Fitbit flex 2 not found and won't sync but is connected to app?

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Recently my fitbit flex 2 won't sync on demand or only does it every couple of days. It keeps saying device isn't found but yet sometimes it syncs? I have tried reconnecting, turning Bluetooth on and off, downloading the app again.

This has happened on 2 different phone of two different makes. It is getting very frustrating and the device is only a year old. Anyone else experienced this?

Same. It shows up but won't sync on demand and then half the time I don't know if it's in need of charging either. Very spotty lately. I use Android phone with Flex 2.

I have an android phone and have the latest version of the app. It just
seems very temperamental and by the sounds of it other people are having
the same issue with the flex 2

Same/similar issue. Last synced 3 days ago. Android with Flex 2. Neither the phone nor the app can see the device.
Turned Bluetooth off and back on. No change.

Uninstalled and reinstalled newest FitBit software. No change.

Restarted tracker. No Change.

Loaded the software on the wife's phone. No change.

Flex 2 is less than a year old.

@Sophfinlay  @Avaly13  @BellaMH  @Michelemarie  @MaxxTx  there is a new Android app version being rolled out to us. Version 3.7 started arriving yesterday, so it will get to all of us in turn. I'm waiting on mine to show up. That should take care of a few issues. Keep an eye out for that update. I'm moving this post to the Android area of the forums.
