Blaze displaying miles in kilometres

My fist few weeks of experience with my new tracker Fitbit Blaze has been disappointing. 

 

I noticed my Blaze is picking inaccurate data with several other issues. My charge HR never had such issues.

 

Please find the comparison of Fitbit Blaze Vs Treadmill Vs Jabra Coach.

 

25th May 2016

 

Treadmill : 3.31miles / 23.10 duration

Jabra Coach : 5.02 kms / 22.37 duration

FitBit : 3.32 kms / 23.25 duration

Fitbit : 2.84 kms / 19.48 duration

Jabra Coach : 4.09 kms / 19.29 duration

I have set the Length as Centimetres, Kilometres.  I only run on Treadmill so no GPS enabled. I swipe right and tap on Exercise and select Treadmill and start my run.

 

Please help me to fix this issue.

First, you should check your fitbit's stride length under settings in the fitbit app. It is possible that the stride length is not accurate. This can cause your blaze to think that you are running less than you actually are. Also, if you hold on to the rail at all or pick up your phone for a bit while running, it can affect the accuracy of the step counter which will cause an inacurate distance measurement. I suggest you use the known distance travelled and the steps taken in that distance to calculate an average stride length to use as the stride length for the blaze.

 

Ilso, it might be worth trying to switch the balze back to miles and try running again to see wha tthe results are and how consistent they are.

Its frustrating..!!!. I never manually set my stride length on Fitbit Charge HR, Jabra Coach or Nike plus and still i would get accurate results.

 

I changed the lenght from kilometers to miles and its still not matchin up with the summary on treadmill.
