Wrong calorie count..

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

I want to know why my watch (fitbit Ionic) tracks calories when I'm not even wearing the watch at night.  I've had the watch for a few days now and notice that the calorie count is over stated every morning. How can we address this issue? Oh! it's not the wait until tomorrow resolution. I tested the watch by not wearing it to see what it would do. Step counts and heart beats are good. But calorie count is not correct.

It may be that the calorie count is ok. As well as tracking calories you burn through activity, your fitbit also tracks your BMR calories. These are the calories you burn just keeping your body alive  (even when asleep). They are calculated from your profile settings so you needn't be wearing your fitbit to get them. What you are seeing in the morning is the total BMR calories burned since the midnight reset.

There is another forum where your problem is more likely to be solved. It's the Fitbit Ionic product help forum.
