How to connect Fitbit to SynthVitals
Fitbit is one of the fastest ways to populate SynthVitals with daily activity, sleep, and heart-rate data. Once connected, Fitbit metrics can be used in dashboards, correlations, experiments, and AI chat prompts.
What syncs from Fitbit
- Steps and activity totals
- Sleep duration and sleep trends
- Heart rate and resting heart rate
- Related recovery and habit analysis inside SynthVitals
How to connect it
- Open the connections area in SynthVitals.
- Choose Fitbit from the available integrations.
- Authorize access in the Fitbit flow.
- Return to SynthVitals and allow the first sync to complete.
If Fitbit is not syncing
- Confirm the Fitbit account you authorized is the one your device is using.
- Open the Fitbit app first so its own data is up to date.
- Give the initial sync a little time if you connected the account moments ago.
- If metrics still look incomplete, reconnect the integration and check the permissions you granted.
What to do next
After sync is active, use your Fitbit data in Fitbit-specific dashboards, compare trends against lab markers, or ask Synthia questions like “Show me my Fitbit sleep trend” or “Does my activity affect recovery?”
