Allow us to edit exercise details w/o reverting on Fitbit app

When I try save an edit to either duration or distance of an exercise session in the Android app, the save button appears to work, the updated data briefly flashes on the session information screen, then reverts to the automatically recorded data.

For years now people have been complaining about the fact that though the app gives you the option to change the distance, it keeps reverting back. This would not be the nuisance it is if it were not also the case that stride calculation is wildly inaccurate--it gave me the pace of a 70 year old!

fitbit edit exercise activity save bug

Bug:

* Android app, latest version.
* Edit exercise from today that I recorded via my fitbit device
* Change duration from 34 to 31 minutes (same behavior for change distance)
* Hit save
* The screen may briefly show 31 but almost immediately reverts back to 34

 

I have restarted my fitbit device and uninstalled and restarted my phone.

I made a similar request. This was able to be done in the previous version of the app prior to the oct update. It seems like we are supposed to still have this funciton but it does not work properly.
