Fitbit Charge 6 pace & distance different from Fitbit app

I’ve noticed that my Fitbit app seems to log extra distance and at a faster pace than others who I run with. I decided to log a run both on my Charge 6 and on the app as well. The Charge 6 showed that I ran 9.44 miles at a 10’00” pace. The Fitbit app showed I ran 10.06 miles at a 9’24” pace. To make matters worse, the call outs were based on the app data while I thought they were based on my watch data, so I stopped when I thought I’d run 10 miles, but maybe I only ran 9.44 miles. How do I fix this? I’m training for my first half marathon and want it to be accurate. At the very least, can I set the call outs to he based on the watch data? Thank you!

I've been running with Charge 6 since it was released. Distance and pace are always wrong and yesterday it lost two runs (never synced to the app, that part of timeline is missing also for HR). The only fix - get proper runner's watch not a toy.
