sync apple watch with fitbit friends?

Changed over from the "dark side" and traded my Fitbit for an Apple Watch Series 2. My question, is there a way that I can still sync with my Fitbit friends??

Hi


Fitbit does not support Apple Watch.


Whilst some third-party apps enable data to be synced from the Health app to Fitbit, Fitbit does not allow steps from third-party apps to be counted towards Fitbit challenges.


For example: Sync Solver - Health to Fitbit


Similarly, Apple Watch supports Activity Sharing with other Apple Watch users, but not with users of other fitness tracking devices:


Share your Activity with your Apple Watch - Apple Support


You may find the following third-party app of interest for challenging your friends:


activity.club

  • "Challenge your friends! You can directly challenge friends in activities such as step tracking and runs to bicycle distance challenges and more."
  • "AC supports Apple Watch, Fitbit, Jawbone, Garmin, Misfit, Withings, Microsoft Band, Under Armour and more as well as fitness applications such as Apple Health App, Runkeeper, Strava and Google Fit."
