Open DerekCaelin opened 1 month ago

DerekCaelin commented 1 month ago

While most data collectors are comfortable working in the metric system, some users prefer to use inches and feet, rather than centimeters. Allow users to select their preferred units of measurement.

Requested during a usability test.

Relevant for US/Global Soil ID and monitoring app.

A user (Rancher Stewardship Alliance) requested this in a usability test. "I know meters are real, but is there any way it could be in feet?"
