Weight ‘Change’ calculation is incorrect in Garmin Connect App (IOS)

Former Member over 5 years ago

Every day I weigh in on the Garmin Scales and my IOS Connect App gives me the data including a ‘Change’ field which I can only assume is the weight change since the previous day/weigh-in. However, this calculation is incorrect every day. Any ideas? Thank you. Photo below:

I have the same issue, hoping the next version of the app rectifies the problem!

I looked at my values and they are all right. However, since you posted your query to the GC Mobile Android forum, I am on Android, of course, so as most other people comming here. Additionally I am using metric system. I tried switichng ot the "statute" and "statute UK", and the results are all right then too. On the other hand the values are then in pounds, not in stones+pounds. I do not see the possibility to use stones+pounds on the Android app, so I guess it is specific to the iOS version. I can only recommend posting your query to the GCM iOS forum, instead of here.

Thank you. I have moved the post. I am hoping someone knows the answer. Interesting that the bug isn’t on Android.

Just a tip for localizing better the bug - try switching to the metric units, and see whether the daily change values are displayed then correcly, or whether the wrong values remain wrong even in that way.

In Metric, the calculation is fine. It is incorrect in 'Statue' and 'UK Statue'.

Occasionally, but it's not typically part of their workflow. Always best to report any issues via the Garmin Support site, if you're not getting a resolution here.

I just realised that the issue is on the Garmin Connect website too! Weight change always shows as either 0lbs, 1.4lbs or 2.8lbs - bizarre. Same error if I change to KG.
