Myfitnesspal not tracking steps apple watch. I recently bought an apple watch series 3 to track my exercise steps and so on and i m trying to get it to work properly with myfitnesspal but something has gone astray. The whole apple watch integration issue comes up again and again. For a long time i ve been using myfitnesspal on my iphone as a diet calorie tracker. For the time being i am still logging my exercise and crossing my fingers hoping this is fixed soon.
