Map App

[Rockkid]

Today i downloaded the Map App for my ionic. While in my house and on wifi, it pin pointed my position perfectly. However, when I went for a snowshoe and tried using the app but it did not reposition the map but it still showed my home position. Please help.

Is GPS enabled?

[Rockkid]

Not sure. How do I check?

Go to Fitbit.com dashboard and pick the Ionic setting and GPS

Thanks. I just turned on my gps. To late to give it try today, so I will tomorrow. Again thanks.

Where do I find a map app

[Rockkid]

Go,to,your Fitbit app and select your ionic watch on the top left corner. Select apps and scroll down until you see map,app and then install.

How do you find the fitbit map app to use? I am looking for a decent map app to give me directions when travelling around new cities so I don't always have to pull out my phone.

I deleted it. I found it too slow and with the small screen it was hard to
enlarge the viewing area. I haven’t tried it since, so I am not sure if the
app got upgraded or not.

There isn't one to give directions yet. The map app currently available is pretty limited; it shows the map but downloads over the Internet make it painfully slow to use.

I have a Fitbit Ionic and I can't even get it to resolve a map in my own house!  Takes forever.  I just want to be able to click the button and have it give me a Google-Maps headsup of where I am, as the app promised.  It's painful.  Yes, I have the Ionic's GPS turned on.  Help please!  PS if the developer is watching this thread, let him know that the link to his email in the "contact developer" link is broken....
