When I set my Fitbit exercise to "walk" today it didn't sync to GPS (it didn't even try). I had my iphone in my pocket and the Fitbit app was open during my walk. The walk was tracked but the miles were incorrect. Can anyone tell me how to sync with my GPS to track distance now, post-device update? I use this feature almost daily.

This Worked ---> Found an answer on Reddit. I'll let you know if it works: I had this issue and figured it out. Click on walk on your Fitbit. Then when you’re on the screen with the play button, scroll up, you’ll see “set a goal, set laps, settings: heart zone, GPS (cursor should be to the right for on, it’ll probably be to the left which means it’s off) https://www.reddit.com/r/fitbit/comments/1f2r64i/inspire_3_gps_not_working_on_walk_since_most/
