Bluetooth sharing message constantly popping up

[Redwalker84]

This is not the first time I’ve had this problem. I don’t need Bluetooth sharing and gps on all the time. Why is this message constantly popping up EVERY TIME I open the app. Please make it stop.

Hi @Redwalker84  it won't stop because the Fitbit needs the bluetooth to upload the latest activity to the Fitbit server. If your bluetooth isn't on, then you won't be using many of the features of the app, so why not just log off?

Hi there
My Bluetooth is on all the time, I let Fitbit share when using the app. I don’t need a pop up message every time I open the app. It’s a recent development and I’m not the only one complaining about it. I just recently went from charge 2 to charge 4 but even before I switched it was doing it there too. It stopped for a while but started again. Just annoying to have to press no thanks all the time.
Appreciate your reply.

Yes!!! Having the same issue. I have Bluetooth connected, I just don’t want to use GPS all the time and it wastes my battery.

I just started using the app again this week after not using for a couple months. I don’t remember it popping up this much before! It’s insane!!! It’s everytime I open the app or even switch between apps in my phone. I’ve searched how to get rid of it but everyone says you can’t, that it’s a google analytics thing. If you figure it out please let me know! Otherwise it’s making me crazy enough to switch to another calorie counting app which I hate to do because I like having every thing in one place.

Hi, I think I figured it out. I deleted the Fitbit app, then downloaded it again and it stopped. Hope this works for you.
Good luck.

Alas, I spoke to soon. It started popping up again this morning after my bike ride. I don’t understand why this is happening since charge 4 has gps and I’m not using the app as much. Wish this would get more attention. I don’t want to delete the app again.
