This one is for you, @hotdogsladies.

FAQ:
1) This is a proof-of-concept; no promises
2) I don't know when it'll ship, if I can even get it production-ready
3) Data coverage (Wikidata) is okay but not stellar; not all actors will have their heights shown
4) I'll try to use sensible units for countries that aren't idiots like us

I think I've got units working for countries that make sense.

This is all based on your setting in Settings β†’ General β†’ Language & Region β†’ Measurement System.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ/πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ get feet/inches.
The rest of the world gets cm.

I genuinely don't know how this will play in πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦, so, uh, good luck, northern friends? 😬

@caseyliss The Apple Watch hiking units are tied to the same setting and it took me so long to work out why my walks were defaulting to yards and not meters.

I changed it ok, but now all my driving distances in CarPlay are in km πŸ₯΄. Kinda just wish the UK would finish the move to metric.

It’s the right choice for the app though. Is it something you could tap to switch between the units maybe?

@martinbuckler @caseyliss You can actually change the workout units independently in the watch app: Settings->Workout->Units of Measure
