Versa 4 won't track my GPS data accurately

I noticed that the GPS on the maps on the phone works better than the GPS on my Fitbit versa 4. So I didn’t know if that was something that was going to be fixed. Because I would like to be able to track through my Fitbit.

Hi there, @SunsetRunner. Thanks for stopping by in the Fitbit Community Forums and sharing the details about the inconvenience with your Versa 4.

Fitbit devices use the formula below to calculate distance. Your stride length is determined by your height and sex. Steps x Stride Length = Distance Traveled

Please note when you track an activity with GPS, your device calculates your distance using GPS data rather than steps. If you begin moving before you get a GPS signal, your device calculates distance using your steps until GPS connects.

To update your stride length, track a run with GPS or measure your stride length manually. For more information, see Can I change my stride length in my Fitbit account?
