Since the app update adding the stride length as an automatic adjustment, my distance is way off when using connected GPS. The problem is I don't know what Fitbit was using before for my stride length. At least before it was only off about .06 for very 1/2 mile. Just now I did a mile and Fitbit captured it as .26. HELP

It shouldnt be using your stride length to calculate distance while using connected GPS. But I've noticed that since the "update", connected GPS doesnt stay connected.
