Include Activity name (Workout/Walk/Run) in the Excel download

I just tried the activity download feature with excel and it is great. However, i am trying to compute how many days in a month did i do crossfit, v/s walk, v/s dancing. I cannot do that right now after Data Export in Excel, since the activity name is dropped when the export happens.

 

Could you please include it ?

Here's a sample report and it doesn't tell me which activity I did on which day 😞 

Fitbit is a great product to track such things, but if i am unable to, then i don't see the value in it. This should be a very simple change, as  you already have the data.

Please show and log a running total of calories burned throughout the day.  I can see it for the current day but would like to compare to previous days

When you download fitbit data from the dashboard, one item you can check is "Activity". When you select this, you get data about the calories used for the activity, the date of the activity, the amount of active minutes for the activity, etc. What you do not get is the name of the Activity itself. This should be the first field you get!!
