure out how to do it.

It syncs other types of data though.

### 5/5 — Strong tool

*2022-08-13, version 1.3*

This appt does a great job keeping my activities recorded in support of my heart-health. I’m looking for the same features of those $700 the kids walk around with playing games on. So Next Time You Need Value Check This Gem!

### 5/5 — Very easy to sync Apple watch data to Fitbit app!!!

*2021-01-23, version 1.3*

The fitbit app has the best sleep analyzer, and I couldn't find a way to switch to my new Apple watch without missing it. I have been wearing both the Apple watch and my Fitbit, so as to have the best features of each. Hopefully, with this app showing me to transfer data from the Apple health app to my Fitbit app, I'll be able to put aside my old Fitbit device and just use my Apple watch for everything. Fingers crossed!

### 5/5 — simple yet powerful

*2019-10-24, version 1.3*

i just installed and looks good and legitimate. Hope they wont compromise personal health data.

### 5/5 — It works!!

*2019-03-07, version 1.1*

So excited to see this work. Especially since it’s free! I use Apple Watch, but track my weight and food in the Fitbit app. Very pleased to find something that integrates so well.

### 5/5 — Neyr88

*2018-12-18, version 1.0*

It actually keeps blinking and doesn't seem to work for me

### 5/5 — Not syncing

*2018-10-11, version 1.0*

Just downloaded yesterday & I’m getting an unexpected error has occured😡

### 3/5 — Really

*2022-11-30, version 1.3*

The app always brings always all the way back to Re enter and was a challenge to get into, but once I allowed apple to sync, then it was like a restricted screen with no access back to the Fitbit app. Exit and then went to Fitbit for the details to see if it was shared.

### 3/5 — Set up

*2021-04-19, version 1.3*

Super hard to setup.

### 3/5 — Always pop up requesting for voting star when opening app

*2020-10-21, version 1.3*

Should not ask for voting anytime opening app

### 3/5 — Please update the app.

*2018-12-13, version 1.0*

This app used to work flawlessly and seamlessly. But a recent update must have a serious bug.  Now the screen just flashes green erratically. Hope this app can be fixed soon.
