Strava & Calories

My watch is importing my Strava workouts and the imported data includes calories burned. However, my watch occasionally does not count those calories toward my daily calorie count. Watch also seems to sometimes include Strava calories in the daily count then will later in the day delete those calories. None of these issues are consistent and many workouts are imported and displayed correctly. Any idea what’s going on?

Nta330,


Thank you for keeping us posted.

Have you had the chance to confirm with Strava's app developer if their app and device are meant to sync Active Calories with the Apple Watch?


If you are certain that you are experiencing an unexpected behavior, we recommend that you unpair your devices, then pair them back again.

Below are some articles to guide you through the process.
