MyFitnessPal not syncing with Apple Health app

My Fitness Pal had an update 5/26/2022. on my phone it no longer syncs with the Health app on my iphone13 pro. My husband also has the same phone and same set up and yet his is syncing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled My Fitness Pal multiple times and made sure I allowed all data and made sure privacy settings were correct and followed all the steps listed here and at My Fitness Pal which are essentially the same steps. Also rebooted the phone and have the most up to date iOS 15.5. Nothing is working. Can anyone help.

I had this issue it sort of resolved and now only records steps again. Complained over and over to MFP and in the end I downloaded another app that doesn’t have this issue called lose it. It’s not as good as mfp but I’m not paying for a an app that doesn’t work. So every so often I come back to check if it is still the same and it is. It happened after an apple update. Other apps don’t have the problem of pulling data through apple health.

Megahla, agreed. Five other friends at my gym are having the same problem. It has to be MyFitnessPal

Same problem for me, tried everything still no data! Started in June, I workout regularly so this is a big deal for me not to be able to accurately and automatically track my workouts.

That must have been frustrating. I am having a hard time trying to get MFP read my Apple Watch steps. How do you force MFP to read Apple Watch steps? I was hoping you would know that answer.

Thanks

Hello, I’m trying to get my calories to register from my watch to my iPhone, but I don’t understand where the “newsfeed” thing is at. Can you please walk me through it. Thank you
