Toggl Track

Why cant I set my 'Start Week On" any day?

I work around mining/rosters, pay cycles or family rosters, my week or fortnight could start on either a WED/FRI/SAT.  
This makes it very annoying and prone to mistakes when your in Timer and Activity, trying to flick between the weeks or days to match jobs/tasks/start end times etc. because you cant view and edit a week as a week as per your current work schedule.  
surely we can get an option to make our weeks suit our business not Mon-Fri?

Currently, Toggl Track lets you change the first day of the week on your Profile page, but the available options don’t cover every possible starting day - so if your roster starts on a Wednesday, Friday, or Saturday, you may find it doesn’t match your needs. You can check what days are available by visiting your Profile page and looking at the First Day of the Week setting: [How to change the first day of the week? | Toggl Knowledge Base](https://support.toggl.com/how-to-change-the-first-day-of-the-week)

The ability to set a fully custom start day (any day of the week) to match mining rosters, pay cycles, or non-standard work schedules is not currently available in Toggl Track. That’s a genuinely useful idea, especially for industries with rotating or irregular rosters, and I’ll pass this feedback along to the product team.

Are you sure this is correct? I see every day of the week as an option in that setting:

I’m going to try this now — I work Monday-Friday, but my team reviews our time every second Thursday so I think this might give me better reporting.

I’m not, no. But I have been using Toggl for a long while so it’s possible the feature is grandfathered onto my free account.
