Measure conversions

All of my settings are to imperial but when you zoom in close where the altitude lines are, these numbers are metric. Is there any way to fix this? Mauna Kea, Hawaii is over 15,000 ft and you show 3855 or so.

The base map in Windy displays elevation in International System (SI) units. It is not possible to change it to Iimperial units. However, in the browser version settings, you can enable the "Show elevation in weather picker" option to display it in meters and feet.

@idefix37 other apps convert to your phone's default. Not sure why you can't do the unless you are just storing one large picture. It's not something paying members should have to deal with! And don't tell me most use the other measurements. Imperial was first and you guys changed to something you made up because you like 100 or something!
