Getting my Blaze to pair

[Nikki_V]

I cant get my blaze to pair to my samsung s8+ is this bc the phone is new? I can get it to connect as a classic but I would like to have my notifications as to when someone is calling me or sends a text. How can I fix this?

Hello @Nikki_V is your Blaze connected to your Fitbit account?

This first needs to be done, then the app will pair the tracker to the phone. Have you been getting the message "Rejected by Blaze"?

If the tracker is setup to your account, then we need to setup notifacations. Http://help.fitbit.com/?q=notifacations

It is saying rejected by blaze.

@Nikki_V see my response above, your still trying to paur the tracker to the phone. This cwn not be done, 6ou will get the error "rejected by blaze" everytime.

You must use the app to setup the Blaze to your account, then once setup the app will know what tracker is attached to the account. It will then procede yo pair tge trwcker to the phone if it needs to. If notifications sre off, there is no need to pair thr tracker. If they are on it might not pair until the first notifacation comes in.

Please read your manual https://staticcs.fitbit.com/content/assets/help/manuals/manual_blaze_en_US.pdf

I have set up notifications on both the blaze as well as the phone. Blaze
classic will pair however blaze will not. I went to see about compatible
devices and the Samsung s8+ Is not on there. It's a new phone. Could this
be the reason for the "rejected by blaze"

The Blaze clasaic will and should pair this way, the Voaze will not, youll always get the rejected message.

Have you setup your tracker yet?

With Fitbits, you need to use tye app to attach the tracker, called setup, to your Fitbit account. After it is attached to your account the app will know which tracker to pair with the phone.
