How to enter activity level?

How do I change my activity level in the app? I can't seem to find any setting that has it. I only see the ability to change weight and body fat %. It is calculating WAY too many calories burned and i think it is measuring it based on activity level. It shows I burned 500 calories from 30 minutes of weight lifting which is definitely wrong.

Hello @aleezabee and welcome to the Community.  Fitbit estimates calorie burn with heart rate based algorithms, not activity based ones.  There is no activity level setting in the app.  I agree that 500 calories is high, but I don't have any troubleshooting advice for you.

I also moved your post to the Get Moving forum.  I think it is a better fit for your question.  I'm not sure how your post wound up in the Premium forum, but this isn't a Premium issue.

Take a look at the Fitbit help site for further assistance and information.
