How to Connect Fitbit to Cadoo: Setup Guide

Connect Your Fitbit to Cadoo

Fitbit works with Cadoo to track your running, cycling, swimming, walking, and sleep games. Once connected, your workout data syncs automatically and counts toward your active fitness games. Fitbit works great for workout-based games like running, cycling, and swimming. Daily step tracking through Fitbit is no longer available on Cadoo as of October 2024 due to API changes.
