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.

Wow this topic is 2 years old.

Seems a simple thing, changing the app week start day to match what the user prefers...

Get on this, Fitbit.

Thanks!

This seems like it's easy to fix, considering it has already been done for iOS and Windows. It's also not exactly an 'idea' in my opinion but something that should have been implemented already. It makes no sense to be able to start the week on monday (which should be the standard anyway imho) on the dashboard and then see wrong stats in the app. Please fix this, thank you.

They obviously don't review this forum.

It has been on their radar for over 2 years. ASAP is not part of Fitbit's
vocabulary.

Please let Monday be a start of the week option.

FITBIT, can't you at least give your loyal customers an estimated fix
date??? We've been more than patient for 2+ years. Give us some indication
that you care about us.

Why is this feature taking over 2 years for android, when its already available on iphone...

Hello,
Please make this happen on the Android app.
Even on the web dashboard I don't find where to change the starting day of the week...

Thank you in advance for this update

It is illogical why on the web dashboard it is possible to change the starting day  of the week to Monday and in the Android application it's not. People use to carry their mobiles and not computers in their pockets. It's being complained about for more than 2 years and there is still no change; one could call this a severe ignorance. Fitbit folks, I have an idea/solution for you. Stop selling your products outside the USA if you are for so long unable to meet requirements of your non-US customers from whom you earn money.

just for the record, many of us in the US want this change. Calendars not withstanding, I find that a Monday start is much more comfortable for me.  I deleted my phone app some time ago.  I really want to replace my pebble watch and I would love to do so with one of the fitbit ones, but I shan't until the app on android is as capable as the web and iPhone.

In this modern, high tech Century, why is it not possible on an Android phone to change the start of the week to a Monday, rather than a Sunday on the Fitbit App?

There is no excuse for not being able to this.

Maybe if we all start calling? I've called and am thinking of making it a daily task.

P.S. I'm in the US and my week starts on Monday. Sunday is the 7th day of the week, therefore the weekend. It's so odd that the Android app doesn't match the Fitbit reporting cycle! If it can't be customized, seems it would match our weekly reports.

Hello.  Any updates on when this change will happen?  All platforms should match, this change should be a no brainer for the developer.  I'm also in the US and Monday is the "start of the week" unless you work a rotating shift job like a police officer.  Everyone has a different opinion on when they want to manage their workout week so this needs to be an option that carries across all platforms. Thank you!

I would like to see more options for week start day, I have the option for Sunday and Monday. I would like to use Tuesday or Wednesday as my start day as I give my weekly status to my dietician on Tuesday's, my Fitbit reports do not work for me since the report has the wrong days on it. Thanks, Tim Waybright

Still no update?

 

Well...

...one day, during one of internal hackathons (if they exist in FitBit) some developer will pick it up and fix it. I believe in it! 🙂

Let's not be naive. I posted the change 18 months ago. Not even a reply.
One wonders why Fitbit is in big troubl€.
