palindrome(NIT) 💫🇳 (@kumardprince1) reported@fitbit @FitbitSupport @GoogleFitBit In Hyderabad (or anywhere in India), how to fix a broken glass of a Fitbit watch? (I am interested in Versa 3)
-
Joanna 🩶 (@joanna19x0) reportedMy Fitbit versa 2 is not syncing, I’ve tried everything. Reinstalling the app, removing the device and resubmitting it on the app and it still is not working! I also can’t get the time to sync so it is 10 minutes delayed @FitbitSupport
-
Kerry Patricia (@Kerry_Patricia) reportedKinda glad to see I'm not alone with my #fitbit app not working again... definitely disappointed that this seems to be the new normal for this product... @fitbit @FitbitSupport
-
Dale Kristina Valiukas (@dkvaliukas) reported@FitbitSupport How come I can't even send you a private message. Im a paid subscriber, and why is it i either wake up with a blank screen and I never get my spo2 anymore. Please fix this problem, and next time, please inform me when you're taking money out of my account (premium)
-
Matthew Halmshaw (@matthewhalmshaw) reported@FitbitSupport Hi guys. I'll contact @EE too but but the battery life has taken a real nose dive the last few weeks. Perfectly fine for 8 months or so and now the battery life is really bad

TheCynic (@Harryh999) reported@fitbit @Ranchwater12 and terrible battery life, I bought a smart watch from amazon £19.95, much more impressive than my fit bit
-
Dale Kristina Valiukas (@dkvaliukas) reported@ManchesterBlond @FitbitSupport I get the same problem. I go to settings to apps, select fitbit, force stop it, and reopen it again. See if that works.
-
Justin (@crossbosox) reported@IamEveryDayPpl @fitbit Mine would log 2 bfast items then when I tried to add what I was going to have later in the day it deleted bfast. Ha. Def a first world problem but V irritating!
-
Anil Jo Thomas (@thomasaniljo) reported@FitbitSupport @fitbit is there an issue with your app? I've been trying to log in my food consumption today and the data disappears. What is going on?
-
Anita Dreenk (@AnitaDreenk) reported@fitbit STILL not working to log my food. No matter. I have now canceled my premium account and will now track my food on myfitnssspal. Thank you for helping me to continue cutting expenditures in this down economy, #fitbit!
-
Jessica Young (@Jessicayoung_99) reported@yonenchi @FitbitSupport having the disappearing logged food glitch isn’t going to be fixed for 7 days? That is absolutely asinine and unacceptable. Having one of the most important app features down for a whole week is inexcusable.
-
Ken Manzel (@ken_manzel) reported@payelhati2907 @madebygoogle @FitbitSupport I’m having same problem with my charge 6. Unresponsive, troubleshooting tips don’t work. I’ll put it on the charger and it’ll show it still has a significant amount of charge on it. No help from Fitbit support. How do I fix this?! It’s become unreliable and useless.
-
Tom Brander (@dartdog) reportedIrritated that the new @fitbit app no longer tracks hourly movement and gives nudges on the watch to move, it also no longer has a "cardio fitness" score, which was a proxy for vo2 max, nor does it have a place to record water intake, better graphics dumbed down. @google
-
John Rooney (@John_Rooney) reported@FitbitSupport my Charge 6 won’t synch. I tried disconnecting it from the app and now it won’t reconnect. Help!
-
Briana Lagos 👩🏽💻 {a6} (@brianarants) reportedI order a watch for my mom from @VitalityUSA and then get no shipment update. Now they tell me it’s been fulfilled and to check on that status with @FitbitSupport who also tells me they can’t check on the shipment status since I ordered thru third party. Someone ******* help me.

Danielle Hartley (@DanielleeH23) reported@Zoe24354074 @FitbitSupport Having this problem also been like it for weeks so annoying is yours sorted yet?
-
🚩 राजीव कौशिक 🚩जय हिन्द (@JindagiKyaHey) reported@FitbitSupport since morning trying to pair the watch with app but nothing is happening. WHAT A POOR TECHNOLOGY 😭UNABLE TO UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE USE FITBIT
-
Scrumblebum (@scrumblebum1) reportedFu k you @FitbitSupport useless. I just updgrqded after not having one and now yuu are changing everything and this is not working under Google. Bloody useless. Shoukd have known better than get an inferior product!!!!!
-
Timothy Columbus SR (@TimCoSrColumbus) reported@FitbitSupport I cannot contact you people the worst support system. I have dealt with three days. I’ve been trying to get a reply from you people. Pretty sure this will be the last Fitbit that I purchased.
-
samantha 🖤 (@samanthamuskett) reported@FitbitSupport @Jessicayoung_99 4.58 has not fixed the issue. Sort it!
-
N Renham 💙 (@Nufctillidie7) reported@FitbitSupport is there going to be any fix for the set up card wallet error that keeps appearing. Or is it time to move to a new smart watch manufacturer.
-
pissdrinker (@pissdrinker7886) reported@apple I don't really blame you for my iPad being broken. I mostly blame @fitbit because it was their app that broke it
-
Dale Kristina Valiukas (@dkvaliukas) reported@FitbitSupport How come I can't send you a message. My spo2 hasn't been working for days, and I have to keep force stopping the app because I get a blank page in the morning and have to start it back up. Im a paid subscriber, and I shouldn't have these problems. Help
-
ও ღ (@Zoe24354074) reported@FitbitSupport Hi, I’ve done all of that and also spoke to support. They said it was a known issue I was just hoping it would be sorted.
-
Professor Lycan (@ProfessorLycan) reportedI think it’s time I ditch @fitbit as a brand. They did a software update a while back and my battery went from lasting several days to lasting just about 6 hours. Yesterday I plugged it in at 68%, after 10minutes it went down to 63%. I can’t fathom a reason something like that would happen. This morning at 7am it was 100%. It died around noon time. This is designed obsolescence. @FitbitSupport What brand should I swap to?
-
KaLea in TX (@TexasKaLea) reported@FitbitSupport Not everyone wants to merge data with Google for sign in or anything else. After your cutover date in May - you lost me as customer of over 10 years!
-
Dale Kristina Valiukas (@dkvaliukas) reported@ManchesterBlond @FitbitSupport I get the same problem. I go to settings to apps, select fitbit, force stop it, and reopen it again. See if that works.
-
Shaun Thomas (@BonesMoses) reportedI'm about to throw my @fitbit Charge 5 in the trash. Some time after Google took over, the App just launches to a blank screen half the time until I reinstall or clear cache/data. Are there any good alternatives I should consider?
-
Larry (@_TraderLarry) reportedMy wife's @Fitbit always says she's an "Overachiever". Mine told me today to "slow down, you're killing yourself"! I swear it did.
