Weather Units

[Jensoo]

I'm really liking the Versa, the one thing I'm not liking however is having the weather in Fahrenheit! I hate the fact that you have to change your units from Miles to KMs to have the weather in Celsius, because I only work in Miles! (And I'm pretty sure most of the UK works in Miles & Celsius, so the whole thing makes no sense). You really should be able to change it to your preference in the app. 

Also would be great to have walking in the exercise settings.

Hi.  I suggest that you add the Celcius/miles issue to the Feature Suggestions.

Walk is a tracked exercise.  To add it to your Versa, go to the page onthe Fitbit App where you select the clockfaces and Apps and scroll down.  Under "General"  there is a section for "Exercise Shortcuts".  You can select and reorder exercises for your Versa there.

Thanks, I just followed the link fitbit gave me on Twitter.

Walking isn't a shortcut, there's only run, bike, treadmill, swim, weights, interval work out & work out.

Here is the current suggestion for having separate control of temperature between F/C. The more people vote for it, the more likely Fitbit is to implement it.

Walk is a shortcut.  I did not think it was either, but someone corrected me and with further research, I now have it in my list of shortcuts.

Annoying that when I have searched for this problem, it was complained about on the Iconic (?) too, so I wouldn't hold my breath on them changing it. Unfortunately.

Yeah, I won't hold my breath!

Hi did you have any joy with walking tracker, I thought I'd just try the run as I'll be moving albeit not run pace!! 

[Jensoo]

I didn't. I may try the run one too and see how that works. It's a shame because I do loads of walking.

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.
