Hi, mine was the same. I switched off my phone, then switched it on again. The app then re-synched and it worked.

Hello @Queeniemum , @charliesaysgo , & @lkderm 

This help article has the recommended troubleshooting steps to try: Why won't my Fitbit sync? (<-- click link)

Just to let you know, some users reported that turning WiFi off and on, in addition to turning Bluetooth off and on, was helpful to get their Fitbits to sync with the app.

none of that has worked for me

Same here for Charge 5. None of the proposed fixes have worked. The app synched data through Tuesday evening (March 5), but has not collected data since, including sleep data.

Meanwhile, the Charge 5 continues to display data as usual.
