Connected GPS automatically turns ON in Walk Exercise even though I had set it to OFF

Once set to OFF, the connected GPS should stay OFF until manually changed.

Hey @kdputah, it is great to see you around more often! Sounds very odd that the connected GPS turns ON by itself. Have you also noticed if happens the same backwards? If it turns OFF when is ON? in the meantime, let me suggest you to restart your Versa. Maybe this is just a glitch and by doing that, it can be fixed. 

I'll be around!

No, it never happens in the reverse. And within the hour after setting it
to OFF, it is back to ON when I check it. And in the Fitbit app on my
phone, the connected GPS is always to OFF.

I have had my Versa for two weeks, and this has been happening since the
first time I went walking and turned the GPS setting to OFF in the watch
Walk exercise. Do I have a faulty Versa?

I figured out the problem. Although I had turned off the Connected GPS on the watch Walk exercise, I needed to go to the phone app/Dashboard, scroll down and select Exercise Shortcuts, then click on Walk Exercise Cues. At that point there is a GPS setting that overrides the setting on the watch. That is why the changed setting on the watch was being overridden every time that I changed it.
