How do I stop Versa to asking me to turn on GPS?

[Leoconnor]

I’ve looked through multiple threads and I’m still unable to find an answer. How do you stop Fitbit from consistently asking me to turn on the GPS?! I don’t want it turned on “always” 

please help, I’m beyond annoyed !

its asked me 2x while writing this post!

@Leoconnor Welcome to the Community. Sorry for the delayed reply. 

Thanks for the details mentioned. I appreciate that you mentioned how this situation has made you feel. 

Your Fitbit Versa has connected GPS which means that when you're tracking an activity, it will try to connect it to your phone in order to track your activity using GPS. Learn more about it by checking this article: How do I use GPS on my Fitbit device? 

If you keep receiving this, could you attach a picture to your next reply?

Keep me posted.

I’m seeing it’s still not working for anyone .. I’m aware of what the purpose of GPS is. I just don’t want to use the feature. EVERY SINGLE TIME I open the app it asks me to turn it back on .. I have said no, reset Bluetooth, reset the watch, etc etc .. and yet it still continues .. I just want it to stop asking, if I wanted it on, I would say yes..

@Leoconnor Thank you for the screenshot attached. 

The Fitbit app asks if you'd like to turn on the GPS because this allows your Versa to sync. Since you'd like to remove it, it's recommended to change the app settings and set it to turn it on only when using the app, this way the pop up message won't show every time you open it. 

Have a great week.
