I think it's an Inspire?? It is very basic. It won't let me set the sleep settings either. THANK YOU for reaching out.

Hi @JBVDR I hope you're doing well! Allow me to help you adjusting the time on your Inspire 3.

 
If you changed time zones and the time on your device is still incorrect after syncing, make sure the time zone in the Fitbit app is correct:
 
  1. From the Today tab in the Fitbit app, tap your profile picture >  Fitbit settings.
  2. In the App Settings section, tap Date, time & units.
  3. Tap Time Zone.
  4. Turn off the Set Automatically option and choose the correct time zone.
  5. Sync your Fitbit device.
  6. If the time is still incorrect, log out of the Fitbit app, and then log back in before syncing again.

If the issue persists, try restarting your device:

  1. Swipe down from the clock screen to find the Settings app 
     
     and then tap the app to open it.
  2. Swipe up and tap Restart Device.
  3. Swipe up and tap Restart.
I hope this tips will help you to get back on track !

My Fitbit is so basic that the settings are auto water,auto wake,notifications, walk, and relax, That’s it. 
Thank you so much for your kind interest in my dilemma.

You need to go to your phone Fitbit app settings, not your fitbit watch settings. 

From the Fitbit app on your phone, click on your Google account profile picture on your top right of the screen. Then follow the instructions above. For me I just had to toggle the 'automatic timezone' settings off and on again, and then force sync the Fitbit again (in that order), however David's instructions also work. If the automatic timezone doesn't work you can toggle it off and then manually select the timezone you're in instead.

My inspire 3 has lost 8 minutes on the time, why could this be? Cannot find a way to alter the time as I assume it’s automatic.

This is a ridiculous answer.  A user should not need to TURN OFF TIME ZONE SYNCING with their phone and manually set the time zone on their "smart" fitbit!  If Google sells devices that claim to sync with their phones (I own a google pixel 6 phone), then they should make sure this functionality works!  Google can afford to pay its engineers plenty of money.  Tell those engineers to fix their stuff!!!

p.s. my answer was in response to the post by DavidFitbit.  I own a fitbit inspire 3.  I like the design of the watch and the things it does do correctly.  I do NOT like the things it does wrong, with the most annoying bug being the fitbit time zone not syncing with my phone.
