Start day of the week to be any day of the week

[RosemaryB]

Allow week to start on ANY selected day to ensure that it links to your personal plan which could start on any day of the week.  For example I am in a diet program and the first day of the week in this program is Tuesdays but was not an option as currently only Monday and Sunday are.  

Thank you,

Please expand the 'Start Week On...' from only Sunday or Monday - to include Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday as well.

My WeightWatches week starts on Saturday, and it would really help to synchronise the Fitbit app on the same day of the week.

I happen to weigh in on Fridays and therefore that is the start of my new week. My day one. Unfortunately my Charge 2 only gives Sunday or Monday as an option to start you week? With this setting in place I can never see real time stats from my day one! Frustrating to say the least. I do not have time to transport info through excel. I want to open my app and see my info and days on the right count. Please make a change to make all days of the week available. Thank you.

I’m referring to where you go to ‘Account’, ‘Advanced settings’, ‘Week starts on’. It only gives you the option to start on Sunday or Monday. 

I'm a Personal Trainer and usually recommend clients to purchase a FitBit to use alongside My Fitness Pal to keep track (i specialise in weight loss).  For clients doing their weekly check in with me on a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday it’s a nightmare at the moment as the have to add their steps up themselves daily. 

In My Fitness Pal - we are able to start the week on any day they like - I don’t understand why FitBit has limited it to just 2 days... (photos attached).

I’m always coaching clients that any day is a good day to start a healthy lifestyle - having the FitBit limit start dates, just feeds into the mindset of people constantly waiting until the beginning on the week to start.

Thanks for looking into this for me.

My weekly sleep average is always pretty good since I am able to get much more sleep on the weekends than I do weekdays. However, the exact opposite is true for exercise/steps. I think it would be great to see our stats based on some additional layers of filtering. I would like to see my sleep & exercise averages for weekdays,  weekends, & overall.

PLEASE! Fitbit, allow us to change the start day to any day of the week, not just Sunday or Monday, very limiting  my vote personally is for a Saturday, but many people seem to be asking for Thursday's, just make it an option to choose any day, unfortunately this seems to have been a request since 2014

[MarcelBK]

Hey @Purplebasset! I merged your idea in this suggestion because they are very similar.

[wendy.toms]

It would be useful if I could make the start of my week a Friday to fit in with my weight watchers programme that I am doing.  Currently the option to start your week are a Monday or Sunday.  For me another day would be preferred.

Hi @wendy.toms, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us,this feature suggestion already exists so I’ve moved your post here as it is not currently planned.

We are only offered Sunday or Monday to begin our week. I would like to select any day (e.g., Saturday).

I wish we could change the start day to any day of the week.  If I bought my watch on a certain day I would like to start that particular day not start tracking those 2 days.  Yes I know you can still use the watch , however I'm the type of person that likes to have everything sync up.  Plus, I'm on weight watchers and my starting day for them is on Tuesday.  Hope you all considering changing this,  THANKS!!

 I work third shift as a first responder. My day of the week does not start on Sunday or Monday. It would be nice to have complete control over when the week starts as well as the time. 0000 hours is in the middle of the day for me. This throws my food/water intake off and doesn't track properly.  I am sure this would benefit anyone who works a third shift schedule.

My work has a MHealthy challenge.  Our week goes from Tuesday to Monday.  It would be nice to set my dashboard to view my progress on the same cycle work does.  Based on varying work schedules I am sure others would appreciate the flexibility.  Not every week starts on Sunday or Monday.

[KcKhaos]

Please add the feature to be able to choose the start day for your 7 day report, other than Monday. Currently we are not able to even choose Sunday for the report, it automatically does Monday, even if you have your app/dashboard to start the week is on Sunday. So the numbers never match up. 

And for me as an example. My gym schedule is Sunday to Thursday. So having the week start on Sunday tells me how I did for that week. But if the report starts on Monday it is now missing a day from this week and including a day from my next week.

please can we have a 7 day week to choose from where our new week starts ie those of us who are using fitbit to help us with our weight loss can sync the week with the day we have to weigh in etc 

[DianneC]

Currently in advanced settings you can change the day you start your week on but the only options are currently Sunday or Monday, I follow a plan and I weigh in etc on a Friday so my week essentially starts on a Friday so I'd like to be able to set my Fitbit to start on a Friday or any other day of the week should I change when I do my weigh in etc.

My Charge 3 on advanced setting says start exercise day Sunday or Monday.  I am on Weight Watchers and my weight in day is Tuesday so I would like my exercise week to coincide with Weight Watchers - Tuesday to Tuesday. Is this possible.

Hello great Fitbit community.

As we all know, Fitbit users are all around the world. And different region have different requirements. For me, starting day of the week is Sunday, so I have my dite plan, workout plan everything is tide with Sunday as the starting day. 

Unfortunately, Fitbit weekly progress report is considers Monday as starting day, and there is no way to modify that, even though from Fitbit app I can choose starting date for my data, but it doesn't affect weekly report. 

It's a bit annoying, that is having everything on schedule, except for this important weekly report. 

Hope you find it useful, and thank you

Hi @D7AN, thanks for taking the time to share why you would like to see this option on your weekly report. This feature suggestion already exists, so I’ve moved your post here. This is not currently planned at this moment. You can keep adding your votes to this suggestion so we can keep tracking this request overtime. Learn more about how Fitbit decides what suggestions get released in our FAQs. I hope to see you around.

Currently you can only start your week on Sunday or Monday for IOS.  I saw a previous suggestion to allow the week to start any day of the week to sync up with other programs.  I wanted to vote and add a comment but the posts seem to be locked.  I would really love the ability to do this.   It makes it difficult to line up my WW week, which starts on a different day.  Please consider adding this feature.  Thanks!
