DigiFit active minutes doubles

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

Basics:  

  • I have a Fitbit Charge.  
  • I use an app called Digifit, which I wear a heart rate monitor to more accurately count my calories burned.
  • I also use MyFitnessPal to log my food diary.  
  • I linked DigiFit to MyFitnessPal, so my calories burned show up in my food diary.
  • I then linked MyFitnessPal with FitBit, so all the information - calories, workout, steps, etc show up in Fit Bit.  

Problem:  

When I go for a walk and use my heart rate monitor with Digifit it doubles my active minutes (remember Digifit goes to MyFitnessPal, then MyFitnessPal goes to FitBit).  It's confusing, but I am wondering if there is a way to correct it from doubling. It only does this for walking.  All other activies - Cardio - Spinning, etc, do not double.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@4trujillos A warm welcome to the Community! Thank you for the details that you've mentioned. You shouldn't be using Digifit to track your walk because then that's why you're getting double active minutes. Your tracker was made to track step based activities, we recommend to log just activities that require more than just steps like tennis or yoga or any other activity that you previously mentioned. 

 

Hope this helps Smiley Happy
