Still Awesome!!! - UPDATED March 22 2016 – Tactio HEALTH Review

This app is great. I've been tracking my weight with it for over a year and have no complaints. Definitely worth the buy! **** UPDATED MARCH 22 2016 **** Noticed that the app was not syncing in my fitbit data. Contacted support (through the app) and they very quickly got back with me with how to resolve the issue (log out of fitbit and log back in from within the app). This wouldn’t pull in the old data, it would only start tracking data starting from that point, which was initially disappointing. I looked around on the App Store for a replacement to Tactio for about an hour and couldn’t find anything else that compared. This prompted me to dig further into how to get my fitbit data into health kit itself to see if maybe I could just fix the problem once and for all and continue using Tactio (which, up until this happened I was 100% satisfied with for the last 3 years). I found a solution! I downloaded an app called “Data Manager for Fitbit” ($0.99). Once I downloaded that, it imported all of my Fitbit data into HealthKit —But then I had duplicate steps! So, what I did next was delete all of my step data as gathered by my phone out of HealthKit (Open HealthKit, click on the “Dashboard” tab at the bottom, click on the big orange “Steps” panel (which will be showing duplicate data), click “Share Data” and then scroll down. Click on “[your name]’s iPhone [version]”. Click “edit” and then you can either meticulously select each day all the way back to the day you started tracking with your fitbit, or, you can just click “Delete All” (top left). You’ll also need to go into the “Settings” app select “Privacy” > “Motion & Fitness” and turn _off_ “Fitness Tracking” (so it doesn’t keep tracking steps). Next I went back into the Tactio app and disconnected my Fitbit account from my Tactio Health App and just had it pull the data in from HealthKit only. Voila! All my Fitbit data is now synced into HealthKit which is synced into Tactio, which is even better than having it only in Fitbit and Tactio, because now it is tracked the same everywhere with one source of “truth” (tracked by Fitbit, stored and distributed/made available through HealthKit)
