Account Units not honoured when displaying Tracklog info #bug

[Andy W]

I have the Units in my account profile set to Imperial (mi, GB):

When I display a Tracklog using the website, the minimum and maximum height use Imperial units:

However, the app displays the same Tracklog height details in Metric:

@Andy-W No bug! The answer is as logical as it is simple: both the website (Routeplanner) and the app have a settings menu. According to the images you attached, you have the distance unit set to metric in the app and to imperial (GB or US) in the Routeplanner.

@nick-carthew so would it make sense that imperial GB does show metric for altitude?

But then @Andy-W would expect feet for altitude when using imperial US.

I have no clue here what is expected cause even the countries using imperial aren’t consistent. It’s always a 9mm gun but never a 0.3 inch gun

No. The settings are the same in both and I would expect them to be as it is a single account for MRA.

@Andy-W Okay, didn't expect that. I can only reproduce this when settings are different... or am I overlooking something?

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Rob-Verhoeff altitudes within the app are always displayed in meters it seems

[Rob Verhoeff]

@Corjan-Meijerink Yes, I see it now. Definitely not something I would have noticed like that. I had only changed the notation in the planner and then saw that the app was showing meters. But apparently, it is a bug.

@Andy-W sorry about the misunderstanding

[Corjan Meijerink]

For me it’s just not always understanding when imperial uses what unit

That’s why I asked @nick-carthew on the GB view. If the consensus is indeed that US imperial always want feet for altitude, sure thing

I would say it's about time they get used to metric, like we all are used to English. Do something in return!
