So I just started using Strava for runs (and pushing data to Samsuing Health) and I noticed  that both Fitbit and Strava give me calorie "bonuses" in LoseIt. I think that's doubledipping. Strava is linked to Fitbit and I received the Fitbit bonus in Lose it! as well as the Strava bonus for the same run. I tracked the run in FitBit by starting the exercise on my Ionic. Then Strava also sent the run to Lose it! and gave me a separate bonus. In the Strava entry for the run in LoseIt I am able to toggle a switch that states the run was tracked using Fitbit tracker which I toggle on but am not sire it is eliminating the double count issue.

 

Lil help would be great

This really would be a question for Loose it. 

Fitbit and Staggs do not give you bonuses,  Lose it awards the bonuses based on the data it pulls from Strava and Fitbit.

 

Fitbit has nothing to do with what happens after the data has been turned over to the third party.

I think the only way to not have it double-count is to not have one of them write exercise data to LoseIt. So instead of Strava and FitBit both being linked to LoseIt (and eachother), only have ONE of them linked to LoseIt. I disabled Strava from LoseIt and have it just feed into Fitbit now, which then sends the correct data to LoseIt.
