I don't understand how the calories work

When my tracker says I've burned 1000 calories, is that a complete calories burned or is that in addition to what my body bird at a resting state?

Hi Mindi,

We don't estimate your basal metabolic calories burned (the ones you burn just by being alive). We only calculate the calories you burned from taking steps, based on the height, weight, and gender you entered along with steps taken and pace (how quickly those steps were taken).

Thanks,

Elizabeth
