If I start an exercise session on my charge hr and I want the app to track my gps location. Do I also need to start the exercise session on my app. Also vice versa. If I start an exercise session on my app, will it automatically start the session on my phone?

Hello @DABRAM and welcome aboard to our community! Note if you are going to user the GPS feature (MobileRun) I recommend to not start an activity on your tracker. The activities on your tracker will ha priority and this information will be take in consideration before the GPS data. If you want to track your course with the GPS just use your tracker and activate the feature. If you wear your tracker while using MobileRun, the steps, active minutes, and calories burned that you see on your Fitbit dashboard come from the tracker. Otherwise your phone is used to calculate distance, elevation, and pace for your walk, run, or hike.

 

Hope this helps and see ya around. Robot wink
