As an Australian, your fitness page in the app stating that you are "rooting" for me is offensive and definitely not suitable for children

 
Rooting is completely inappropriate for Australian users 
 
Fix it.

@peterhoz Good day to you. Thanks for bringing this up to our attention. I was not aware of the definition for this word in Australia. You are correct, in your country that is not suitable for any audience. Note that it was not deliberately done and the connotation was actually motivational. I will definitely forward your comments. As soon as I get more information, I will get back to you. Thanks again!
