Controlling decimal places in Health app??

Question

Controlling decimal places in Health app??

When entering weight manually in the Health app, one decimal place is allowed. I just purchased an Etekcity bluetooth connected bathroom scale that feeds its data to Health nicely. Those numbers have TWO decimal places, which is unnecessary (and probably not really accurate, as I doubt that a $20 scale is that precise). Does anyone know how to set the decimal places in the weight section of the Health app to show (and round to) only one (tenths) and not two (hundredths)?

Hello bobfromweatogue,

You cannot edit the entries for weight in the Health app. However, you may find a setting for this in the Etekcity app, if that's what you're using to track your weight in the Health app.

If you'd like to edit these entries in the future, we'd suggest providing Apple with your feedback here: Product Feedback - Apple

Keep in mind, Apple reviews all feedback, but you may not hear back on any given. Apple does not request unsolicited ideas.

Hoping this helps out.

Take care.

I just found that there IS a decimal place, but it's not highlighted by a white rectangular field, as are the numbers, so I missed it at first.

I'm actually answering a different question, I just realized, which was about having a decimal place at all. Too lazy to go back and search for the other question, but I hope this helps someone!
