Use a different app language than my phone setting

Hi,

 

I am using an android phone set to Swedish and have seen the posts about that I then am bound to the Swedish language used in the fitbit app. That would be fine if it indeed was real Swedish shown. Unfortunately I see a mix of English and "Swedish". The later is in exclamation marks since many things are not known as Swedish to me (native speeker). Some have been corrected lately but many remain. So, I would like a setting that could let me have my phone as I want it and still get one and only one understandable language in my app. I would be perfectly happy without Swedish as long as I can leave my phone setting as Swedish still since that is good for many other apps.

 

Example of mix:

On my dash board I see "3 of 5 Days weekly exercise" -- English, neat and clean

Then I click that and get into "Träning" "Denna vecka" "1 hr 56 mins" ... "Run" "Idag kl 13:24" "27 min" -- mixed languages but at least correct even though the mix messes with my brain

Below that "154 spm gnsn". That is not Swedish that I know... By thinking of what it would say in English and translating it back and forth I can guess what the abbreviation must be "slag per minut, genomsnitt?" But it is not readable.

 

Hoping to get my English, readable dashboard back soon.

Hi there @AnnaNe, thank you for joining to our Fitbit Community! I appreciate you have brought this to my attention. I will rely your feedback to our teams to consider this in future versions of the Fitbit app.

 

As you know the Fitbit app takes the language configuration from your phone, however Swedish is not supported by the app and might occurred this glitches you have mentioned if the language is not supported. Rest assure we are constantly working to improve the Fitbit experience so keep an open eye for future updates!

 

Thank you again for your feedback. See you later!
