Fitbit Aria 2 weight Scale and Withings scale not syncing

There is a workaround higher up in the thread.

Thank you. I am aware but the workaround requires creating an additional 3rd party account. I was asking for a fix, not a workaround these are two very different things…

This is super crazy - that this Withings link is still broken.

it’s only been 18 months since it was broken by a Zwift update to introduce kids weights :rofl:

Crazy but this is the norm with Zwift bugs/development/communication. They would be better to remove the withings connection as an option under your zwift profile and just tell us it’s not supported rather than leaving a feature broken for 18 months which they are not working to fix.

Fully agree. Using 3rd party service is not a solution it’s kinda cheating. Moreover if the syncing worked before…

Rejoined Zwift after some months. Cant believe this is still a known bug with all the new regulations/restrictions to weight cheating in races. The ā€žconnectionā€œ is still available to establish a sync with Withings - with no functuonality.

Lets see what will comes first - rowing, customizable UI or syncing your weight…

Just another +1 of someone who wishes that they’d fixed the Withings connection a long time ago!

I was just idly wondering when this had been fixed, and it looks like the answer is still Zoon.

Many people are using Withings → Fitbit → Zwift sync as a workaround for this issue. Unfortunately Withings → Fitbit sync is also broken now. Fitbit reports to be working on solving it…

@shooj Any update on when the Withings issue might be fixed? It’s been nearly two years since this ticket was created. I know it’s not a critical bug, but surely something like this is more important than the Watopia Whales ā€œremaining in the best timelineā€ from the last update.

Wonder if it is not broken for everyone, it ā€œseemsā€ like mine has been updating (last update that Zwift pulled from my withings scale via the Fitbit hack was 3 days ago). Not sure if Zwift should be picking this up every day, but it is at least working some of the time.

Hi @SeattleSauve

Try to unlink and relinking your withings to fitbit see this link.

It updated 3 days ago… when it’s actually working properly does it update each time you launch Zwift, or does Zwift only check every couple of days? If it’s supposed to update every day I’ll try unlink/relinking.

Mine update every time.

For me fitbit-sync broke a few weeks back, and this simple un/relink fixed it

The direct sync from withings to zwift is broken since over a year. I used the fitbit workaround described on zwift insider (search for ā€žwithings fitbit hackā€œ) but by end of January also the fitbit weight sync stopped working.

Is there any hope that the withings sync is ever repaired? (If not it might be wise to remove it from the connection page altogether)

Is there another known hack how to sync from withings to zwift?

I’m an optimist. It’s going to be fixed by Easter.
