Connected GPS not working on my Blaze

[dopplergaydar]

For the past few weeks my connected GPS has been getting worse and worse.  Finally, as of last week it seems to have bit the dust entirely.  It'll connect initially, but the GPS signal is weak.  It'll drop after a few seconds and will never come back up so I won't get accurate mileage or a map of my route.  For example yesterday I went on a bike ride and it didn't record my route or pace, just the duration and my heart rate.  I've spoken to Fitbit support and since my Blaze is JUST out of warranty (bought it on launch day) there's nothing they can do but offer me 25% off a new Fitbit, but I don't want a new Fitbit!  I just want mine to work.  I know tracking a workout on my phone will work and I'm guessing I'll just have to do this as a last resort, but I'd really prefer not to as I like having my phone secure in my pocket or my bike bag while I work out.

Any advice?

Running mine with I-phone 7 Plus and having same issues. Tired of resetting device, wishing I hadn’t spent that much money on this THING!!!!😩

yes it can be a big pain... are you also using the phone and blaze on the
same arm?

Yes, but I keep my phone on my bike, can’t get it to even connect to my phone outside and on the few occasions it does, it won’t stay connected.

that is really odd... I only ever had issues with mine while running. Is it
bluetooth that loses connection? or GPS? I would recommend removing the
device from your account and reinstalling the app to see if anything gets
better... aside from that, keep complaining to fitbit and they will replace
your device 😛
