I mainly use my fitbit versa for swimming. I'm very happy fit the swim tracking.

But today I went for a bike ride. Wanted to do something else. When I came home I noticed that there was no gps tracking. Is it possible to connect the device to gps? How do I do that?

Hello @DianaPatricia did you manually start the bike exercise recording on your wrist and have your phone with you? Auto detected bike rides will not turn on the gps.

Yes I did. I went to the exercise meny, picked bike and pressed start. The phone was with me all the time, ver close to the watch.

Then I would ask if the Versa showed that it got a good gps connection?
