Ability to manually enter steps

Since many of the health trackers I have used do not sync with MyFitnessPal at all, and don't sync well with Google Fit it would be nice if I could manually add my steps for the day like I can manually add my exercises.

Hi! We're sorry, but there is not currently a way to convert your step count into calories burned unless you have integrated your MyFitnessPal account with one of our integration partners (https://www.myfitnesspal.com/apps). That being said, Google Fit is a partner app we do integrate with!
If your pedometer reports the calories burned, you can add a custom exercise to your database and call it "pedometer" (https://support.myfitnesspal.com/hc/en-us/articles/360032625831-Can-I-add-a-new-exercise-to-the-database).
If you would like to chart your steps walked on a daily basis, you can also add steps as a measurement (https://support.myfitnesspal.com/hc/en-us/articles/360032624891-Can-I-track-additional-measurements-or-change-the-default-measurements)to track in your account.
