Don't know what is going on with the app.  I have had my FB for about a year & today I had to log into the app (I never had to log in after the first day). The app is totally different & reflects "0 steps for today" & says my FB hasn't been synced in a week - - - both total inaccuracies!

If you mean 1310 calories rather than steps, I will believe you, and can explain it.

Those are you BMR (basal metabolic rate) calories you are always burning just by being alive.  They are credited even when not wearing the tracker, and they are filled in for history, too.  There's nothing to do about that.

See How does Fitbit estimate how many calories I've burned?

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
