How does Fitbit syncing work?
Your Fitbit device does not sync directly with Big Team Challenge. Instead, your activity is first synced to Fitbit then sent to Big Team Challenge. The process is as follows:
- Your activity is tracked by your physical Fitbit device.
- You sync your Fitbit device to Fitbit either via your phone's bluetooth connection or by connecting your Fitbit device to your computer.
- Fitbit sends Big Team Challenge a notification about your new activity.
- Big Team Challenge processes this activity and updates your step count accordingly.
