Does the Fitbit Charge 2 load your daily exercise to myfitnesspal? I see that myfitnesspal exercises automatically log into the Fitbit but not vice versa..

Hi, no it doesn't, it just does a calorie reduction for calories burned.1

My Fitness Pal says to log exercises into MFP only. Just got my Fitbit today so not sure how this will work.0

You should not log step-based activities in MFP, because the Fitbit will provide a better estimate for those than the MFP equations. You have a choice to log non-step based activities in either Fitbit or MFP, but make sure the time zones are the same and if you log it in MFP log the exact Start Time so that the activity is not double counted. MFP provides a single Fitbit Tracker adjustment that is updated throughout the day when the two programs sync. The final sync for the day is at midnight.

If MFP and Fitbit are synced but you are not seeing Fitbit steps, on the MFP mobile app go to Menu > Steps, or on the web version go to APPS > Steps, and make sure Fitbit Tracker is selected as the Step Source.
If MFP and Fitbit are not syncing at all, read through the below articles and follow the steps. If you still have trouble syncing the Fitbit, then I would recommend opening a Case with Customer Support on the MFP Help/FAQ pages... http://myfitnesspal.desk.com/customer/portal/emails/new
Please see these articles, and search for answers to Frequently Asked Questions and other helpful articles, on the MFP Help/FAQ pages...
