How do I connect my Fitbit to StepsApp?

StepsApp works seamlessly with your Fitbit fitness trackers and smart watches by syncing step data through the Apple Health app on your iPhone. As long as your device can sync steps to Apple Health, StepsApp can read and display your activity.

To enable this connection, simply use our companion app, Fitbit Sync, which handles the transfer of your Fitbit data to Apple Health. Once synced, StepsApp can automatically read and display your steps. It’s quick to set up and runs seamlessly in the background!

ℹMore About the Fitbit Sync App

Fitbit Sync Free Version

If you’d like a more complete picture of your activity, you can start a 7-day free trial of the PRO version. In addition to steps, Fitbit Sync PRO also syncs distance, workouts, sleep analysis, flights climbed, water intake, active energy, and more. With Auto Sync enabled, your Fitbit data will update automatically in Apple Health — no manual actions needed.
