Shared routes only show in Imperial system

Whenever I create a route and share it with the public, everyone can only see the details in imperial system which is not useful at all for most of them. How can non-members see the information in meters and kilometers?

  Hi,

  For users without an account, the stats on gaiagps.com will show in imperial if their browser language is set to English, and metric if set to any other language.

  To change the setting, they could create their own account to set their preference.

  Hi Ashli

  I have my own account and want to see data in metric.  I keep changing my profile to metric but next time I log in it reverts to imperial.  Any suggestions?

  Thanks

  Hi Castle,

  What browser are you using?

  Hi Ashli

  I'm using Chrome Version 63.0.3239.108 (Official Build) (64-bit). 

  Based on your reply to KavehMazloomi I decided to check the language setting.  The language is set to English (US).  I added English (Canada) to my language list and moved it to the top in terms of preference.  However, the option to "Display Google Chrome in this language" is grayed out.  Appears I am unable to change it.

  Is this why Gaia keeps reverting to imperial numbers?

  Cheers

  Hi again.  I've logged in and out a few times just now and the measurement setting is staying at metric.  It may be resetting overnight.  I'll let you know.

  Cheers

  Hi Ashli

  My account is staying in metric units now.  Either the change I made in Chrome's language setting or adding a Canadian location to my profile seems to have done the trick.

  Closing this conversation.

  Cheers
