Calorie display on Activity dashboard

Former Member over 8 years ago

What metric is displaying on the Calories column on the Activity summary/dashboard page? It's certainly not calories burned for the activity.

Crazy thing is there's different values on the different dashboard screens (in my Connect atleast). See my screen shots from a run I did last Wednesday with the forerunner 735XT.

Step count calories (1960) are different from the activity screen (3968) ...
What's going on?

For comparison... Strava counts this for my run: 1218 (k?)cal

Endomondo sais 947 KCal (notice the Kcal I thought other values are KiloCalories as well))

Opening the activity itself in Garmin Connect shows Garmin and Endomondo agree with eachother... Garmin Connect now sais 947 ???

Looks as though it's now sorted with Calories showing both in the Activities List & on the Activity itself

The calories shown on for steps is for all active (steps or otherwise) EXCEPT for timed activities such as running.

Look at Daily Summary/Activities. Put the cursor over the ? by Steps.
