How can the gifter activate their Premium trial?

[GiftGiver]

Purchased a fitbit and the optional 6-month premium subscription. Gift recipient has a different fitbit / Google account than the purchaser, and I cannot locate any guidance on how to transfer or update the subscription so that they may activate and use the premium features.

Welcome to the community, @GiftGiver.

Thanks for sharing this with me, I'm happy your relative received a Fitbit device. Before anything else, I'd like to clarify with you that once the new device is set up in a Fitbit app, you can activate their trial on their own account. To do this, I'd recommend your relative to try the following steps:

1. In the Fitbit app, tap the You tab, then tap Try Fitbit Premium.

2. Choose a 1-year or monthly subscription to start after your trial, and follow the instructions to subscribe.
