Can anyone reccomend one.

I downloaded the map my walk one but for some reason the timer goes up. But not calories burned
It was in my back pocket. 1hr 45 walk. Said i had burned 10 calories and walked 0.3km
I definitely didn't

You really need something with built in GPS to get an accurate distance and if you want calories burned you need a heart rate monitor. There’s watches that include both but they aren’t cheap.

Thank you. It was only for a rough idea more out of curiosity.
But will look at watches too

Try strava on your phone for distance recording. As a rough guide I work to about 100 calories per mile for running, maybe a bit less for walking (but that’s brisk pace walking).
