Syncing Fitness Tracker with AARP Now to earn Rewards points

I see that you can sync your fitness tracker to the AARP Now app and earn Rewards points for hitting fitness milestones. However when you drill down to the instructions it says you need v3.20 of the AARP Now app to sync the fitness tracker, yet my Apple App Store only has v3.19. I have AARP support looking into this but wondering if anyone else has been able to find v3.20 and/or sync their fitness tracker (specifically Apple Health on the iPhone).

Open the app/ In the lower right-hand corner there should be an AARP logo/tab. Cilck on that. The resulting page should have your AARP Rewards total. Click on that. Then the resulting page should have a link to sync your Health app.

No.  I've called AARP & Fitbit twice & no concrete answer.  Each say to check with the other.

@vag   Have you tried removing all and then trying again?  Sometimes there can be issues when initially syncing.  Please try this and let me know if it gets resolved.  Thanks!

Attn Terri/AARP:

I 1st contacted you on 9/27/19, as even though my fitbit was synced w/AARP, I wasn't getting any Rewards points for my steps.  At one of your online "chat" reps instructions, I removed AARP approval on my fitbit app & attempted to re-sync, but your website wouldn't let me.  It took countless attempts over about 25 days before I saw my"fitbit" appear on my AARP Rewards page, however, when I check w/fitbit, they don't show AARP has requested authorization to be synced.  I've removed both apps on my phone & re-installed both; I've changed battery in fitbit.  I'm at a loss what to do!

It's been over a month & STILL no points on AARP Rewards for my fitbit steps.I've had 13 days over 10,000 since 10/5/19.  Who can help me????

@vag   We were able to look into this and the error is happening when you leave our site and go to Fitbit pages.  You may want to see if your browser is compatible with Fitbit services.  Let us know what browser and hoping Fitbit can help you.

Yes, I've tried.  I removed AARP Rewards from my fitbit.  Now AARP site won't let me link to fitbit!  When I hit "Sync a tracker", then "fitbit", then click on the red "Log in to fitbit" button on bottom--NOTHING happens.  The screen just sits there.  The red "Log in..." button does NOTHING.

P.S. According to a chat with a fitbit agent, AND www.fitbit.com/partnership......AARP is NOT a partner with them

Apple doesn't seem to be working.  When will it be set up?

I ran into the same issue this morning.  Looking forward to finding out what to do in order to sync my Apple Health app to the AARP Now app.
