Weekly Report does not use defined starting day

[tiredoftry]

While I realize the weekly report uses a predefined start date of Monday, it should use the defined start date of the app/online profile as this would allow you to look up your 'stats' in both places and get the same results and avoid the confusion created by not having a full syncronized setup/notification system.

Bottomline, if you allow us to set a start day for our week, you should follow thru to use it for all reporting.

@tiredoftry Thanks for stopping by! This is a really good idea. Feel free to share it in our Feature Suggestions board where other members can vote for it. If it becomes popular then the developers may try to implement it.

Let me know how it goes!

Thank you for the link to the features/suggestion section.  I have posted it there as well.  Hopefully, it will be added.

@tiredoftry Glad I could help! If you wish you can post the link to your suggestion here so other members can take a look and vote for it.

I'll be around!

Great idea.  Here is the link https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Feature-Suggestions/Weekly-Progress-report-should-use-defined-week-s...

As of 3/27/2018, the weekly report is STILL using Monday as the default start day.  I agree with the poster - that if the app allows the user to set the defined start of the week, the weekly stats should respect that start day as well.  This is software - it can be changed.  it would be deeply appreciated if you would fix it.

@Whackyshoe Welcome! It's great to see you around! Thank you for the input, as it was mentioned before you can vote for the idea so the developers know that there are many users interested in this change and try to implement it.

Keep me posted!

This appears to be another Fitbit defined setting that they have no interest in changing (as they aren't actually interested in improving the user experience, rather they want the user to have the experience Fitbit wants them to have).

As of January 2019, this problem still has not been repaired.

(and the condescending, "wow, thanks for participating in the discussion.  That is a really good idea, here is where you can suggest changes" is pretty offensive).

I agree and here it is 2023 and still it hasnt been fixed.  I have selected Sunday as my start day and always get weekly results start day of Monday. What gives?  Sunday is the first day of the week. Not Monday. Hate to be paranoid but is this some kind of anti-Christian bias??

Vote for the idea? Sunday start date is an option under App Settings. Why have the option if it really isnt an option? It’s 2023 now and it looks like this was first inquired about in 2018.
