FITIV Pulse accuracy?

Does anyone use FITIV Pulse to keep track of calories burned during workouts? I used to use a polar heart rate monitor but since getting an Apple watch I've been using the FITIV. I've noticed a big difference in calories burned from doing the exact same workout I did in the past with my Polar.

    I have notice the same thing. The heart rate is right on between both of them. Polar Beat calorie calculation comes out much less than FITIV. I have tried several other applications and their calorie calculations match FITIV. (Wahoo)

    It’s to do with the fact Apple Watch shows calories burned total and the total just by the exercise. The apps only show the total
