Hello, I just got my Sense last week, after almost 3 years using the Ionic. 

 

My adjustment has overall so far has been pretty good - however, I am still trying to figure out some settings, as well as which is best clock face to use;  widgets;  how to go back to the previous screen (without hitting the button on the side which takes you back to the clock screen); why my battery seems to drain fairly quickly; etc.  So if you have any helpful hints, please let me know!

 

One item that I can not figure out. On the exercise app - (1) can you turn gps the on/off?  (2) how do you adjust the settings - for example in swimming laps - yards vs. meters; (50 vs. 25).

On the exercise app you can toggle GPS for the activity which uses GPS (Walking, Running...). When you tap the exercise app then the activity, scroll down before you tap the start. You can see the various options which includes the switch for GPS.

For starters, Fitbit Sense Manual (pdf) .

On some (all) exercise choices, you can scroll down to see more options.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
