Maps not showing correctly on exercise preview.

If I get my Charge properly paired with my iPhone app at the start of a walk or ride, I have no trouble with it mapping my ride and fully analyzing it.

However, for some reason, several times last week the feed on my iPhone shows a route other than the one I actually took for a particular activity. But when I click into the activity to see the details, the map shown there is correct.

Why would my activity use one map on the the feed and another (the correct one) in the detail log?

I have same issue (ios 11, iphone 6s, blaze).  Noticed it after either an ios update or app update.  Seemed to have solved it by logging out of the app (logout button at bottom of account page) and logging back in.  This appears to force the app to resync/download the maps and previews and they are now matched correctly. Like other users the detailed gps maps were all correct, but the associated preview on the exercise screen were mismatched.   I did not need to force close the app or restart phone.  Hope that helps.

I appreciate you have reported to me this issue is still affecting the preview maps on your activities. At this moment I don't have a specific timeframe for when this issue will be resolved but please be assured our team is actively working towards resolving it. In the meantime, please try the workaround provided by @Bryanmw:

 

  • Force-quit the Fitbit app, then open it. If the maps are still showing incorrectly:
  • Log out from the Fitbit app, restart your phone and log back in.

Thanks again for your patience and understanding, if there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply, I'll be happy to help.
