Fix weight entry for stone

You can select the weight option of stone on the fitbit app. This is how we measure weight in my country. However my aria will no longer connect and manual entry is not possible in stone. It automatically goes back to pounds. Please correct this bug. It means my scales no longer syncs and ive to manually calculate my weight to enter it.

Fitbit, really is this so hard! We want to enter weight data in stones and pounds. Can you please fix this. Setting weight to stones still asks for data to be entered in pounds.

Also to delete a weight entered in error now asks to go to data management the select the range to be deleted, giving a great risk of error and deleting all data. Please bring back select entry, three dots do you want to delete, yes!

You can set your weight to Stone here. 

Scroll down to Advanced Settings, find units and change Weight to Stone then click Submit at the bottom.

Hi

 I manger to get your link working and it is set to stones,  burning my last reply I can not log waite in stones. From what I have been told it can be logged in stone as this field is not cutomisiseable.  I find this odd as I was able to log waite in stone.

I changed my weight to Stone and the Fitbit app changed today's weight from pounds to stone.  I was also able to manually log another reading as stone in the Fitbit app.

What phone are you using?

I'm at a loss as to why it works for me and not for you.

What country are you in?  Maybe it's dependent on location?

Hi Lizzyfitbit, 

While this has corrected for manual entry the Aria Air weighing scales will not connect when it is in stone. It will connect for other weight options.
