Can be the Weather app switched to Celsius?

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Does anyone know if you can change the units on the weather app, the main one is coming up on Fahrenheit and I have not got a clue what that is, being from the UK we do Celsius, so i'm confused when I look at the app.

Welcome to the Fitbit Community @CrayCray84, hope you're doing great my friend! A really good question!

 

The temperature scale (Fahrenheit and Celsius) is determined based on what you have chosen for "Length Units" in your account settings. If you have this set to "Miles," temperature will display in Fahrenheit. If you have it set to "Kilometers," temperature will display in Celsius.

 

You can also swipe up from the bottom of the screen when viewing the Weather app to see a forecast for the next few days.

 

Hope this helps!  Let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to assist you with. Woman Very Happy

@MarreFitbit thank you for getting back to me.

 

I was hoping to keep the distance in miles and temp in Celsius. I prefer knowing how far I've traveled in miles.

 

Where would I suggest being to have separate settings for the weather app to the distance that is set?

It's always a pleasure @CrayCray84I'd recommend checking out our Feature Suggestion Board if you haven't already. This is a space where Community users can post features, ideas, and suggestions that they'd like to see in future Fitbit products, accessories, and software and top-voted suggestions get relayed to our product team for review.

 

I'd also recommend up-voting and commenting on Enable Celsius units on weather app without having to change distance to kilometers feature suggestion since it is very similar of what you're looking and asking for.

 

Hope this helps my friend! Woman Wink

I have downloaded an app that you can manually change the temperature to Celsius without switching the distance to km.  It's called WeatherCast by Chris Spooner. It's a shame Fitbit haven't done anything on their default weather app for us UK customers.
