After last Fitbit app update (a couple of days ago) my Fitbit app in iPhone starts in French.

Why? The same update in iPad did not result turning app into French (English remained). I do not speak nor understand French very much, and I would like Fitbit to tell me how will I get the app in English again, or release an update that would fix this annoying problem.

@icpps2 Thanks for popping by the forums! The general rule is that if your phone is set to a non-English language, your Fitbit app should follow suit, provided that this is a language supported by Fitbit. 

 

This sounds like a bit of a fluke, but I'd recommend verifying your locale on the Dashboard or within your app and making any adjustments necessary. This should rectify the issue you're experiencing; sounds like it's simply an erroneous entry. 

 

I hope this is helpful to you! As an aisde...as a French speaker, I've gotta agree with @SunsetRunner that it's a marvelous language.

Tres Bien, Thank You, Emily. Changing language in iPhone to English, and the back to Finnish made the trick.

But there must be something wrong with the Fitbit update that changed the language in the first place.

Hello @SunsetRunner, welcome to the Fitbit Community! It's nice to see you around @icpps2, I'm glad to know your issue has been resolved, thank you for the update! Smiley Happy

 

@SunsetRunner, on your phone, please go to Settings > General > Language & Region (Réglages > Général > Langue et région) and check that the language is set up to French. If it is, change it to English and then back to French. After that, open the Fitbit app, the language should have been updated now. Smiley Wink

 

Give it a try and keep me posted if you need anything else!
