Can we only use fractions in food logs??

Is there still not a way to change how we enter food logs? By only having a "fractions" system, it's hard to get the amounts correct or accurate. Decimals would be a lot more practical.

You can. I just pull up the food and then on severing. I use the mouse to position where the amount is i enter .5 or what ever I ate.

But that's on the website, right? I don't think decimals are available in the app.

You can use decimal fractions in the Android application or the website. The Windows 10 application, however, only allows the use of imperial fractions.

Just so I'm clear, there is no way (or solution) to change to decimals on the iPhone app?

I just entered on the Android app 4.5 cups of lettuce and .5 bread sticks. So it should work on the iPhone

That screenshot is what my app looks like. When Fitbit only gives you "preset" fractions (I can't even chang the numbers in the fractions), the food log entries can be very inaccurate. So, when I have to choose between only 2/3 and 3/4, depending on the food, that can be a huge difference in calories because I can't use what it actually is; I can't use .7.

Did you try to tap in the field of serving size?

 

As that's what I do then I can erase whats there and add what I want

If you cant tap in that field you might want to post in the iOS forum.As this really has nothing to do with the Blaze it self Its a dashboard or App problem. You will get better help there

Thanks for the suggestion! I have posted in the "iOS" forum.

 

I didn't realize Fitbit allows decimals on every device but the iOS app. Makes no sense, especially considering that they used to. Why remove it??
