Hello, just got my charge 3 today.  On my phone when I go to Settings >Fitbit>Location it is set to 'Ask' and won't let me change to any other option.  It will let me put a tick next to the other options but always reverts back to 'Ask' when I go back.  I want to set it to 'Always' so I can map my runs.

 

I've tried re-starting the phone, the charge 3 and also turning bluetooth on and off but no luck.

 

Any ideas?

 

thanks

Hello and welcome to the Fitbit Community @olisue 

 

I may have found a solution for you. (fingers crossed) Let’s start by tapping your exercise tile in the Fitbit app. If you don’t have the exercise tile showing in the main page of the Fitbit app (where all your current challenges are) then tap Discover at the bottom left, then tap Health & Fitness Stats, then find exercise and tap it. Look to the bottom and tap “Add to today”.... that will pop you back to the main page. Now find the exercise tile and tap it. Look to the upper left and tap the stopwatch icon. Now tap “Enable Location Services” , then open settings and make your selection. (If it doesn’t let you select always then select when using the app) .....now go back to the Fitbit app and answer WiFi prompt. Now  go directly to your iOS setting and now you can change it to always. Gosh I hope all this makes sense.
