I have followed all the various procedures to resend my fitbit charge 5 and now my Andrpid Bluetooth doesn't even recognize my fitbit. Connecting the two is not an option! This has caused my alarms to not work because my phone is still with yesterday's data but today's date! HOW DO OLI FIX THIS!!!

@Nakonaska1
Are you trying to connect through the phone's BT or the Fitbit app? You need to use the app to pair.
What phone are you using? Does it meet the minimum Android version?
You can try adding the Charge 5 as a new device in the Fitbit app.

In addition to the steps you've done so far, I'd recommend trying the following steps in the order listed:
With the steps above, what I want you to do is to pair your Charge 5 first to your phone's Bluetooth settings before any other Bluetooth device is connected to your phone.

I tried everything on mine as well. Every “helpful” tip or trick has not worked. So NO this was not helpful.
Since the newest update my charge 5 will not sync or pair to my iPhone. It looks like it’s time to go look into another smart watch or tracker.

fitbit has not once provided me with details on how to fix the many problems I have had with my Charge 5. Suddenly mine disconnects every night from bluetooth on my iphone. It lo longer accurately records sleep stats. I have had three different models, the Charge 5 has had the most problems of them all! It is time to give up on Fitbit and find another smart watch with better support!
