Distance tracked with the Fitbit app is higher than other apps.

Hi, I have been using the nike run app for a while now and recently started use the fitbit app.

I have been noticing the distance is longer in the fitbit app, is there a solution?

Hello @LollD, have a warm welcome to the Fitbit Community, it's great to have you on board. 

Are you using a tracker when tracking a run or are you using MobileRun in the app? If you're using a tracker, which one are you using?

Please remember that  Fitbit devices calculate distance by multiplying your walking steps by your walking stride length and multiplying your running steps by your running stride length. We estimate your stride lengths using your height and gender. If you have a Fitbit Blaze, Fitbit Charge 2, or Fitbit Ionic and track one or more runs using on-board or connected GPS, the trackers evaluate that data to automatically update your running stride length.

If you prefer to measure your walking and running stride lengths yourself and enter them manually, see How do I measure and adjust my stride length?

Note that when you're tracking an activity with GPS, Fitbit calculates your distance using GPS data rather than steps. If you begin moving before you get a GPS signal, the tracker will calculate distance using steps and stride length as described above until a GPS signal is found.

I hope this resolves your inquiry, if there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply.
