Translation mistake in Dutch version of Android app

There is a translation mistake in the Dutch (Nederlandse) version of the Fitbit Android app.
The sleep score description for the “Fair” level (60-79) is translated as “Matig”.
This is a too negative translation.
Matig would something like “Mediocre” in English.
A better translation is “Redelijk”.
By the way, it is already translated correctly on the Dutch language version of the Fitbit Help page about the sleep scores “Wat is de slaapscore in de Fitbit-app?” ( https://help.fitbit.com/articles/nl_NL/Help_article/2439/?q=Sleep+score&l=nl_NL ).
On this page the levels are correctly translated as:

Excellent -> Uitstekend
Good -> Goed
Fair -> Redelijk
Poor -> Slecht

So can this please be corrected in the App?

Hello RicardoFitbit,


Thank you for your prompt response.
I am happy that this is being looked into, because it is rather demotivating to see my sleeping score being called “Matig” so often.

Hello RicardoFitbit,

 

This problem in the Dutch language version of the Fitbit Android is now solved, so thanks 🙂

Since a short while I am now sleeping "Redelijk" instead of "Matig", so this is much better.

Cheers,
