Fitbit app showing completely wrong weight

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

I don't track my weight in Fitbit. I have a withings scale, and track my weight in Google Fit, and I do use FitToFit to sync between the two apps, but I don't sync body weight, only steps and workouts. Since the new update to the app (with the new layout), Fitbit has clearly been tracking a weight.. But not mine. The only way it could be my weight is if it was measured in lbs, but then logged in kgs. Fitbit keeps telling me I weigh 130 kgs. I'm not far off 130 lbs, but I still don't know where Fitbit is getting its numbers, because I'm not tracking them. What's going on?

Hi

 

I have tried reinstalling the app - didn't change anything.

I'm using a Fitbit Charge 3, and a OnePlus 6 with Android 9. I don't remember which day the weight starting displaying wrong, but it was some time last week, and it happens daily. I delete the wrong entry for one day, and the next day a new wrong measurement appears.

I never heard anything more from FitBit about this. The problem remains exactly the same.
