Exercises trakcing at my fitnesspall vs. Steps counted by fitbit app

Hi everyone!

 

Yesterday i synced my fitbit flex with the fitnesspall app, and i have question for you all.

 

The Fitbit app counts all your steps and its calories burned during the day, right?

 

If i add at my fitness pall app an exercise that i did at the gym, let's say 45min indoor running, my fitness pall app will count all steps i did from the fitbit app plus the 45min indoor running.

If i add at my fitness pal my indoor running, won't i be counting twice those same steps?

 

Ps.: I am using my fitness pall to add all my daily food intake.

 

Regards,

 

Sergio

Hi, @sergiojrdf! If you add an activity through MFP, it will overwrite your Fitbit activity, so you won't double count the calories. I'll be honest, I'm not 100% sure if it adjusts your steps, too, but you're definitely okay doing it.
