Change calories burned after exercise is completed

Many times, when I start an exercise my Versa or my Charge 2, it records my calories burned based on steps and heart rate. But many times I feel it gets them incorrect, but you're unable to change the calories for exercises that you started on your fitbit device. You have to delete the old log and add a new manual log to do that. It'd be nice to just be able to edit the calories without having to create a new manual log.

Hi @cm0011, thanks for sharing this suggestion. I think that a lot of users will benefit on having this option to edit Multi-Sport activities. Let's wait and see what others think.

add to that. 

 

flex 2 estimates my calorie burn at 650 cals for 55 minutes; independent hr tracker estimates jut 375. helpline suggests switching to sedentary but is unable to provide calorie adjustment data for my nutrition needs.

Uh, that's the reason I bought the flex2 in the first place! needs an update here.

also -- tried to get help on helpline/mobile access, multiple crashes.

 

also -- no option to key in issue while waiting in line for helpline access -- wastes time. please update this.

 

also -- when I finally DID get through to helpline, no real suggestions as mentioned -- but they suggested i report on the features upgrade forum -- and provided an outdated link. 

 

frustrating and disappointing from a company thait is supposed to be about effiency and accurate tracking!
