I didn’t have to go through all the third party app hoops. My apple works just fine and setup was intuitive and just the click of a button or two, along with making sure my activity level within MFP was appropriate. There seems to be some kind of disconnect. The above work around maybe worthwhile only for people for who things are still not working properly **Since I've noticed less of these cannot connect to Apple posts there is a chance that newer apples are working better.

Set up automatic synchronization of the intermediary app with mfp. Not having an Apple watch and no longer logging on MFP, I will continue using Fitbit which by the way works most of the time with MFP : lol: Past research by heybales indicates that the Pacer app does that. MFP expects a time stamped TDEE expenditure to the point of time stamp, and the final one at midnight Sign on off scrub repeat till each is verified to be home aloneĬonnect apple to intermediary app that can concatenate the info received from Apple into a single whole day TDEE figure and send that tdee figure to mfp There’s zero credit for any other iOS calorie adjustment, including the mile and a half I walked to the studio/bike path and back home through the farmers market.Īnd of course, you have to have given your watch/phone permission to sync with MFP.ĭisconnect MFP from Apple and Apple from MFP. I started with half an hour on a recumbent bike, ran 1.5 miles (I record itas a walk because I’m so darned slow), did a hot mat class, ran another 1.5 exact same route, and then did a second hot class. This is what my Apple exercises look like on MFP today. MFP doesn’t record any credit from calories burned via Apple Watch unless it’s an exercise your specifically started and ended, in which case it should apply your additional calories. If you don’t feel like you’re getting enough “credit” for movement, you need to adjust your activity level. MFP is correct in not adding calories from your move circle. This already takes into account your typical daily movement, outside of exercise. In MFP you chose an activity level, which in turn helps set your daily calorie allotment.
