That would also be my wish, since I own a Vivoactive 3. At the moment I enter the weight manually. That can be quite annoying.

Do you want athletes to purchase your product? Sync Garmin data.

I think for now, only Withings activity trackers can be installed to Health Mate. I've tried it before with my Xiaomi Mi band 2 and it didn't work.

I've got a Vivoactive 3 Music. Would love it if it synced with my Withings wireless scale.

It's a shame that fitness companies haven't embraced open connectivity yet.

I have the withings smartscale and the BPM+ ... and the smartwatch from GARMIN Fenix 5 plus ... I would greatly appreciate, that these devices work together - I am convinced that the incompatibility is of no advantage of either side ... more: it will be a loss ... if you would open your connectivity you will win ...

Yes, please connect my Garmin to the scale. It is connected to myfitness pal. ??

YMMV but I use MyFitnessPal to act as a bridge for weight to Garmin Connect, works ok just connect Withings to MFP and GC to MFP...transfers the weight across on sync.

I was wondering whether connection between Garmin and Withings is a European/US data processing issue?
Was creating a myfitness Pal account and noticed you have to accept that your data I shipped to the US. This is quite sensitive since data protection laws are not as strict there.
In any case syncing between apps/devices would be great but I was just wondering about this.

I like the withings products like the scale. I also want the sleep tracker and the blood pressure monitor. I would definitely buy more products if you allowed me to sync my garmin activity like steps data to health mate.

I just got the sleep mat and the blood pressure cuff. Now if I could only get my steps in there. Right now I just get some of them when I have my phone. I don't run with my phone so it's a terrible tracking mechanism. Would be great if I could sync steps from garmin to withings. It already goes to mfp. Mfp goes to withings. It shouldn't be that hard?!

Please link Garmin and Withings for steps.
I use my watch for treadmill running and would love to have all my Health info in one place.

Garmin used to be able to sync withings scale reading. Now it doesn’t work. Any suggestions?

How did you have it syncing? The only ways I've seen it work are link Withings to MyFitnessPal and link Garmin to MyFitnessPal. Maybe you need to disconnect and reconnect?
I did it slightly different which required some code and a virtual machine. I setup jaroslawhartman/withings-garmin-v2 and have that sync my scale to garmin and then garmin to myftinesspal. . That allows me to get the body metrics (not just weight) into garmin. I don't have myfitnesspal connected to withings because that would overrule and only sync weight and not body metrics. It took a little work and I just have it scheduled to sync hourly between 8am-12pm which is the typical time I'd weigh myself through the week or weekend. If I weigh myself after that time, I can login to my VM and kick off a manual sync.

Thanks, danielsfrazier I will try that and see if it works.

Assume no luck on the syncing?

One thing I don’t I understand: Garmin Connect syncs steps to Apple Health and Health Mate is able to read steps from Apple Health. We is that steps are not displayed in the Health Mate app?

Seems that there still is no straight forwad way to sync my weight to Garmin Connect! Incredible after so many years that this is not solved and/or Withings providing a working work-around! They actually "lie" in the presentation, stating "Connect with 100+ Apps".... I have been a Garmin user and Withing user for many years now, and this is the most annoying "glitch". Do I have to ditch my excellent Withings scal for Garmins own?
