I got a Charge 3 and so far have only used it for weight training. Would try it soon on a bike ride. I have the background app refresh currently turned off. Do i need to toggle it on when i go out cycling?

@leftyseel   Yes.  See this help article for more details: How do I use GPS on my Fitbit device? 

 

I am also moving your post to the Other Charge tracker forum, a better fit for your question.
