Fitbit's popular fitness trackers will not integrate with Apple's HealthKit or the iOS platform anytime in the near future, according to a comment on the company's website.
"We do not currently have plans to integrate with HealthKit," according to the company. "It is an interesting new platform and we will watch as it matures, looking for opportunities to improve the Fitbit experience. At the moment, we're working on other exciting projects that we think will be valuable to users."
According to NPD Group, in 2013 about two-thirds of all fitness trackers sold in the U.S. were Fitbits. The devices were also mentioned by name during Apple's original introduction of the HealthKit platform in June, according to Mashable.
