@crystaltips05 Welcome to the Fitbit Community! I hope you're doing well! Sorry to hear that your Fitbit device isn't syncing with your phone. Which phone do you have? Is it compatible?

You can try going to your phone's bluetooth settings and remove all devices listed there. Restart your phone and restart your device. After this try syncing them. Also, if you are using an Android device, check that your app has the necessary permissions (settings > apps > Fitbit > permissions) and make sure bluetooth and location services (GPS) are on.

Let me know how it goes!

Just realized mine hasn't synced in a few days. Doesn't suprise me anymore. Won't be buying a new Fitbit when this one dies. Every time there's an update something goes wrong
