Fitbit + Practice Better

Clients can sync their Fitbit Accounts to help you better understand activity and sleep habits.

What is Fitbit?

Fitbit is a wearable device and app that tracks activity, exercise, and sleep. Once you enable Activity or Sleep entries on a client's journal, they can link their own Fitbit account from Practice Better, and their data syncs automatically into their Lifestyle Journal. Fitbit doesn't track food, so nutrition data isn't part of this sync.
