Fitbit Aria scale and Garmin Connect

Former Member
Former Member
Has anyone figured out a way to sync them? I see an old post from last year, but haven't found anything recent.

I've tried just about everything.
I've connected to Strava.
I've connected to fitsync.com - tried resyncing like it says on their site and still got nothing.
I've connected to myfitnesspal.com
I have several other misc. apps that I've connected and still get nothing.

I originally had a Fitbit and my wife still uses Fitbit. I would love it if it synced. I don't really want to drop another $150 on a Garmin scale.

Thanks.

    I still use my Fitbit scale since like you I used Fitbit before I switched to Garmin. Mine syncs just fine through Myfitnesspal. The Aria sends weight to MFP and Garmin picks up that information when it syncs. However, it only syncs weight. Body fat % does not get transferred to either MFP or Garmin, but that data is available in Fitbit if I want to see it.

    Mine is linked to Myfitnesspal and it has never updated. Is there anything specific that you did?

    I don't think I did anything special. I originally had my Fitbit syncing to MFP as my step source and as part of that it would sync my weight from my Aria. When I got my Fenix 3 I left the Fitbit sync as it was but also set up Garmin sync and changed the step source in MFP to Garmin. After that, aside form a few occasional bugs my weight has synced from Fitbit to MFP and then on to Garmin. It actually kind of works in reverse to, since my Garmin workouts sync to MFP they also get synced to Fitbit, though I don't really use the Fitbit account for much anymore since step count won't sync between the two.

    I un-synced it then re-synced and it seems to have updated. Hopefully it will keep updating. Thanks!
