Start week on Monday on Android App

So sorry, USA, but you are the only ones who start the week on Sunday. For the rest of the world, we would really appreciate if we can change the settings on our Android app for the week to start on the first day of the week, namely Monday. I know you can do it on the dashboard, but I'd like to start the week on Mondays, also on the app, as this is my primary go-to place to check stats. 

 

Thanks.

Please give us the option or change the app to start the week on Monday. It makes no sense to have that ability on the web, but not on the app, which so gets so much more use.

I have reason to start my week on a Friday.

Why not just have the day of week as a user preference saved with the user settings and base the day of week and associated reports on that setting. 

All other data is stored and this is easily programmable.

Would seem like a good upgrade option to me.

Cheers

Hi all, this suggestion being considered by the team but I do not have any dates or a firm commitment at the moment. Watch this space for any updates.

Thanks Liz. The "team" should consider this update a priority as it has
been on the table for years.

You're welcome! I work in customer service and i cannot stand situations
when customers who take the time to share their needs are not listened to!
Not that you have to act on every customer request but in my book you must
acknowledge them and be thankful they care enough to ask!!
That's what i tell my team and insist they do. I do recommend you all to
use twitter though and tag @fitbitsupport. I find this is more visible and
gets more attention! We will get there! Thanks to the community!

I would also like the android app to start the week on Monday.....I like to get my steps in (100,000 plus) from Monday to Saturday and use Sunday as a rest day and only worry about getting to 10,000 that day.

It has been two years and more since this was requested and you are still considering it? Why not just fix this and implement the feature. You should listen to your user base. If you are not doing anything for 2 years that means it is not into consideration at all you are just neglecting the feature request.

Seriously?

2 years and 8 months this has been an issue.

W. T. H. fitbit? Pretty sad that Windows mobile allows you to start your week on a Monday but Android app doesn't.

 

Please fix this issue.

 

Thanks.

God forbid we dare to bother someone to implement a five-minute fix.

Please have the week day start on Monday. The weekly report should match with the fitbit app data.  Do we have any updates on this?

So after 2 and a half years they finally listened, and they removed my post calling their programmers lazy. Seems they finally decided to actually read this thread and listen to their customers.

Dunno about lazy... I was starting to think that they laid off all but one developer to hire hardware specialists. Nothing else could explain the lack of software support and the churning out of not fully functional devices with zero bugfix.
