Connecting Fitbit

Connecting Fitbit


Fitbit syncs your activity, sleep, heart rate, and body composition data with your Apotheo check-ins.


How to Connect


  1. Go to your Account page and find the Integrations section (or Settings > Integrations in the Apotheo app)
  2. Under Devices, enable Fitbit
  3. You'll be redirected to Fitbit to authorize access
  4. Log in to your Fitbit account and approve the connection


Once connected, your Fitbit data syncs automatically with your check-ins.


What Data Syncs


  • Steps
  • Total Sleep, Deep Sleep, Light Sleep, REM Sleep
  • Resting Heart Rate, HRV
  • Weight, Body Fat %


Troubleshooting


Nothing is syncing


  • Make sure your Fitbit device is syncing with the Fitbit app — Apotheo reads data from Fitbit's servers, so your device needs to sync first
  • Check that you have data for the dates in your check-in period
  • Try disconnecting and reconnecting Fitbit from your Account page


Data is missing for some days


Fitbit only syncs data that's available on Fitbit's servers. If your device didn't sync for a day, that data won't appear in Apotheo. Make sure your Fitbit device has synced with the Fitbit app.


Things to Know


  • You can only connect one wearable at a time — if you already have another wearable connected, disconnect it first from your Account page
  • You can additionally connect Apple Health to supplement Fitbit data with anything extra available via Apple Health
  • If you also use Fitbit for food logging, see Connecting Fitbit (Nutrition) to sync your nutrition data separately
  • Data syncs for the check-in period — the days between your current and previous check-in
