@Stroller7 All Fitbits use the same app. You just add the Charge 6 as a new device. The Charge 6 requires a Google account. If you still have a Fitbit account, please migrate to a Google account first as a separate step.
If your Charge 5 is still on your account, the app will replace it with the Charge 6 during setup. Remove your Charge 5 from the Bluetooth list on your phone.
