Hi everyone. I don't know if this was asked before, but is there an app that synchronizes with MFP and tells it how many calories you burned during a walk? I'm trying to keep things as accurate as possible and sometimes I don't know how fast I walked or for how long exactly. I've noticed that although I'm walking quite regularly lately, I haven't been losing any weight, so it might be that I'm overestimating. Please help!

    Ok so I used the search button :) I can see there are some apps on here, I just have to figure out which is the best one and how to synchronize it. I take it MFP just gives you more calories based on the data provided by the other app? Any input would be much appreciated!

    Map My Fitness (map my walk, map my ride, map my run, map my bike). Syncs with MFP. They also have a pedometer for mmf. About $20. Syncs with map.

    Mfp, not map.

    My fitbit is synced with MFP. It tracks calories burned (along with steps and active minutes) and MFP gives me extra calories in my daily total if fitbit sends over a higher calorie burn total. I also use Map My Run when I run and walk which also syncs with MFP and calculates calories burned. If you are outside you don't need a pedometer. The Map My Run app will track your distance using your phones GPS.
