I thought I used get get minutes counted for my aerobic activity(like a class), biking and swimming from wearing my FitBit Charge fitness watch. It would automatically count these activities if I did them for a minimum of 10 Min. I know I can add these on manually myself but is my memory right that this watch used to track and report it for me?

    Fitbit will track active minutes if you are active for however many minutes. Your specific Fitbit may even automatically record certain types of workouts if it recognizes them (I don’t know if your model does).

    If your Fitbit account and your mfp account are linked, then Fitbit will send your total calories burned for the day to mfp. Mfp will then make an adjustment to your exercise calories if Fitbit reports that you have burned (or it estimates you will burn) more calories than what mfp expects you to burn.

    You will not see Fitbit workouts entered on mfp.

    Mfp doesn’t record active minutes so that doesn’t transfer either.

    The appropriate number of calories will transfer if your accounts are linked.
