Integration with Fitbit #165

Closed sgilroy closed 4 years ago

sgilroy commented 4 years ago

Similar to #141, an integration with Fitbit could allow commute activities (walk, run, and bicycle) to be synced with Tomorrow automatically.

martincollignon commented 4 years ago

That'd be great. Hopefully walking and running should have a carbon emission of 0 (unless you have an exoskeleton ;) ), which means they would not appear on the bubbles, but could appear in the history.

sgilroy commented 4 years ago

@martincollignon Is there a way to get a look at the Tomorrow app so that I can better understand the experience you are creating? Or do you at least have screenshots or videos I can look at? I signed up for the beta at https://www.tmrow.com/

martincollignon commented 4 years ago

Can you send me your email on martin.collignon@tmrow.com ? I'll send an alpha invite your way.

ONeill45 commented 4 years ago

I'd like to contribute to this if hands are needed

sgilroy commented 4 years ago

@ONeill45 I haven't started any work on this, but I'll update here if/when I do. Feel free to jump on this independently!

ONeill45 commented 4 years ago

@sgilroy I'll start doing some more research on the Fitbit API and let you know if I get any work done on this. @martincollignon could I also get an alpha invite if I send you my email?

martincollignon commented 4 years ago

Hey both, any progress?

ONeill45 commented 4 years ago

@martincollignon Sorry I have been travelling for the last month. I'm back now and will jump back on this this week.

martincollignon commented 4 years ago

Hi @ONeill45, have you gotten closer? Is there an API available?

sorensvejstrup commented 4 years ago

Is this helpful: https://dev.fitbit.com/build/reference/ ?

tyleralves commented 4 years ago

Is the goal here to convert walking into CO2eq? It seems like it would be almost negligible compared to other activities. Maybe the data would be useful if people are looking to track when they replace high impact activities with low impact activities in the future?

corradio commented 4 years ago

Could be interesting though if Fitbit can detect car rides and/or biking?
