Fitbit Connect is a free app that allows you to sync your Mac with your Fitbit device. Use the app on its own to track basic activity and runs on your phone, or connect with one of Fitbit’s many activity trackers and the Aria Wi-Fi Smart Scale to get a complete picture of your health, including steps, distance, calories burned, sleep, weight, and more.
Double-click Install Fitbit Connect.pkg. The Fitbit Connect installer opens. Click Continue to move through the installer. After the Fitbit Connect window appears, continue to Part 2. For best results, sync your watch in the Fitbit app, and then disable Bluetooth temporarily on your phone and computer. Plug your watch into the charger. It works for a few days, and the the FitBit icon in the top toolbar goes away, thus not possible to sync. I uninstall the FitBit app, redownload and install, and all works well for a few days, and again the icon goes away. This has repeated 4-5 times. Also, I recall reading once about a dongle from FitBit to use with the Mac OS. @surfingbean1999 @fitbitsupport why is the app not working and my fitbit not syncing? I’m honestly so tired of your awful service. We don’t pay hundreds of dollars just for the aesthetic. If you won’t be a reliable company, then i guess i will be buying an apple watch for christmas this year.
New Fitbit App Not Working
The Fitbit App starts up automatically when you power up your Mac laptop. Annoyingly there’s no option in the app itself to quit the application. So if you don’t want to have the Fitbit App running all of the time then you need an easy way to quit the Fitbit app on a mac.
Create an Automator application file
Use Command + Space to launch the Spotlight Search.
Type ‘Automator’ to launch the Automator App. This tool is designed to allow you to automate tasks.
Mac writing apps 2017. Choose to create a new file of type ‘Application’.
Search for the action type ‘Quit Application’. Drag this into the window on the right for your new script (Where it says ‘Drag actions or files here to build your workflow).
Now under Quit Application section expand the dropdown list and search for ‘Fitbit Connect’.
Fitbit App Not Working Properly
Select Fitbit Connect from the dropdown list to add it to your workflow.
