Data exchange with My Fitness Pal

Garman connect has not gotten calorie consumed data from My Fitness Pal for 4 day. MFP has not gotten any activity data in that same time. Anyone else seeing similar issues?

I had a similar problem last month, but it only lasted about 36 hours.

    Same problema here. Very annoying indeed.

    Thanks IMDEDICATED. Though the MFP post you reference indicates that they're working on a fix for activity syncing and says calorie syncing works fine. I received a 920 over the holiday and the sync has not worked for activity OR calorie counts, even once. I've tried removing and reconnecting the connection almost a dozen times. It is super frustrating. Has anyone heard from Garmin or MFP on a solution and timeline?

    Latest response from MFP

    Our sincere apologies for any problems you have been experiencing with the Garmin Integration. Unfortunately, there is a problem with Garmin integrations and at this time and you may see part of the sync work, but not everything. We are doing our best to work with Garmin to try to get all issues resolved as quickly as possible. In light of the holidays, the fix is taking a bit longer than we anticipated. We will post updates to the issue via the following link: https://myfitnesspal.desk.com/customer/portal/articles/1804316-not-seeing-garmin-exercise-adjustment-since-12-18-updated-12-23-

    We are truly sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work with Garmin to get this corrected. While we continue to work on the issue, some members have reported having success with tricking the connection by going to the Garmin connect Dashboard, then to the calories in/out tile, then click settings, Disconnect from MyFitnessPal, then click settings again and connect back to MyFitnessPal. We are not sure if this will work for everyone, but it is something you may want to try until a fix is in place. Again our apologies, we hope the fix will be available soon.

    Getting Worse - Garmin please comment

    Got a vivofit it in post x-Mas sales. Quickly discovered connection issues re MFP on iPad & windows desktop.

    Till today by syncing via desktop have been able to get calories to GCD & limited exercise back to MFP

    Late yesterday & Today = Zip communication

    Even disconnected MFP from GCD & reconnected to no avail

    Also noticed report panel not showing updated step count as well
    Report summary shows 6338 vs actual of 9770 see image

    Step report for today shows NO steps yet step count is 11306 (as @ 10:24PM)
