Miles instead of km?

Anyone have any idea if the 'who's near' distance units can be changed from miles to km? It being in miles makes everyone seems closer than they actually are!

Couldn't see an option not anything in other forums.

Danke!

It's subjective.

If you use km it's in km.

Your reach should never exceed your grasp.

I'd imagine it's because it's a UK site and they still use miles as a unit of distance

The other fab site uses minutes for people close by

You are correct..it's more my perception that they are closer when I see the number in miles.

Naas which is South West of Dublin


"I still can't figure out feet inch and centimeters...

It’s approximately 43,804878, 250ml Lynx cans from Ireland to Africa (which is obviously the best scent, hence the measurement).

Hope this clears things up………
