Hello all,

So i have had my fibit inspire 3 for about 2 months now, its a tricky little device to work out why things suddenly stop working and how to get around it. For a while the GPS stopped working when i went on runs, managed to fix this by making sure it was synced to my device before every run.

Over the past couple of days i have had an issue with my fitbit all of a sudden stopping recording my sleep. It was working perfectlt fine every single night until a couple days ago. Its fully synced and i have not played around with the settings on my phone. I am wearing as i usually do at night time but nothing. No sleep time, score or any of the other details.

Does anyone know how to fix this? I have been reading up on it and it seems like it is a common issue with the inspire 3

With all the issues i am experiencing i have been thinking about switching over to the garmin 255. If yall have any input on this and if the switch is worth it, do let me know thank you.

I have had the Inspire 3 for 1 year and 1 month. Almost as soon as it passed it's one year warranty, it stopped working.  Will not hold a charge, screen turns green, basically not functional. After troubleshooting on my own and with the fit bit team, there is no fix.  But, since it has been 13 months since purchase- no warranty!  

 

Giving only 35% off a new purchase that will likely only last 1 year again is a waste!  Admit that there is a problem and fix or replace.  I do not want to spend more money on something that will not last. I'm not impressed. Do not buy the Inspire 3.  So disappointed that they don't stand by their products. Gentle daily use and they expect me to buy a new one after a year. So disappointing. Make this right, FIt Bit.

Get anything but a Fitbit product. To save yourself a lot of aggravation.  Bought mine specifically for sleep tracking. It’s so inconsistent and after reaching out several times to support (who then have me do several things ). Still doesn’t track. After a year I am done.
