@Extreme_One Fitbit has a long-standing issue with confusing miles and kilometers. There are 1.6 kilometers in a mile. I think the error you're seeing may be related to this problem on Fitbit's end. I am sorry, but I do not know of a workaround for this and I am not aware of any plans to fix this.

Thank you. 

I went into settings, changed units from miles to kilometers and then back again and this seems to have fixed the issue. 👍

@Extreme_One I'm sorry to hear that.

If you tap your user icon in the upper right corner of the Fitbit app, you'll see "feedback" at the bottom of the next menu. You can use that to let Google know what you think of this situation, if you'd like.
