GPS won't track accurate distance nor the map-Versa 2

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Hi, there! I'm using a Versa 2 and I recently upgraded my phone from a Moto G7 to a Google Pixel 4a 5g. On the Moto, GPS tracking worked just fine, the distance was accurate and the map was accurate. On the last two walks with the Pixel where I'm connected to my phone and GPS, the maps are just a single dot, and the distance is about 1/10th of a mile off (I measured my route on Google Maps). Location services are set to always on for the Fitbit app, and I'm making sure BT is turned on, and my Versa vibrates when it's connected. 

 

Not sure where to go from here, haha.

 

Thanks!

Hello @J_Andreoni 

Check also that the battery usage of the Fitbit app is set at "not optimized". I have a feeling that the phone terminates the app as soon as it goes in background.
