How Do I Allow the Fitbit App to Use My Phone’s GPS?
All modern android phones come with a GPS. However, if your phone’s GPS is not working or experiencing issues, you can use the Fitbit app to record GPS data.
On top of that, you also have to make sure that your mobile phone’s access to the location is always set at ‘all the time’ or ‘always’.
Fitbit Ionic, Sense, and Versa 3 have built-in GPS, so you don’t need your phone’s GPS for them. But, Fitbit Charge 2, Charge 3, Charge 4, Charge 5, Blaze, Inspire 2, Inspire HR, Luxe, Versa, Versa 2, and Versa LE need to use the GPS of your phone.
Lastly, turn off the Fitbit app and restart your phone.
Why is the Weather Not Syncing with My Fitbit Device?

When you are experiencing something like this, check to see if your GPS is working or not. Then, go to your Fitbit profile, find the Weather, and have a look at the settings. Select the right location from the menu.
To complete, sync the Weather app with the Fitbit device. Just to make sure that all goes well, restart your mobile phone. See if the sync is back.
Solution 2
If not, in the Fitbit app dashboard, tap on the Account icon, and check if the ‘all-day sync’ is turned on. Just turn it on. The Weather should sync properly now.
Solution 3
On the other hand, if you have a habit of moving apps to your phone’s SD card, this may be the reason behind your syncing errors.
To solve this issue, go to your phone’s settings, select Apps, and then the Fitbit app. Go to Storage, and change to ‘internal shared storage’. Then, from now on, your Android phone will move the Fitbit app to internal storage.
Finally, enable the location of the Fitbit app.
