I’ve just switched from Alta HR to Versa which I think is great however GPS seems to take so long to connect. The quickest it’s connected so far is 8 minutes. Should it really take this long?

No, it usually takes about 30 seconds for me for the Versa to initially connect to the Smarphone in "connected GPS" mode. But then it keeps losing connection every few minutes, making the feature useless and unreliable.

Once connected I don’t seem to have a problem it’s just getting connected I’m having issues with. So frustrating as I’m sure your problem is too
