Inspire 3 Relax App: Breathing Animation Missing and Sessions Not Syncing

‎07-25-2025 10:01

‎07-25-2025 10:01

On my Inspire 3, the Relax app no longer functions as expected. The animated breathing circle that’s supposed to guide your breath is missing, I only see a static grey circle during the session. While I do receive haptic feedback, the breathing alignment consistently registers as “Low,” even when I follow the prompts carefully.

Additionally, these breathing sessions are not syncing to the Fitbit app at all. I’ve attempted restarting the device, but the issue persists.

Details:

  • Device: Fitbit Inspire 3
  • Firmware version: 63.20001.214.24
  • Fitbit app version: 4.48 (iOS)
  • Phone: iPhone 13 Pro Max 
  • Steps already tried: Restarting the Inspire 3, checking for updates

Expected behavior:

  • Animated circle should appear to guide breathing
  • Breathing alignment should reflect input when following cues
  • Relax sessions should sync to the Fitbit app like other health metrics

 

I’d appreciate any advice or fixes. Thank you in advance!

I have the same issue. It's still broken, since months. No fix so far.

The issue is widespread, you're not alone. Let's keep reporting to constructively show the scale of the problem. For the good of the community.

Previous reports, closed somehow, without resolution:

Someone in there noted on 17/06 that they reported these issues several months before that date. Incredible.

EDIT: reports go back 7 months:

7 months. One of the few apps on this device, the only one for relaxation and mindfulness, has been completely broken for 7 months. 

EDIT 2: look at all these people having this issue all the way back in December 2024:

Replies disabled. No communication since. Still broken.

Any response from Fitbit, Google, or the mods?
