hi was just wondering if anyone else is having trouble with map my run not syncing with my fitness pal?
I ran yesterday and I've been for a walk tonight and I have had to manually type the exercise in. I've checked my settings and both are connected so should sync automatically shouldn't they?? It was working up untill yesterday!!

    It is just finicky

    I have map my ride. It will push in my ride data some days and won't others.

    I don't do anything and it magically works.

    I think they have server issues at times.

    I think some days the communications between the MFP and MMR servers just isn't working well. That happens occasionally with MFP and Fitbit as well.

    That's been happening to me lately too. Some days it is fine and others it's not. I wonder if I need to update one or both apps.

    Mine was having issues yesterday, so I logged in to Map My Run on my computer and it did the sync then.

    Pleased I'm not the only one this has been happening to. I'm still having trouble and having to put things in manually which isn't always a true reading of what I've done which can be frustrating!
    Will keep everything crossed that it finally works itself out I suppose?!
    Thanx for all responses nice to know I'm not on my own!!

    I'm having this exact problem today between Map My Walk and MFP. So frustrating when it works one day and not the next. Grrr...

    Map My Fitness seems to have the same issue, same company so it makes sense.
    I could not get it to synch. Finally I gave up and deleted the app. A couple of days later..when I didn't use it cuz I had deleted, not only did it synch but it gave me a huge negative calorie adjustment. I ate just 54 calories over my allotment that day ( if you add my exercise in) but instead of seeing the -54 in red I wound up getting - 454! It took my exercise of 400cals burned and added it to my calorie overage! WTH?!

    I just noticed that my workout yesterday does not show up in the "activity feed" (but is there under workouts) on map my fitness, so maybe that's part of the problem.
