My flex is not syncing right with the Map My Walk app on my phone. My app states I walked over 3,000 steps when I used it to track my walk. My FitBit only has about 2500 steps on the dashboard. Has anyone else had this problem?

@Tmaricle It's great to have you here! The reason why there's a discrepancy in the steps it's because MapMyWalk will track your data based on the sensors in your phone and the GPS data that it has. While Fitbit will track your steps using your personal data that you used when you created your profile.
