Error message "Pairing Rejected"

[Jusdaddy2009]

I'm getting an error message on my Samsung Galaxy S7 edge when trying to pair my Fitbit to my phone. The error message saying "Pairing Rejected". Why ?? HELP!

How are you trying to do the pairing? Fitbits are unusual in that the pairing has to be done via the fitbit app and not via the Android Bluetooth settings

I have an LG Stylo 2 V.  I am finding my Versa 2 very discouraging.  Latest...Versa 2 is declining to pair with Bluetooth.  I know the app is how I pair.  In am not techie AT ALL.  I feel I have tried e everything.  My Versa 2 won't sync.  Help!

Fitbit - Please UPDATE this answer. 2021 instructions say TO pair thru phone's BT settings!
