The Fitbit app confuses, why does it say two different cals left to eat? (screenshots attached)

Sorry, if there is a better forum to post this question.

 

However, I find this really confusing, and wondering if someone can explain this.

 

I am using the Android Fitbit app.

 

On the dashboard, it says; 1785 cals in, 625 cals left:

But when I click into it, it says: 1785 cals in, 2839 cals out, 244 cals left in your budget

I do have a food plan with a deficit, but is this correct that outside and inside shows two different "cals left to eat" values?

Hi @cm100 - great question, wish I had an answer.  It appears to be an application error.  I would re-post to the Android Forum (correction per @waveform ).  I'm sure Fitbit would like to know of the error, and they are unlikely to discover it from your post in this forum.

 

In the interim, you could also consult the Dashboard in your PC browser.  That way, you'll have now 3 answers!

He's using the Android App not IOS. And yes you get a third data point from a PC

@waveform - thanks, corrected the Android reference.

 

Three data points, perfect.  I figure you can average those together to get approximately the wrong answer.
