How do I configure MFP to display burned calories?

Is it possible to sync the accurate number of burned calories from Samsung Health? I used MFP several years ago, and it worked great. I started using it again about ten days ago. Up until yesterday, when Samsung Health alerted me that I had exceeded the daily limit by 540 calories, I continued to use MFP without paying attention to the random numbers of calories burned, which didn't match Samsung Health. I noticed that, in addition to the calories burned, there was a "Samsung calorie adjustment." If I erase this "exercise," it reappears later. It confuses me, making it difficult to determine how many calories I've already burned and how many more I need to reach my goal.
How can I configure MFP to display the actual number of calories burned?

Thank you,
Vinko

    Setting MFP to take only burned calories from the device seems impossible. Stopping synchronization with the Samsung Health app is the only way to eliminate these fictitious burned calories.
