Ability to change height for kids

[MartinaEthiopia]

I want to be able to.change the height of my child in their profile. I have one child with an Ace and one child with an Ace 2. I checked community and there it stated it was not available which seems crazy as kids constantly growing 🙂

Is this still not possible to do? Children grow and if step size is determined by height but you cant adjust height? Doesnt make sense.

This feature isn't just nice to have, it's essential!! And really, it's such a small thing, also where you can reuse existing code, why can't you just implement it? Really it makes the Fitbit Ace and Fitbit Ace 2 very deficient as a kids product - kids grow, duh!

I am a very loyal Fitbit user, have been with Fitbit since the Fitbit Ultra in 2011.

Just bought an Ace 3 for my kids. I guessed on the height and now I can't figure out how to change it. Is this still not a feature? I don't understand why it's not. Any update?

Thanks!

Is there any change on this in the last few months?

I need to change the height on my kid's account and I really would prefer avoiding deleting and starting again with permissions, family approvals, etc.

...and I can only imagine that most of the kids who got their first Ace a couple of years ago are a few cm taller now 🙂

Cheers

Yeah, changing the height of kids would be a great thing because they grow all the time. I have two sons, and I like to compare their heights. They won't stay still, so I can never put them next to each other. I measure their height when I have the time, and I put the data on heightcomparison.com. It helps me visualize their heights and their growth. It's simple to use, and you can compare any height you want.
It would be cool if Fitbit added this to their app because many people are waiting for this.
