When sharing dashboard information the units change from Km to Miles

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

When you share the dashboard it changes the unit of distance from km to mile automatically without changing the number of the distance.

i.e. If you walked 1.2 km in your dashboard then clicked on share button, it will change 1.2 km to 1.2 mile!

Hello @AmrFit, thanks for joining us, it's great to see new faces around! Smiley Happy

 

This seems like a very odd situations. Would it be possible for you to send me a screenshot of your daily stats and another one of how they're being displayed when you try to share them? That will be very helpful for me to investigate this further.

 

Thank you for your patience and understanding, I'll be waiting for your reply!

I have the same problem.  I am a fairly new user and tried to post my activity and found that the system turned my kilometres into miles and therefore the distance was totally overstated.

I have the same problem as well.  Just discovered this today when I went to post today's activity.  Very weird.  I have an Alta, if that makes any difference.

Has this been rectified as yet because mine does the same as @ 25 Sep 2017 and I see this thread has been going a while?
