Hi everyone,
I am having some trouble with the Google Maps integration on my Fitbit Charge 6.
While the turn-by-turn directions show up correctly on the tracker's display, the device does not vibrate and the screen does not wake up automatically when a new turn or instruction is approaching. This makes it very difficult and unsafe to use while driving, as I have to manually tap the screen or rotate my wrist constantly to see the next move.
Here is what I have checked so far:
Do Not Disturb / Sleep Mode: Both are turned OFF on the tracker.
Permissions: Google Maps has notification and location permissions active on my phone.
App Settings: Navigation is enabled within the Google Maps section of the Fitbit app.
Vibration: Set to "Strong" in the tracker settings.
Goal: I want the Charge 6 to vibrate and the display to light up automatically every time there is a new direction/turn, just like a standard notification.
Is there a specific setting I’m missing to enable haptic feedback and "auto-wake" specifically for Maps navigation?
Thanks in advance for your help!
