How to get Runkeeper info on Dashboard and MFP

[mjstallworth]

Hi All!

I have a quesiton that may seem silly, but here goes:  I have my Flex synced with MFP for my food and Runkeeper for my jogs/walks.  It works for the most part but I'm a data geek and there is something that is bothering me about the set-up.  The Dashboard shows how many steps I take when I jog or walk and that I've been "active", but not how many miles or register that I've actually exercised.  Likewise, MFP will show that I've earned extra calories from exercise, but doesn't show how many minutes I've exercised or what kind I did.

Is there a way that I can get all that information integrated - that is, have MFP show that I've actually run or walked and have the Dashboard show that I've actually exercised using the time started and duration from Runkeeper?  When I've tried to log manually, it seems like it double counts it - NOT what I want.  

I can live with things the way they are but I'd really like to see it all on my Dashboard.  Is this possible?

Hi @mjstallworth

Moved your post to the Third-Party Integrations section to increase the chance of getting a solution.

Sadly Runkeeper and Fitbit don't play well together. Not a great solution, but the best "automated" option is to sync Runkeeper with MFP (not Fitbit) and MFP with Fitbit. Runkeeper and Fitbit don't directly sync. Once again, not a great solution but it is the best "automated" solution. Ultimately I gave syncing between Fitbit and Runkeeper and now manually enter my Runkeeper tracked data into Fitbit. That doesn't even work 100% because "optional" calories don't record correctly. Good luck.

Thank you so much.  At least I know I'm not just stupid.  I thought for sure I was just missing something.  Well, I guess I will continue with things the way they are.

Thank you!  I didn't realize this area would be a better place.
