Steps not being added into diary

In the mfp app, tap more in the bottom right, then tap steps. Make sure that "iPhone" is selected. On your device, go to settings | general | privacy | motion & fitness. make sure that fitness tracking is enabled, and that MFP has access to the motion and fitness data.

Hi does anyone use the withings activite watch?I can get my steps to show up in the withings app fine but I can't get the steps or food to be shared between the two apps can anyone help

(assuming iphone--don't know android) go to the mfp app, tap more, go to steps. if you don't see the withings app there, add it. you'll need to auth to withings before mfp can access it. once this is done, make sure withings is selected as your step source.

I use polar flow too and it has never added my steps. It only counts my exercise but even that is not very accurate.

you have to set it to add your steps, mine was adding until 2 days ago, how are you determining the accuracy? I've look at the "recommended charts and formula's" and they are all over the place?

My steps show up on my phone apps, not on the website.

I've been having trouble with my steps and negative calorie adjustments not being updated either. I've disconnected on both apps, reconnected, enabled step tracking, logged out and in and still nothing. I also use Polar Flow. The app and watch are syncing fine and my Health App on my iPhone is also syncing fine. It's just MFP that's not working.

ETA: it was working perfectly fine until the last 3-4 days.

My steps show up on my app and on my watch, I don't have a problem there. Now, when I synch to MFP app from the Polar Flow app, the info on MFP is always off. It usually rounds the time ( if my run took me 31:05 mins it rounds it to 32), also it the calories burned are always less than what my polar says. It is annoying but I just adjust it manually. MFP has never showed my steps from polar on the app.

When you say I need to set it up to add the steps, how do I do it?

Thanks

On the apple device on your home page the 3 dots in the bottom right corner and you should see steps in the menu, just pick polar as your device.

For android it's the top left corner, go settings and steps, add a device.

Also if you have negative adjustment, it will adjust for total calories from your device, and not MFP projected calories.
