Blaze screen is flashing

[Netty1018]

My Fitbit Blaze screen is constantly flashing. Almost looks like as if the screen will give out and display nothing after a while. Any idea why it's doing this?

Welcome to the Community @Netty1018 and @SunsetRunner thanks for stopping by and the instruction provided.  Do you have the "Quick View" option on? If you do, I recommend turning it off by doing the following from your Blaze:

1. Swipe to Settings

2. Tap the Quick View option

3. Select off

4. Sync

If this doesn't work, you can follow our friend's recommendation and restart your Fitbit.

Let me know the outcome.

Hi there,

 I have the same problem with my fitbit blaze and after restart it is still blinking. 

Kindly advise the next step

I have the flashing screen too. Turning off quick view sounds more like a work around than a solution and it didn't work.

Edit: I did a restart and that fixed it.

It's great to welcome you @Syahmi91 and @controlfreak it's great to see you around.

@controlfreak I am glad to hear that your inconvenience has been resolved and that your tracker is now working. If you need anything else, do not hesitate in posting it. Now @Syahmi91, could you please tell me what are you seeing when your tracker blinks, is it the Fitbit logo or it is just showing the clock face?

Hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks for posting this! This fixed my fitbit Blaze! Another post recommended changing my home screen but that did not work. Within a few seconds the flashing stopped. 🙂

A second kudos for posting this!  I had the same problem, but didn't know how to restart.  A quick restart fixed the problem!

Hi Alejandra,

The whole display blinked, Fitbit logo and the clock face.

A couple of weeks ago the blinking stopped miraculously. This morning after charging from low battery status to full battery state, the blinking came back.

Then, I re-started the device a couple of times, the blinking finally STOPPED. Though intermittently blinks once in a while...

An explanation could be useful for us to understand here, I have attached a recent photo before the blinking stopped.

Thanks I tried that this morning and it worked 🙂

[filskill]

I too have the blinking light and have already attempted to do the restart with no luck. Please advise. I've only had this 5months. 😞 

[booniesnag]

I wish I could help further, but a restart fixed my problem the first
time. You might try it again, even two or three more times if necessary,
to see if that will eventually fix it.
