So I decided to go ahead and try to set up a step counter on my phone (Samsung S5). I have the MyFitnessPal app up and running, but I'm not real clear on what step counter app I need to get, how to integrate that app's data into MyFitnessPal, and finally how to have that data logging to this group. Anyone have any experience getting this mess set up?

    MFP has an Apps section where you can pick a pedometer app or a tracker app to integrate. It will add up your calories burned and add that to your diary.

    Otherwise in the Exercise Diary you can manually add in your walk/run in minutes and MFP will calculate your calories from there.

    There is no place to add in steps. So right now in the notes section of the Exercise Diary I am adding my daily steps counted.
