Step adjustment & exercise

Hi All,

So I've got the App set to import the steps taken from my iPhone, which it then uses to adjust my daily goal and that seems to be working just fine.

I do have a couple of questions though - what happens when I go for a run? do I just leave it to it and not log the run as it'll count my steps? I'd rather use HRM data for exercise where I can.

Thanks.

    You need to leave the iphone at home or switch off the step tracker whilst doing the run with your HRM or you will double count. Cheers
