However, this app has incorporated a dark pattern to try to get you to buy their premium version.Ī dark pattern is “an element of manipulative interface designed to trick the user into taking actions that they might not have done freely.” This occurs when you open the app and are met with a “Sync Now” button.

I know you can expect ads with a free version of an app. Until there is better cooperation between this developer and Fitbit, you should know this is not the answer you are looking for to solve your Apple Health data management issue. So long as I grant permission to a 3rd party such as this app developer, then I should be allowed to share that data. How I choose to use my data is my business. Fitbit collects it because I bought their product. If the developers and Fitbit could continue to work out their issues, I believe that this app has great potential. Fitbit has gathered multiple data points but only allows an average to be shared and added to Apple Health data. While it does bring in some data, Fitbit’s own data share policies are more of a hindrance to this app’s potential than the app itself.
The reason I purchased this app, like many others who have tried it, was because I was hoping that this would be the answer to my problem of organizing all of my health data in one place. It has potential but needs better cooperation with Fitbit to work as advertised. I just look at my Fitbit app for my actual health information, so I’m fine, but figured it was technically something the devs might like to know. And I’m not above doing that right now, but it seems to me it would be better if it only added the difference between the Fitbit and phones step counts to be more accurate. The reason I downloaded this in the first place wasn’t because I care about the Health app, it was for a game (Pikmin Bloom) that counts your steps based on the Health app (if you allow it) so I’m not really complaining due to that, because now I look like I’m doing better in the game. It does sync to apple health, but it seems to just add all the Fitbit steps on top of my health steps from my phone, which on my walks means I’m clocking double. I just wanted to bring up a small little thing. I am grateful this app exists while I’m living out the life of my Fitbit (I think I’m giving up on Fitbit after this one tho).
