Google Fit to Fitbit?

Open Redth opened this issue 8 years ago • 9 comments

How about syncing the other way? I'd like to add my google fit data to my Fitbit account...

@Redth Unfortunately Fitbit doesn't support writing steps or heart rate data.

@praveendath92 has this perhaps changed since you last looked? https://dev.fitbit.com/docs/activity/#activity-logging

Not seeing a way to create an entry for heart rate still but perhaps omitting that is OK.

I think that only supports manually logging activities and distance but not steps. To be honest, I have tried it though.

@Redth , I just came across this so, I suppose it is possible to sync steps.

Yep I do believe it's possible. Fitbit doesn't quite count API steps as regular steps (eg: they won't count towards challenges), but it would still be useful.

@Redth , Noted. I will update you here if I create something for the reverse sync - mostly in a different repo.

Thanks :)

Hi @praveendath92, i'm also very interested in syncing information (especially weight, but also activities) from google fit to fitbit, have you made any progress with this?

@Melantrix Sorry, a reverse sync is not in the plan for now.
