No, @Conor78, if you have the Charge 2, you must use the RUN Workout Mode in order to use the Connected GPS feature. Repeatedly press the side button on the tracker until the first Exercise Mode, such as WALK or RUN, shlows on the display. If it is not on RUN, tap the screen until it displays RUN and then press and hold the side button until it vibrates. That will start the RUN Exercise mode with Connected GPS, and it will track the run until you press & hold the button again to stop it.

 

If you just run without the above steps, it will record the run, but will not use the Connected GPS.
