I found this comment on a Google Play app called 'Health Sync: Reading the reviews on the Galaxy App Store it looks like multiple other people are having this issue since the last update.Įdit: A workaround has been identified that seems to be working! Credit to the wrote:įind this workaround while browsing the MyFitnessPal forums which seems to be working. I am now at the end of the road, I think it could be the latest update causing issue, which was 2 days ago (For Samsung Health). It seems as though the actual permissions have been broken with the last update.

In the Apps Connected area of MyFitnessPal, it now just says 'connect' under Samsung Health, I click on it, it opens a little menu with 1 item of data 'all permissions'. In the settings for Samsung Health, it no longer offers me the options for allowing read/write access for each data item, it just has 1 toggle 'all permissions'. I did like the way the app memorized my earlier food choices and portions so that listing foods became easier with use.As of today I noticed that my steps from my Galaxy Watch Active, recording in Samsung Health, were not being synced to MyFitnessPal. I did find I could go on the Internet and find more detailed listings for calories burned by various exercises, especially those that might be a little out of the ordinary. Of course, then I ate more than I thought and gained back some of what I lost. I got discouraged and quit using the app.

After a few months my weight plateaued, no matter what I did. If I wanted to lose 1 pound a week I had to tell it I wanted to lose 2 or more pounds per week, even though I believe I was being accurate with the listing of my food consumption. I used Lose It! on my iPhone for several months.
