2 If necessary, turn on the device.
3 Wait while the device searches for satellites.

in the status bar shows the satellite signal strength.
When the device acquires satellite signals, it automatically starts recording your path as an activity.
GPS and Other Satellite Systems
Using GPSand another satellite system together offers increased performance in challenging environments and
faster position acquisition than using GPS only. However, using multiple systems can reduce battery life more
quickly than using GPS only.
Your device can use these Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). Multi-band systems use multiple
frequency bands and allow for more consistent track logs, improved positioning, improved multi-path errors,
and fewer atmospheric errors when using the device in challenging environments.
GPS multi-band: A satellite constellation built by the United States, using the enhanced L5 signal.
GLONASS: A satellite constellation built by Russia.
GALILEO: A satellite constellation built by the European Space Agency.
