Hello guys! Me again!

I was considering buying a Fitbit or an Apple Watch.At the moment I have the health app on my Apple phone and somebody kindly showed me how to put this into MFP to trace steps :)
I was wondering if anyone has any good suggestions on how I could track calories burned during exercise or is this not a thing?
Do the fit bits or watches do this?
So basically I do a bit of cardio here and there but I would love to calculate the calories I actually burnt during this exercise :D xx

    I find the apple watch is pretty decent at tracking most activities; paired with the phone seems to cover all the bases. More versatile
    than the Fitbit

    I have synced my Fitbit with MFP since 2015 and it works really well for my needs. It will give you a total adjustment to your daily calories based on how much you've moved (compared to what MFP estimated you would have moved).
