There are only a handful of Fitbits with built-in GPS. However, most of its other devices have the ability to connect to a GPS signal via your smartphone. Here’s what to do if you’re having trouble establishing a connection.
Troubleshooting Fitbits with Connected GPS
Those that run or cycle often appreciate the usefulness of built-in GPS. And while there are quite a few sports watches with this functionality, fitness bands with built-in GPS are few and far between.
The next best thing is Connected GPS. This is a fancy term meaning the device on your wrist can piggy-back on your smartphone’s GPS signal. The benefit of this is that your outdoor exercise stats will be more accurate, plus you get a map of the workout in the Fitbit smartphone app.
What to do if the Fitbit is unable to get a satellite signal
Those of us that have a watch with built-in GPS know that it can be very difficult at times to secure a connection. The same applies to Connected GPS – yes, the dreaded ‘Connecting…’ message!
Fitbit suggests you switch off Wi-Fi on the phone when using Connected GPS. Of course, the Bluetooth on your smartphone needs to be switched on in order for it to communicate with the device on your wrist. You can check whether this is the case by going into the Bluetooth settings on your phone.
Your phone needs to be within 30 feet of your device, and the Fitbit app should be open while you are tracking your workout. The wearable will vibrate to indicate that it found a GPS signal. How quickly this occurs depends on your surroundings. Tall buildings, dense forests or steep hills might all impede with your phone’s ability to find a GPS satellite.
Ideally, you want to wait until the signal is established before you start your exercise. Otherwise the step count will be used to estimate distance instead of GPS, and your workout data will be less accurate.
If you’re not getting a signal the first thing to do is to check that Connected GPS is switched on. On the Versa 1 or 2, this is done by tapping the gear icon on any exercise and making sure that GPS is listed and switched on. Similarly, on Charge 3 check that Use Phone GPS is listed and on for the particular exercise. On Charge 2 and Inspire range you will need to do this via the Fitbit app. Choose the Today tab/your profile/your device images/Exercise Shortcuts. Find the exercise and make sure Connected GPS is on.
Additional things you can try
Here are a few more things you can try if you’re still having problems obtaining a GPS signal:
- close and re-open the Fitbit app
- restart your smartphone
- go to the Location section in your smartphone’s settings and make sure Fitbit has permission to access these
- for Android smartphones, in your phones settings go to location, location method, and choose phone only
- other smart devices (such as headphones) may interfere with the Bluetooth signal, so you may want to try switching these off
Troubleshooting Fitbits with built-in GPS
But what if you are having problems securing connection on a device with built-in GPS? There are things you can do to help resolve this.
Charge 4 is the latest fitness band from the San Francisco wearables manufacturer. It’s main upgrade is the inclusion of built-in GPS. You won’t find many fitness bands with built-in GPS.
The previous editions only had Connected GPS. This means they require your smartphone in order to obtain a satellite signal.
No other Fitbit fitness bands have built-in GPS. But a couple of smartwatches do – Versa 3 and Sense. Or you could opt for the agening Ionic.
Using built-in GPS on a Fitbit
Using the built-in GPS is very simple. Open the Exercise app on your Fitbit and choose an activity such as walk, run, bike, golf or hike. These are the ones that support GPS tracking. The others don’t so there’s no point in trying.
Wait until the tracker establishes and connects to the satellite. Once the signal is there tap on the play icon to commence your workout.
There are three GPS settings you should be aware of. One is the built-in GPS which works as explained above. There’s also a Phone GPS setting which works as described above – via Connected GPS (by tapping into the GPS sensors on your smartphone). The final option is called Dynamic GPS. This uses the built-in GPS at the beginning of the workout, but if you have your phone with you it will revert to its sensors to map the route.
You might want to choose the second or third option to preserve battery life. This is done by going into the settings on Charge 4 and tapping on “GPS Settings”.
Of the three options, built-in GPS is much more convenient as it allows for true phone-free exercising outdoors.
What to do if built-in GPS on Fitbit doesn’t connect
As long as you are using built-in GPS and the connection is stable, your activity tracker will utilise that data to calculate distance, step count and other stats. If the connection is non-existent or drops, your tracker will refer to counting your steps to estimate these metrics.
There are a few things you can do to make sure Charge 4, Versa 3, Sense or Ionic establishes a connection quickly.
For starters, make sure you have a clear view of the sky. This will help with obtaining the signal. Avoid tall buildings, dense forests, steep hills. Even thick cloud cover can make obtaining a connection more difficult, but there’s nothing you can do about that.

