How do I set metric system?-Versa

[Baäl]

I have setup my fitbit to use kilograms, meter, centimeter, kilometers etc.

I notice that for example my run and bike exercise on fitbit today show avg pace 4'27" instead of metric system.

did i forget a setting somewhere or is this a bug? setting the Units on my fitbit i would expect that everything is shown in metric.

Can you clarify the problem here please.

Is it that you think the pace should be showing something other than minutes and seconds or is that you think the pace is showing time per mile rather than time per kilometer?

[Baäl]

avg pace in my view means the average speed, not the average time.

Why would it show average time of my bike ride?

If i start my bike exercise and then stop it when done, i would the average pace to show kilometer per hour as that is the pace / speed.

minutes and seconds is a time measure not a speed measure

Pace can have different meanings for different people. For fitbit it's the time per unit of distance.

Someone has created a feature suggestion to allow us to choose between time and speed. If you'd like to add your vote you can find it here:

Strange that Pace means something different for Fitbit then :S

my last bike ride lasted around 9 minutes, why would it show then avg pace 4'27"

please explain how to read if Fitbit style

[SteveH]

If I run 2 miles in 20 minutes then my pace is 10' 0" i.e. I ran 1 mile in 10 minutes. 

What I'm not sure about is whether it always uses time per mile or whether it uses time per kilometer if your profile settings are all metric like yours.

Ok

thank u for the clarification.

i have voted on the suggestion, as showing 4'27" is not metric and not logical
