I have the same issue. I have a galaxy note 10+ and I haven't been able to get rid of this notice since linking it with my fitbit versa.
I have tried disabling the notifications, that did nothing at all. I tried syncing my versa, restarting and syncing it again, it's still there. I restarted my phone, it disappeared for a while until I went for a walk in the morning. It's now 10pm and its still there.

I have the same issue I am a Google pixel 2. It's been eating my battery life since that has popped up.

I am experiencing the same issue, and have since I got my Fitbit (the Charge 3). It seems to happen at random intervals, but I can usually get rid of the notification by restarting my phone. This time, however, the notification has been up continuously now for about 2 days without stopping.
I have restarted my phone several times, and kept if off for several minutes before rebooting. I've disabled and re-enabled the GPS (the notification immediately pops up again). NOTHING is working to make this notification go away.
I've doublechecked that I have the latest version of the app (it's version 3.9.1, which according to the google play store, is the latest version, downloaded on the 1st of november).
My phone is the OnePlus 6, running on OxygenOS 9.0.9 (which I think is the latest version available for my phone).
I have to say I'm getting fairly frustrated at this point.
