My Charge 5 has stopped working

Hello, thank you for using Howly.
Have you tried restarting your Charge 5?

Customer Replay

Yes. I have tried to charge it on 2 different chargers but to no avail.

Does it respond to touch?

Customer Replay

No

Please carry out the following steps to reset your Charge 5 device:

  1. Connect your device to the charging cable.
  2. Press the button located on the flat end of the charger 3 times within 8 seconds, holding each press for about 1 second.
  3. Wait 10 seconds or until the Fitbit logo appears.

Do you mean the long bar on both sides of the watch?
This hasn't worked

No, there is a button on the charging cable itself
Please see the round button on the USB-facing connector

Found it. It has started up, but need to pair it

Do you have the Fitbit app on your phone?

Customer Replay

Yes, all seems to be working again, thank you very much for your help

You are welcome, *****!
Is there anything else I can do for you today?

Customer Replay

No thank you
Actually, out of interest, what caused this to happen?

It's hard to say. Could be anything: connectivity issue, software glitch etc
If it ever becomes unresponsive again, please carry out the same steps to revive it
