Hi @Yvonne10, it's nice to see you again posting here in the Community Forums, welcome back! Sorry for the delay in responding your post.

I appreciate the details that were shared in your post. To better assist you with this situation, can you please let me know which Android mobile device you're currently using to use the connected-GPS feature of your Versa? Also, when was the first time you experienced this and how many times since then? If you haven't already done so, please check our help article: Why isn't GPS working on my Fitbit device?

Looking forward to your reply, let me know how it goes.
