Unable to disconnect myfitnesspal

I want to disconnect my garmin with myfitnesspal, but when I click the "Disconnect MyFitnessPal" button on privacy page, it doesn't work at all.
Who can tell me how to disconnect with myfitnesspal?

    Update: After MFP added my run that I manually entered 8 times to GC and then gave me over 4000 exercise calories I got fed up and figured it out. This is a great feature and I would use it, if it worked. However, the exercise sync doesn't happen in a timely manner. It took almost 12 hours to sync and then it synced from MFP to GC 8 times and from GC to MFP with bad info. My ego didn't like that it made my easy run into a joke by adding several minutes to each mile in the description.

    The fix is to go to the web. On the MFP website click on apps and then disconnect the GC app, for me it showed on the right side. Then, go to the GC website and the health tab (new version). Click on the gear for the calories and select disconnect From MFP and yes when you have to confirm.

    Upon doing both of these, I no longer see the connection between the 2 apps in the GC app privacy setting. Yeah! BTW, Deleting GCM and reinstalling made no difference, so don't bother trying that as a shortcut.

    I'm having the same problem. It says disconnect, I select opt out and then nothing.

    I want to disconnect because the exercise calories from my FR are not going from GC to MFP. I enter them manually into MFP and then they go automatically to GC. The end result is double entries in GC.

    What's the new process to disconnect these apps?

    (I'm using the iOS latest versions of everything.)

    You have to disconnect via the websites for both. If you look at my post history I have instructions in another thread for how to do it.