It’s also a good idea to make sure that GPS is switched on. This is done by opening the Exercise app, choosing the exercise you want to track and swiping up. Make sure the setting is switched to “On”.
Other things you can do include making sure your Fitbit is topped up to at least 80% battery capacity. This is because using built-in GPS is battery draining.
The company says you should also avoid trying to start an exercise with GPS several times in a row. Apparently, that can cause issues.
There’s a 10 minute window to establish a GPS connection. If your device fails to do so, you’ll be presented with options to end the exercise, change the GPS mode or start the exercise again.
What to do if the built-in GPS connection of a Fitbit keeps dropping
Let’s say you managed to establish the connection and commence your workout. But the signal keeps dropping. For example, the GPS connection gets lost midway through your run. A number of users have reported this issue on Fitbit Community forums. This can be very frustrating as it will mess with the exercise data.
Those who have spoken to Fitbit Support report they’ve been told to restart the device. The other suggestions are along the lines the ones we have listed above such as making sure you have a clear view of the sky.
A Fitbit Moderator on the forum says the following.
“We are aware that some customers are reporting that during a GPS activity, the GPS connection may be lost.” and adds
“If normal troubleshooting steps are unsuccessful, we are working on a resolution and are sorry for any trouble. We appreciate your patience and look forward to getting you back on track.”
None of this works? Revert to Connected GPS.
Hopefully one of the above solutions will have resolved any problem you might be experincing with built-in GPS. No? A not-so-ideal workaround can be to revert to using the Phone GPS settings options. It won’t resolve the built-in GPS issue, but at least you’ll be able to put in that workout! And then hope for the best next time around.

If, on the other hand, you suspect your device is faulty, the other option is to contact Fitbit Support. They will create a case and further assist you. Or you could exchange the fitness band or smartwatch for another one in the store where you bought it.

Fitbit’s built-in GPS not working? GPS signal missing?
If the built-in GPS isn’t working on your Fitbit device, try these tips.
- Make sure the exercise you select allows for GPS tracking. Swipe on any exercise and check that Use Phone GPS is listed and set to On, and if available on your Fitbit, turn on GLONASS too (reduces battery life on your Fitbit.)
- Only activities where you cover physical distance outdoors, like a run, walk, hike, or bike ride, offer GPS tracking.
- Use these settings for best built-in GPS performance:
- GPS built-in.
- GLONASS on.
- Low-power GPS off.
- Charge your Fitbit to at least 80% before going out for your workout or activity.
- If using a metal band, switch to a fabric or elastomeric band and see if the GPS signal improves. There’s anecdotal evidence that metal bands and, in particular, any magnetic clasps or other parts interfere with GPS connections.
- Also, if you wear any jewelry made from metal, remove those, especially if you wear them on the same arms/hand as your Fitbit.
- Turn off GPS Low Power Mode.
- On your Fitbit, open the Settings app > GPS Settings and change GPS mode to Built-in GPS instead of Dynamic or Phone modes.
- Sync your Fitbit device to your phone’s Fitbit app before going out, and make sure All Day Sync is turned on inside the Fitbit app.
- Check if there is a firmware update for your Fitbit device and if so, update it.
- Force quit and then relaunch your phone’s Fitbit app to refresh its connection to your Fitbit. Do this before you go out without your phone.
- Restart your Fitbit device.
- Uninstall the Fitbit app on your paired phone, then reinstall it. Once done, perform a factory reset of your Fitbit device.
Fitbit’s Connected GPS not working? Or GPS signal missing?
If your Fitbit failed to map your route using your phone’s GPS, try starting the exercise in the Fitbit app on your phone instead of starting it directly on your Fitbit.
Remember, only activities where you cover physical distance outdoors, like a run, walk, hike, or bike ride, offer Connected GPS tracking with your phone.
And remember to wait for your phone to find the GPS signal before you start your workout.
Your phone’s Fitbit app needs to be active or running in the background to connect to GPS.
If that didn’t help, make sure Bluetooth is on, and your Fitbit is listed as connected in those Bluetooth settings.
Verify that the Fitbit app is always allowed in the background for things like location services, background app refresh, and battery usage by app.
Turn off Low Power mode, Battery savings, or Power saver mode on your phone.
Other things to check are that you don’t have Airplane mode or Do Not Disturb on and that you set the Fitbit app to the All Day Sync option. For Android devices, make sure Always Connected is on.
Tips to get Connected GPS working on your Fitbit device
- Update the Fitbit app to its latest version and check if your Fitbit device has a pending firmware update.
- Force quit and then relaunch the Fitbit app to refresh its connection. Then, sync your device in the app. Finally, select a GPS-based activity and start it from the tracker.
- Open your phone’s Settings > Fitbit app and turn off Bluetooth. Restart your phone and then go back to Settings > Fitbit app and turn Bluetooth on.
- Go to your paired phone’s settings, turn Bluetooth off, wait 20 seconds, and then turn it back on.
- Review your phone’s Bluetooth devices. If you see any old and not used Fitbit devices in your phone’s list of Bluetooth devices, tap them and choose to Forget this Device.
- Restart your phone and restart your Fitbit device.
- Sync your Fitbit and then remove the Fitbit app and reinstall it on your paired phone.
- Set up your Fitbit as a new device.
- Sync your Fitbit to the Fitbit app so you archive your data.
- Go to the Bluetooth settings on your phone and choose to Forget this Device.
- Open the Fitbit app and choose to Set up a New Device.
- Choose your Fitbit model and follow the onscreen instructions.
- If the Fitbit app asks you to replace your Fitbit, choose to replace it.
- Pair your Fitbit with your phone or other device and follow the remaining instructions.

