I understand that calculating calories from heart rate, weight and age may not be that accurate, but it is better than nothing.  Can we get it added soon?

  On the Karoo, currently, the two fields Calories and Calorie Burn Rate are calculated from the Power data and not the Heart Rate data. Our calculations are based on Training Peaks and we believe measuring these values from Power (watts) is more accurate than deriving them from Heart Rate (beats per minute).

  You’re totally right, this would be a valuable feature for us to add. Your feedback is enormously valuable to us so we greatly appreciate you taking the time to write to us with your feedback. I will definitely forward this feedback to the Product team for further review.
