I cannot get the Ace to pair to my iPhone.
I've followed all troubleshooting options.
- Ace is fully charged.
- I have reset the Ace multiple times.
- I have turned phones Bluetooth on and off again repeatedly.
- I have updated phone software
- Removed all current paired Bluetooth devices.
- Restarted phone.
But the Fitbit app cannot find it to pair with it.
Would really like some help please as I've got a very disappointed kid!

Hi JuanJo,
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, there is no other phones or tech in the house we can try to connect it too. Only this iPhone 6, running the latest software (it couldn't pair before the update either.)
Do you have any other ideas? I can see if it will work on a colleagues phone tomorrow.

@lstricks Thank you for getting back! I understand that you don't have another device at home. Were you able to set it up on your colleague's phone?
On an aside note, I'd like you to make sure that your phone has the most recent Fitbit app version installed.
Keep me posted!

Hi @JuanJoFitbit,
I definitely do have the most recent FitBit version installed, I double checked that and then uninstalled/reinstalled it for luck!
Unfortunately, colleague already has a fitbit installed one her phone and doesn't want this to potentially jam up that one! Unsure where to go from here.

Hi!
Nope, no luck.
Have done all troubleshooting possible, followed every step and every solution.
Also tried on a friends iPhone 7 and a Huawei Mate 20 Pro and nothing works.
Potentially a faulty FitBit?

Everyone - It is better to post to these boards or contact Support rather than PM a stranger.
