Can't set up my Inspire 3 with my iPhone 13 anymore

My Inspire 3 was having problems syncing with the FitBit app on iPhone 13. I followed all trouble shoot instructions with no success. The final option was to forget my Inspire 3 device from my phone and re pair it. Now, when I try to pair it to my phone, I get the 4 digit code on the device, type it into the app, and I get a giant "x" saying "try again". How can I solve this issue? My device is just a couple months old.

 

Details:

 

  • iPhone 13
  • Updated to latest software iOS 16.4.1
  • Inspire 3 above 90% charge
  • Have uninstalled and reinstalled the app
  • Have turned bluetooth on and off several times
  • Have restarted iPhone several times
  • Have restarted Inspire 3 several times

 

What else can I do or is my Inspire 3 dead?

Hi there, @djanik123. Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums. Thanks for trying to troubleshoot the issue with your Inspire 3 before reaching out. 

In addition to the steps you've done, please try the following in the order listed:

  • Unpair your Inspire 3 from your phone's Bluetooth and Fitbit app (or make sure it's no longer showing up).
  • Unpair other Bluetooth devices that you may also have paired to your phone's Bluetooth settings.
  • Force quit the Fitbit app.
  • Turn off other Bluetooth connections when not in use. This can help to prevent connectivity issues or Bluetooth interference.
  • Shut off your phone and turn it on after 1-2 minutes.
  • Turn on the Bluetooth on your phone.
  • Plug it into the charging cable and open the Fitbit app.
  • Set up your Inspire 3.
  • If there is no connection, restart your Inspire 3.
  • Once your Inspire 3 is paired and syncing, please proceed to set up your other Bluetooth devices to your phone again. 

With the steps above, what I want you to do is to pair your Inspire 3 first to your phone's Bluetooth settings before any other Bluetooth device is connected to your phone.
