@Jmckee64 It's nice to see you around the Community Forums. 

 

May I know the model of your mobile phone? Please make sure it meets the requirements listed here.

 

Despite meeting the above requirements, the following devices often exhibit compatibility issues that cause our products and services to not operate properly:

 

  • Huawei P8 Lite
  • Huawei P9 Lite 
  • Xiaomi Mi 6 
  • Huawei P20 Lite 
  • See these additional instructions for help resolving any issues using the Fitbit app on this device.

 

If your phone is not on the list above and meets the requirements to operate properly with the Fitbit app, please try the steps provided here Why won't my Fitbit device sync? and Why are notifications delayed or missing?

 

Last but not least, if you're getting an error message in the Fitbit app, please let me know what it says so I can go from there.

 

Hope that helps.
