Fitbit Charge 4 gets Dynamic GPS, Smart Wake alarms with the latest update – Armenian Reporter

Fitbit has released a brand new software update for the Charge 4 fitness band which brings along a few useful features.
The first one’s Dynamic GPS, which allows Charge 4 to make use of the paired smartphone’s GPS sensor whether it’s nearby to recapture route and pace among other stats. This should help save the battery on Charge 4 since it wont use its built-in GPS when you are carrying your phone with you.
The 2nd feature is Smart Wake in the Alarms app which avoids waking you during your deep sleep and finds the best time 30 minutes before the set alarm time to wake you up. This would be to ensure you awaken feeling fresh.
The update also contains a new Screen Time Out setting that lets you adjust how long the display of the Charge 4 remains on after it’s woken up. You can have a look at the full changelog of the update below.
