I have been so miserable since they took my Fitbit app away. The Google Health app is complete garbage. The food logging is horrible.

Right now I'm trying to figure out if I can connect my Fitbit Aria scale to the app. You should be able to because Fitbit is owned by Google and is now Google health right? And yet, I can't find any instructions on how to do it. I bought this scale just before Fitbit went away completely, so it's basically brand new and yet, I can't use it the way it's intended.

Google's own help page on connecting scales to the Fitbit app instructs you to open the Fitbit app - they don't talk about the Google Health app at all! They can't even update their own documentation! So bad. https://support.google.com/googlehealth/answer/14236805?hl=en

How do I set up my Fitbit scale?

Set up your Fitbit scale with the Fitbit app for iPhones and iPads or Android phones. For more information, check How do I set up my Fitbit device?

I'm frustrated and annoyed and just hating Google on so many levels right now. They force us into using their garbage apps and don't update the documentation. It's impossible to have any kind of a meaningful conversation with them about anything. If you can even reach someone, all they give you are meaningless platitudes and customer service speak. If you ask three Google reps a question, you will get three different answers, and they will all be wrong.

I'm trying to find out if it is possible to transfer miles from one person to another, but every link I have found has been a dead end. Any link that starts with buymiles.mileageplus.com gets to a "bad gateway" screen. I can't even get info on what might be involved.

Does anyone know if they've stopped allowing us to transfer miles to another account? Is anyone able to reach the website I need? This is the link I've been trying - https://buymiles.mileageplus.com/united/united_landing_page/

Pooling miles will not work for us because we need to fly non stop. The rules say that you can't use pooled miles to buy flights with "money and miles," but there are no flights available for "miles only" that are non-stop. Therefore we can't use pooling for now.
