Hi Slayerofall,


The following information from Calibrate your Apple Watch for improved Workout and Activity accuracy includes details on calorie count:


"Calibration can also improve the accuracy of your calorie calculations in the Workout app, and the calorie, distance, Move and Exercise calculations in the Activity app." (emphasis added)


and


"Improve your Workout and Activity accuracy

Your personal information, such as your height, weight, gender and age, is one of the things your Apple Watch uses to calculate how many calories you burn and more. Learn how to update your personal information."


Manual entry of activity would not be factored into calorie tracking, only device-recorded activity or Workout app sessions would be expected to accrue this data.


Regards.
