I have been having trouble on and off with this feature since last year, I have to repeatedly uninstall the fitbit app to show my true calories burned in the Food section as it's just not updating throughout the day, very frustrating and annoying as it shows I have nothing left to eat that day and I have to work it out manually. I have a Google Pixel Watch 4 on Android

Yes I keep having this issue. Was told a fix was due.... but it's still breaking all the time. 

Note here: https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Android-App/Calories-burned-don-t-match-with-calories-out/td-p/56688...

and here: https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Android-App/Why-does-the-quot-cal-out-quot-feature-in-the-food-diary...

Annoyingly those topics are now locked - although this has NOT been fixed.

@MarioSFitbit @DavidFitbit This has been an issue since at least 2024. Old topics on the same subject have been locked, but it's not been fixed. Can we have an update on whether developers are aware of this issue and trying to fix it?

Since Friday April 3rd, the Calories consumed icon, in the Custom Focus area at top of my main page, shows "0" (zero).  Yet tapping it shows that calories consumed are being sync'd over from MyFitnessPal.

I cleared the caches and did a disconnect of the apps to try to reset the links.  MFP is getting steps from Fitbit and Fitbit is getting Calories from MFP but still the icon shows zero.