Connected GPS: What even is it?
You may have stumbled across the term connected GPS, especially when reading about Fitbit’s line of smartwatches and fitness trackers. There’s actually a pretty big distinction between connected GPS and built-in GPS, which we’ll talk all about in this article.
What is connected GPS and how does it compare to GPS?
The term connected GPS is a fitness company’s way of saying a wearable can tether to your smartphone’s GPS, but it doesn’t have a GPS sensor built-in. Connected GPS is an easy way for a manufacturer to add GPS functionality to any device. Instead of including a GPS sensor directly in a wearable, the wearable can tether off your phone’s built-in GPS hardware. This brings down the overall cost and physical size of the device. This is because the manufacturer wouldn’t need to spend the extra money on a standalone GPS sensor.
Related: The best smartwatches you can get right now
On the other hand, there’s one big downside to using a device with connected GPS over one that has a GPS built-in. In that setup, the wearable is heavily reliant on another device to use its full potential. So if you want to use GPS functionality on a connected GPS-enabled device, you’ll also need to carry your phone with you.
Which devices have connected GPS?
Most devices you can buy today with connected GPS are fitness trackers, including many Fitbit devices. The Fitbit Versa, Versa Lite, Versa 2, Fitbit Inspire, and Inspire HR all fall into this category. Other wearables not made by Fitbit also have connected GPS functionality, including the Xiaomi Mi Band 4, Withings Move, and more. Here are a few of our favorite devices with connected GPS:
Though connected GPS is a great feature to have, many other manufacturers opt for built-in GPS technology instead. Some of the latest smartwatches like the Fossil’s Gen 5 smartwatch line, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3., and the Fitbit Versa 3 all have built-in GPS functionality. There are seemingly countless other devices, new and old, with built-in GPS. Here are some of our favorites:
In an even bigger cost-saving measure, some manufacturers completely skip adding GPS (connected GPS and built-in GPS) to their devices. The Samsung Galaxy Fit and Garmin Vivosmart 4 are prime examples. Though both companies make good fitness trackers, this little omission makes them a hard sell over something like what Xiaomi is offering given its price point.
What is the best option for you?
In the end, which method of GPS functionality you need is primarily dependent on your physical activity. If you are an outdoor runner, cyclist, or swimmer, and you want to track your workouts as accurately as possible, you should purchase a device with a built-in GPS sensor. Garmin has a ton of GPS running watches available with built-in GPS, and the Fitbit Versa 3 is pretty great too.
If you work out in a gym or you don’t mind carrying your phone or mounting it to your bike, connected GPS is a great option, especially one of Fitbit’s connected GPS offerings. Smartphones today have excellent GPS technology built-in, so you can rely on high-end technology without paying a high-end price tag.

If you rarely work out, or you never use GPS when you do, it simply comes down to personal preference. Style aside, devices with connected GPS are usually more budget-friendly. They also typically have a smaller profile, so if you are someone who wants to wear a traditional watch as well as a fitness tracker, one of these devices would be a better option.
I am no competitive athlete, and I personally prefer Wear OS devices, so I would be more inclined to grab something like the Fossil Gen 5 or Mobvoi’s TicWatch Pro 3. But, if I wanted to save some money and all I wanted was a device to extend my phone’s functionality and maybe count my steps, it would be really hard to pass on the Xiaomi Mi Band 4.

How to Fix GPS Not Working on Fitbit Charge 2
Since the Fitbit Charge 2 does not have a built-in GPS, your Fitbit Charge 2 works with the sensors in your nearby mobile device to track GPS data (known as "connected" GPS). If your Fitbit device begins experiencing issues with GPS functionality, this guide will take you through troubleshooting steps to help you get things working properly again.
Your mobile device needs to be within 20 feet of your Fitbit Charge 2 in order for the devices to properly communicate with one another.
- Phone not found (dashed line): If the phone icon has an animated dashed line next to it, your phone can't find a GPS signal. A weak GPS signal can be caused by environmental factors such as tall buildings, dense forest, steep hills, or even thick cloud cover. All of these factors can interrupt the connection between your tracker and GPS satellites.
- Phone not found (crossed out): If the phone icon has a line through it, Bluetooth is likely turned off (meaning your tracker is no longer connected to your phone).
- Check Fitbit app: This message means you may need to grant location permissions on your phone.
When it comes to GPS functionality, sometimes nothing is wrong with your Fitbit or your mobile device. A weak GPS signal can be caused by environmental factors such as tall buildings, dense forest, steep hills, or even thick cloud cover. All of these factors can disrupt or completely interrupt the connection between your device and GPS satellites.
- Try moving outside or to a location where you can obtain a better signal. If this restores GPS functionality, the issue was with GPS signal and not your devices.
