Choose how dates and weights are shown
Pick a date style and a metric or imperial weight for the whole app — independent of your device settings, applied everywhere at once.
Pick how dates and weights read across the app, on top of whatever your device is set to.
Date format
On the Settings screen, tap Date format.
- Tap the style you want.
System default matches your device's own date setting. The next three are fixed styles shown with today's date as the example: month/day/year, day/month/year and year-month-day. The last one spells the month's short name in the app's language, with day and month in the order your device's region uses.
Every date on screen switches to your choice right away, and it stays after you close the app.
Weight format
On the Settings screen, tap Weight format.
- Tap Metric or Imperial.
Metric shows weights in grams, switching to kilograms at 1,000 g. Imperial shows ounces, switching to pounds at 16 oz.
Tip: A weight you type into a field follows the same choice — grams for Metric, pounds for Imperial.
