Striiv?

I had linked mine up with MFP for like a day but its adjusted calories bothered me...I felt like it was saying I had burned too many calories by just walking around my house. I finally unlinked it. Anyone else?

    I have a FitBit, not a Striiv. Other than having a problem today, how do you like it?

    I've been using the Striiv app now for 3 days. It seems to be working properly for me....

    I had a co-worker download it, link it and it was not working properly for them. It was giving them negative calories burned and tons of it!

    I want a fitbit!!! Can't afford it though :/ I just really feel like the striiv app is saying I burned way too many calories and when it adjusts my MFP I end up with so many calories left at the end of the day its ridiculous. I only used it the one day and ditched it. I still use it if I go on a walk somewhere outdoors to keep track of my time and calories but it always says I burned way more calories than MFP does when I log them.

    I have a Fitbit and unlinked it from MFP because of the adjustments it was making. I note how many calories it calculated I burned in the notes section of my food diary and only log my activity on MFP.

    I hear they are working on making the adjustments more accurate...I downloaded it to compete with other mfp friends only to find out that you can only add fb friends at this time :(

    Good advice!! I'm thinking about doing something similar.
