Different methods of wearing the Apple Watch.If you want to use Apple Watch to monitor consumption habits then sync your watch to MyFitness Pal app and Apple Health ecosystem.Ĭonnecting Apple Watch to MyFitness Pal is straightforward, continue reading the article to learn how to sync Apple Watch to MyFitnessPal. What makes this connection between Apple Watch and MyFitnessPal possible is the Apple Health app – it is within the Apple ecosystem and can integrate with any third-party app. The app is well known for tracking the number of calories burned.Ĭounting the number of calories burned is not just it – MyFitnessPal App can go as far as tracking your gym activities once connected to Apple Watch. Why is this all so hard? When the Health app first came out I thought the age of inconsistent health apps was supposed to end.MyFitnessPal has been one of Apple Watch’s trending wellness apps available on Apple Store for free. Great! Apple wants me to gain 2lbs a week. Why? I think maybe Apple Watch calculates resting calories as "how many have you used so far during the day" so it keeps adding until midnight.įor reference: my BMR should be about 2100, but Apple Watch says 3100 when I look back. Looking at my resting calories at the end of th day seemed good, but when I looked back at previous day's it was way off. My Apple Watch/Health Kit total calories (active plus resting) seems pretty accurate.Įdit: Never mind that last part I wrote. Now if there were a way to take the number Apple counts as your total calorie burn, then subtract say 250 or 500 from it automatically and shove that into MFP, I think that would work. But I'd hardly call Apple Watch +3 days with MFP "awesome." Anything other than "sedentary" treats your calorie level as incorporating some amount of unmeasured movement, so any movement which is counted by the app would be double counted. I spent so much time tinkering with the MFP calorie count that I'm loath to have to figure out how the watch fits in.ītw: if you're counting step calories you really should enter "sedentary" as your activity level. The calorie count on the watch is different from the calorie count on MFP, even with identical steps. I'm not getting my step calories from my watch either, but even if I did there would be a problem.
