duplicate activities in Connect coming from MyFitnessPal

Former Member over 10 years ago

I use a Garmin Forerunner to log my runs, but have always had to enter these manually (or via RunKeeper) to get the calories burned into MFP. Very recently, I've noticed that MFP has started sending activity information to Connect, in addition to nutrition. However, these activities are already logged in Connect thanks to my Forerunner. I am having to manually delete the MFP activities. Do I need to disconnect MFP from Connect? Or, stop entering exercise into MFP? I really don't want to do either.

Thanks in advance!

I noticed the same problem. It is rather tedious. I can't figure out a way to selectively sync. I only want nutrition coming into Garmin Connect, not exercising.

Yes, same problem here. I upload to Garmin Connect from Edge 810 and have auto-sync setup with Myfitnesspal and Trainingpeaks. Noticed recently that Myfitnesspal has been duplicating the workout data and syncing back across to Connect, this then pushes the duplicate on to Trainingpeaks too. A bit annoying.

Any ideas how to stop this?

I'm having the same issue. I was really excited about this feature, but this is an annoying bug. I can't find any way to do a one-way sync (I want my run data to go to MFP, but I don't want any of my MFP data on my Garmin dashboard.)

What could possibly the cause is too many connected apps, thath sync data. So, if connect syncs with MFP and Runkeeper also is connected tot MFP, than MFP records 2 activities, which are exactly the same. Then it back syncs with connect and/of runkeeper.

That means a simple sollution. Connect can be linked with MFP. Runkeeper is not linked, it works stand alone.

Let me know if this helps

I have the same issue. The only app that sync with MFP is Garmin. Annoying.

Same issue here. Garmin and MFP!!!!!! Why aren't you fixing this bug? Your client services approach SUCK!

Also affected by this.

I use MFP to get Fitbit weight data.
