Heyo Guys & Gals,

 

I wouldn't even bring this up if I didn't like the look, features and premise of the app, but this app has no idea what it's doing with it's calories or I'm just doing it wrong...

 

I'm 6'1", 68kg, Male, 22

Set to Sedentary Lifestyle

Goal to Gain Weight at a 300-500 cal Surplus (0.25-0.5kg* per week)

 

The app says for me to maintain my weight is 2500cal* but the app goes against this number in every possible way it can it's actually a joke... my goal is set to gain weight at a 500 cal surplus (0.5kg) yet the app says today was a good eating day at 2700 calories in... that's not a 500 surplus that's 200 when my maintenance is 2500 calories.

 

The app says my maintenance weight is 2500cal* but it just doesn't go by that rule that I need to eat more than that, The other day I burnt 1900cal at rest and 200 walking = 2100 calories... but the app says my maintenance weight is 2500cal* yet It didn't burn that.

 

This app is broke to all hell, sucks cause I love my Gear Sport watch that I got recently

 

[EDIT]

I Decided to Reinstalled the app (Pixel 2 XL) to let it reset the data and it actually fixed everything

My Calorie intake is all way lower now and accurate
