Frequently when I open the Fitbit App on my iPhone a message box is displayed suggesting I need to "Set Allow Location Access to Always to track your exercise with GPS. Turn on Bluetooth Sharing to start a GPS exercise from your tracker."

 

Problem is, I do have Bluetooth Sharing selected- but I have chosen "While Using the App" (not "Always"). 

 

This has been going on for approximately two months. I don't want to select "Always". How do I disable this constant, nagging message?

 

Thanks.
