Heart rate monitor

Hi,

I recently purchased a heart rate monitor which i thought also included a calorie count (it doesn't). Is there a reliable website or app somebody can recommend, where I could input my heart rate etc and it would give me a good estimate of how many calories I have burned?

I came across this one: http://www.shapesense.com/fitness-exercise/calculators/heart-rate-based-calorie-burn-calculator.aspx

Anybody used it or can recommend another?

Thanks in advance.
Sorry if this is a repeat question; i'm new here and couldn't find a similar thread upon searching.

    I use Map My Fitness. Plus it syncs with MFP!

    Thanks Steph, I installed it but unfortunately my HRM does not have bluetooth so I could not sync it with the app with the app you recommended.
    I have installed another app though called Calories Burned Calculator by kremerapps. It seems to give good estimates based on my HR readings. I will see how it fares!

    Thank you!
