Can a setting be added to allow To change from Fahrenheit to Celsius. Otherwise this app is useless  to anyone not in America.... Like almost all of  them!

I received a email on how to change it to Fahrenheit.

The unit setting location has changed with the recent update that went
through in the last month. See the link below.

https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/2275/?q=how+do+I+set+up+and+troubleshoot&l=en_US...

The only thing I did was to go into the direction of the device / apps /
select weather settings button / temp unit with say celsius or Fahrenheit.
I then did a sync and it updated to the correct temperature. Hope this
helps, it did for me.

I'm glad to hear you both were able to set your Weather @Kimrae2 and @Angyp807! What you got from support was what I recently posted hereWoman Wink

 

If you have any questions, let me know.

I have the opposite problem. I have selected miles but the temp is Celsius. Guess someone heard the UK complaint....

I’m going to try to guide you through fixing it; as I was given the same issue with the weather part. Go onto your phone Fitbit app and click on the watch icon top left. Hopefully you have a similar phone format. When you click on the phone you will see an icon to click on apps. Click it. Scroll down till you see weather and click. Then settings and then unit you choose. Then sync and all is well again in the world. 😃

Thanks for jumping in here @Crakky! Have you tried and checked what @Kimrae2 shared with you? Woman Very Happy

 

Welcome on board @TroyLandry! As I mentioned here, I'd like to know if you've recently updated your Fitbit to OS 2.2? Some customers reported the weather app displays the temperature in Celsius. Just as you're describing .

When a customer updates to OS 2.2, users will now have a new temperature Units section in the weather app settings and it defaults to Celsius.

 

See How do I set up and troubleshoot apps on my Fitbit device? for instructions on configuring the new temperature Units (Celsius/Fahrenheit) section. 

 

Give this a go and let me know the outcome!

That is not true. Mine is set to miles and it shows Celsius. How can I change it to Fahrenheit?

@chrissyb609 It's likely because you belong to that 10% who received the update to OS 2.2 on your device. 

As @MarreFitbit clearly wrote in her post please follow the instruction at

Thanks for jumping in here @chrissyb609. Please what @Giampi71 said here (thanks for your back up on this one). Smiley Very Happy

 

Welcome @Aloof! Do you have an Ionic or Versa? Did you recently updated it? If so, please keep in mind what I've been posting along this thread. 

 

After updating to OS 2.2, users will now have a new temperature Units section in the weather app settings and it defaults to Celsius. So, you need to manually change it.

Bad news. I received mine today and I'm facing this issue as well. I'm stuck in Celsius. We use Fahrenheit and I've updated the settings like 10 times today, synced, and the weather app is still using Celsius somehow.

 

Just for the record, these are the current settings:

-Feet / Miles checked

-Pounds checked

-Fluid Ounces (oz)

-Yard

 

Any help will be appreciated.

 

 

Update: 

Solved. But first, let me tell you how surprised I am. Coming from you guys from inside this didn't work out or this response is outdated and needs to be removed or updated.

 

-Click top left corner on your Versa

-Select Apps

-Select Weather and select the Units that you prefer.

 My advanced settings are set to miles as well as all other measurements to American measurements but it still says Celsius instead of Fahrenheit. Any thoughts on how I can fix it?

I’m in the US with a new Charge 3, set to miles and I get temps in Celsius.  No way to change this that I can see.  Need a update from the FitBit team. 

Best Answer
None of those helped but I did finally learn I could Open the app directly in the app sections and change from Celsius two Fahrenheit there.

Thanks!

I have my units set to mile but my weather still set to celcius.  How can I change it to farenheit? And when I try to check my messages it always says I'm caught up. Is there a way to get my texts?

1. Open Fitbit App
2. Upper Left corner click on your device
3. Select Apps
4. Select Weather
5. Select Settings
6. Select Fahrenheit / Celsius

Go all the way back and sync your device. That should do the trick.
