Fitbit for android shows a very different number for my distance goal compared to an ipad or the desktop website.  I've set my goal to 3.5 miles per day, but android shows this as 2.17 miles.  The step goal icon on the main screen accurately reflects the 3.5-mile goal and progress towards that goal.   If I change the goal in the android app to 3.5 miles, it actually puts it higher at almost 5 miles when looking at the desktop or iOS apps.  Does anybody else see this weird discrepancy on their android devices only?

3.5 km = 2.17 miles

Fitbit confuses the units.  This has been reported to Fitbit long ago.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
