I have the app synced, but I've just been for a run and my map my run app tells me one distance and my Fitbit charge HR tells me a different one on the app - please tell me how to make sure Fitbit app is correct?

Hello @Nicki-noo, good to see you in our community. The difference in distance with your tracker is that will calculate distance by multiplying your walking steps and walking stride length. Similarly, your running steps are multiplied by your running stride length. This will not necessarily match a pre-measured distance, nor will it show exactly what a GPS device will show. To improve the distance on your Fitbit account you can always use a customize settings. If you want to enter your personal measurements, one user of the community @kaz181 shared the article to do this in the following post: How to measure my stride lenght.

 

Hope this helps and keep me posted how it goes.

I have the walking stride length set which I used map my run work out. But
does the running stride length change based on how fast your going?
