Hello, thank you for using Howly.
Can you specify the model of your Fitbit device?
Versa 2
Noted.
Did you get any error messages when trying to connect it to Wi-Fi?
Yes
What does it say?
On the Fitbit app it says fix it but i can't click onto it, on the phone on blue tooth it says not connected but won't connect, I have had problems with my electricty and now everything is back on apart from my Fitbit
I see, did you try resetting the router?
Yes I tried that and turned my phone off and back on as well
Right, you specified the Bluetooth as well, is it connected via Bluetooth now?
No it just won't connect
Please reset Fitbit Versa 2, this way:
I only have a button on the left hand side and when i press that it says set up Alexa
Where do you press it?
The button on the left side of the fitbit
Again, press and hold that button for 10 seconds. Release the button when the Fitbit logo appears on the screen. Your smartwatch will now reboot.
I am in the settings now and there is no Restart
Do this from the start, please: press and hold that button for 10 seconds. Release the button when the Fitbit logo appears on the screen. Your smartwatch will now reboot.
Ah right the fitbit sign has come up
Good.
It still won't connect to my phone
Did it reboot?
It has come back to the front screen that I usually have
Good, now from the start try connecting it to the phone via Bluetooth.
No it still won't connect
Via the Bluetooth won`t connect, right?
Yes
Please do these: Open the Fitbit app on your iPhone. Tap Account —> —> Versa 2. Scroll down and tap Remove this Versa 2.
It says looking and below that it says set up a device, there is no Remove this versa
Click on set up a device.
Done that
Follow the directions which will also lead you thru the steps to reconnect to Bluetooth.
When I click on Versa 2 It says there is a fitbit versa 2 connected to you account already
In this case, Tap Account —> —> Versa 2. Scroll down and tap Remove this Versa 2.
Right found it
Good.
After that, Tap Account —> Set up a Device. Follow the directions which will also lead you thru the steps to reconnect to Bluetooth.
It says lost bluetooth pairing and to go to settings, tried to connect but won't
I see.
Please, go into a room with no other Bluetooth devices. No speakers, No Alexa devices. Sometimes too many Bluetooth devices nearby can interfere. Open the Fitbit app on your iPhone. Tap Account —> Set up a Device. Follow the directions which will also lead you thru the steps to reconnect to Bluetooth.

What did you do?

Right it is now connected on the bluetooth setting
Okay, now go to the app and check from there as well.
Do you want me to set up a device
Yes, try it, please
Right it has got to the part where the fitbit is put into the charger and then the next page says not working ? and 3 things to try, the button at the bottom says try again but i won't go past there
So what do you see on the screen now?
1 Make sure Versa 2 is charged and turned on 2 Restart your device by pressing and holding the side button for about 10 seconds 3 Turn off bluetooth on your mobile device then turn on again
Yeah, I see
I turned to bluetooth off but now it has disappeared
It has now asked me to put a code in on my fitbit which I have and it is waiting to connect
Oh, okay
