I just bought a charge 4 to replace my Alta HR. I have never used the Fitbit app to track my run and have used runkeeper for over 10 years. I have well over 1800 runs in runkeeper and I occasionally run ~5 miles without my phone. For these runs I’m hoping to use the charge 4’s built in GPS then transfer it to my phone/ runkeeper later. Is this possible?

Well.. I haven’t used my run keeper at all this week. Only used Fitbit. I’m trying to calculate my stride since fitbit calculates distance and pace from that when not using my phone.
I opened my runkeeper and ALL the runs that show up in Fitbit automatically show in runkeeper without doing anything extra
I do have my runkeeper app to allow data from Fitbit on though.

@Aaron_006 A warm welcome to the Fitbit Community. Thanks for getting in touch about this.
I'm glad to hear that you replaced your Alta HR for a Charge 4.
If your Fitbit and Runkeeper accounts are linked Fitbit will sync steps, calories, sleep and weight. At this time, activities won't sync between them. However, we have more integrations that will allow you to sync GPS data such as Strava, learn more about our integrations in this thread.
I'll be around if you have any additional questions.

I have a similar question to this. I have a versa and use strava. Can I continue to use strava and then manually import my runs into runkeeper, so I can use both apps?

@Jumbled_Purple Hey there. Thanks for getting in touch about this.
You could sync your Fitbit and Strava account and your GPS activities will sync between them. In regards to Runkeeper and Strava, I would contact Runkeeper for more information about the data that's going to sync between them.
I'll be around if you have any additional questions.

Thank you. I haven’t tried it yet but I’m going to make a Strava account so I can transfer my runs that I just run with the Fitbit.... then sync my Strava and runkeeper app.
