Hello @Marie39,  welcome to the Community Forums!

 

Thanks for the information that was shared in your post. Please note that even though a mobile device is not listed as compatible with our products and services, most of the times such devices work properly with Fitbit devices, however, we cannot ensure that they will always work in such way due to Fitbit app, device and Android updates. That said, this is the reason why we always recommend our users to use compatible mobile device to avoid any connection difficulties. 

 

Let me know if you have any additional questions.

I gave it to a friend to use and she had a better phone than I did and I still would not work for her so I told her go to Walmart to get her a new one. I just want you all to know the problems I was having.

Thanks for your reply @Marie39 and welcome aboard @LunaATic.

 

If you haven't already done so, I recommend you to check how the syncing procedure works here and see if there's a missing requirement on your mobile devices that's preventing the syncing procedure to be completed. Also, you can move forward to the troubleshooting steps that are specified on: Why won't my Fitbit device sync? and let me know how it goes. 

 

Please make sure that your mobile devices are compatible with our products and services because a compatibility concern can cause connection difficulties.

 

Keep me posted, I'll be around if you need anything else.
