Hello, I’ve seen this question asked before although all those threads seem to be in 2017/18 so I want to see if there are any updates:
wanting to know if Fitbit ( ionic) has the ability to share your live location and status with Fitbit friends whilst your on a run, using the run feature. Not for safety purposes, but for your Fitbit friends to be able to track your location, pace, kilometers, laps etc in real time, for fun and collaboration and teamwork purposes. If no, does Garmin have this feature? Given it’s been so long since this feature was requested and voted, it might be time to switch to Garmin if it’s not available with Fitbit.
