Fitbit with MSN Health and Fitness

[Sander Schot]

I would like to get a Fitbit Flex, but the official Fitbit app does not support my language. MSN Health and Fitness does. My question is, can I use the FItbit Flex as a stepcounter in MSN health and Fitness?
Thank you for your help.

I have not been able to find how to get Fitbit to sync with Health and Fitness. Fitbit does sync with HealthVault. However, Microsoft has uncoupled their Health and Fitness app from HealthVault and it no longer syncs it's data to HealthVault. So as far as I can figure, Health and Fitness is off on it's own now and only provides info to MS's new Health service. This seems to be typical MS activity switching their services and not making sure all the pieces fit well together before moving forward. I quit using Health and Fitness and use a service that syncs with HealtVault, such as Runtastic, until I can figure out how the new Health service works with HealthVault, were I have all my data at the moment. It's quite frustrating trying to keep up with them when you think you have it all figured out.

Why not wait for the Microsoft Fitness Band?

Probably not in the USA

Exactly. I live in The Netherlands, and it doesn't seem like the band will come here anytime soon.
