Really fed up with my Blaze, it loves to revert to a time I do not recognise as being correct, tried the forums where obviously people have the same issues but none of the actions change the time so as a consequence I've returned it to its box in a draw to die.

its certainly not the most accurate bit of kit as it registers arm movements as well as steps so it seems I score great results even if I can prove distance walked on a map.

 

The blaze is my second Fitbit product as I also have a charge which ls not the best at anything, really sad as at first I was impressed but now having to live hours behind or is it ahead? I've decided a Pedometer and a device called a watch work so much more accurately and the watch tells the correct time. 

any ideas on fixing this thing once and for all and does anyone truly find it is truthful, Naff kit I feel, 18 months in disappointment is my result.

If the time is off by exact number of hours, that is probably a time zone issue.  First check that it is set for the correct time zone.  If that is correct, sometimes it helps to set it to another (incorrect) time zone, sync, then set back to correct zone and sync again.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

Thanks for this I have literally tried every suggestion on the forum the infernal thing just reverts back during the day and I don't carry my phone at work so it should have no link. I'm thinking death in a drawer is the best end for it.
