Ability to use both kilograms and pounds in customisation field.

My gym has equipment from several different vendors. Sometimes the equipment measures in pounds and on other machines it measures in kilos. This makes it difficult to specify what machines I can use as if the app is set to kilos, I can't enter that on a machine that uses Lbs. If we could specify in an exercise that this particular machine uses Lbs and not kilos, that would be quite useful for me. 

I have my squat rack weights that are in lbs while my adjustable dumbbells are in kg. The app lets me choose one or the other, so though I have it set for lbs, when I go to the dumbbell weights, I have created a separate chart on paper that lets me do the closest adjustment. It’d be great if the app let you choose lbs or kg by device rather than for one for the whole app or if there were an option to express the weight in “50 lbs/25 kg”.

Another vote for this.

I am in the UK and so my barbell plates are in KG.

However the only decent adjustable dumbbells on the market are American so my dumbbell weights are in lbs.

The dumbbells do have markers on them to give approximate kg values but it's always slightly off what it should be and so the precise and accurate progressive overload that is the whole point of the Dr Muscle AI is compromised.

I would welcome the ability to select different kg/lbs for plates, dumbbells and pulleys!

Thanks to all the team at Dr Muscle for a great app.

Another vote for this. I live in North America but often travel to places where weight is measured in kgs. It would be great if DrMuscle could simply display weight as "x kgs / y lbs". There would no longer be a need to choose between the two.

yes please this is needed, the ability to swap back and forward at any time between KGs and pounds, e.g. when doing the workouts at different gyms or on a different cable stack. Not just set per exercise, but swap on-the-go mid workout.
