Sync Fitbit exercises

Instead of just syncing steps from Fitbit, it would be good if exercises from Fitbit came across so I don’t have to manually enter them in mfp

    As it turns out, individual exercises logged within Fitbit will not show as an individual line item within your exercise diary on your MFP account. The calorie burns for those specific exercises are sent to MyFitnessPal and included within the total daily calorie burn pushed from Fitbit to your MFP account. This is then displayed within the details of the MyFitnessPal calorie adjustment in your Diary.

    I have this problem too and its a real drag. I used to use edomundo to calc imp mybexercises and ditbit justbto yrack my hr. But now when i do exercises its annoying because ill spend an hour in the gym get a good 350 calorie burn. Great. But if i walk for like 20 minutes its show almostbtwice as much burn. As a result i dont have burned calories cpunted because this makes no sense to me. I would certainly wind up having eaten more calories than i burned if i let it deduct them. Anyone have a better solution to this? I wish we could seperate steps cals from cal burn from exercise. Anyone know of anoyher app that can auto sync that into mfp?
