    Fitbit may have opted not to share its fitness-related data with Apple's Health app, but that isn't stopping other developers from crafting an app that'll do the data transfer for you. Introduced earlier this week is Sync Solver, a lightweight app that will export your fitness data from the Fitbit app and import it into Apple's Health app using the APIs made available by both Fitbit and Apple. The 99-cent app allows you to sync a variety of parameters including active calories, resting calories, dietary calories, body fat percentage, body mass index, stairs climbed, sleep analysis, walking and running distances, weight, and steps taken. Because of API limitations, the data is only synced once a day and not on a continual basis. Once you initiate that first transfer of data between the two apps, the app will automatically sync on a daily basis without any further intervention. Sync Solver is available from the iOS App Store for US$0.99.
