Fitbit says not working on iOS 8 Health integration


Via 9 to 5 Mac:

We do not currently have plans to integrate with HealthKit... It is an interesting new platform and we will watch as it matures, looking for opportunities to improve the Fitbit experience. At the moment, we're working on other exciting projects that we think will be valuable to users.

This is curious, but doesn't really surprise me. I think the Fitbit app is very nice and I like how it's open to two way data sharing with third parties. I'm not sure yet how Health fits into things for me. I'm not that interested in a central one stop shop right now. To me, Health is solving a problem I don't have, however, I'm sure new opportunities will come to light.

While I do hope Fitbit jumps on board, if they're working on other projects right now I can see them not being in a big hurry to throw resources at iOS 8 Health.
