I have a similar issue with entering in exercise manually.
I was suspicious of the calorie count being strange, as there had been a few times when I entered my exercise, and my total daily calories burned suddenly dropped to less than what they were before I’d made the entry.
So I ran a little experiment;
Daily calories burned before walk: 1650
Three mile Run-walk for 50 min
Daily calories burned after walk: 2100
Fitbit auto entry for walk: 151
Realized Fitbit only calculated for 15 min
Adjusted time on Fitbit entry for 50 min: 435
Daily calories after adjustment. 2103
Deleted Fitbit entry, and manually entered exercise for the exact same 50 min: 375
Daily calories burned after manual entry: 2073
So, first it gives me 450 calories burned for a 50 minute run-walk, but only 15 min were counted in for 151 cal.
Then after adjusting for proper time, the app says I burned 435 cal, which is 284 more than the 151, but only adds 3 to the daily total.
When I go to the manual entry for the exact same time, it gives me 375 cal, 60 cal less than previous entry, and drops my daily burn by 27.
I feel like I’m being trolled.
