Exercise data transfer from 3rd party apps

I am wondering why my exercises which are added though other apps (Garmin Connect and Polar Flow) do not show up in my feed until I manually add something on the exercise tab. Do anyone else experience this and have found a trick to avoid having to remember to manually adjust?

    Sounds like you found a bug! It should transfer automatically as soon as you have a data connection after you finish your activity. That's how it's worked for years for me and everyone I know. Probably MFP will get it fixed soon.

    You do mean just on your feed? It shows up in your diary without any issues?
    I have that issue regularly with my Garmin. Runs post on my feed about half of the time, strength training is posted around 1 out of 4 or 5 times, I think.
    Not a clue why. I never add exercise manually to MFP, I do post my workouts manually on my feed if it doesn't happen automatically.

    (weight loss is supposed to be posted automatically to my feed too when I log it in Garmin, but that hasn't happened a single time in...more than a year?)
