Just upgraded to the Charge 3 from the HR. Step count seems higher than it should be, I have already added my stride length and played with that too. No calculations are done when I am on a stationary device, (bike, step climber).
My workouts are not very long, but in order to keep track I have begun taking pics of the workout summary screen and loading into my RunKeeper account. This feels like it is defeating the purpose of having upgraded. A major bonus for the purchase was the ability to have multiple activities tracked.
Could I be missing something?

A warm welcome to the Community @erintony.
I just wanted to let you know that I have moved your post from the Charge 3 board to the Third-Party Integrations board, since I think that here you will be able to see more related topics about other apps.
Now about your issue, if your Fitbit account isn't syncing with your RunKeeper account, I recommend revoking access by doing the following:
After revoking the access, pair these accounts again by doing the following:
About the step count issue, for tips about improving accuracy, I recommend checking the help article How accurate are Fitbit devices?. Factors such as device placement, dominant or non-dominant hand, and stride length affect the number of steps recorded.
If it still seems like your device is undercounting or overcounting steps, try the following:
1. Put your device on your wrist.
2. Walk 100 steps, making sure to count a step each time one of your feet hits the ground.
3. Pause, then check your device to see your step count.
Let me know the outcome. 😊

Those steps did not work for my Charge 2. I can't get my hear rate data to transfer.
