Okay,

 

So I was a previous misfit user, but kept losing the thing so now I am trying fitbit.

 

With misfit, I synced mapmyrun to misfit. MapMyRun would send my run information over into misfit and misfit would adjust all of steps. I use MapMyRun so I can see my splits when I run.

 

I would then sync misfit with loseit to get my exercise calories for the day (misfit also sent over sleep information).

 

So, my question is does mapmyrun sync with fitbit or the other way around. I have connected my mapmyrun to fitbit. So, in order to get my steps should I connect my loseit to fitbit or mapmyrun? I don't see any of my mapmyrun data inside of fitbit.

 

I am afraid if I connect mapmyrun and fitbit to my loseit I will have double counted some steps. I have the premimum version of Loseit.

 

Thank you!

@melodynw I don't personally use MapMyRun but it is compatible with Fitbit (https://www.fitbit.com/apps/mapmyrun).  

 

From that link:

It's quick and easy to link your FitBit to your MapMyRun account - simply visit My Workouts > Import Workout.

 

So it looks like info from Fitbit will import into MapMyRun and not the other way round, but I could be wrong.  You can always link the accounts and if it doesn't do what you like you can unlinke them.
