Updated

You can connect MyFitnessPal with FITIV Pulse to sync your nutrition and activity data. On iOS, the connection works through Apple Health. On Android, it works through Google Fit. This guide shows how to connect both apps on each platform.

How Does MyFitnessPal Connect to FITIV?

MyFitnessPal does not connect directly to FITIV Pulse.

Instead, both apps sync through a health platform:

  • iOS → Apple Health

  • Android → Google Fit

These platforms act as a bridge to share data between apps.

  2. Tap the profile icon in the top-right corner.
  3. Scroll down, select Apps & Services, then find FITIV Pulse.
  4. Ensure all permissions are enabled for FITIV Pulse to read and write data to Apple Health.
