Hi there,
 
I'm wondering if you can help me at all please?  The last few days I've been experiencing issues with my Fitbit Ionic. 
 
The heart rate monitor has stopped working, the device is also not recording my steps and it no longer 'wakes up' when I raise my wrist or double tap the unit.
 
I have tried a device restart, I've closed all apps and restarted each device, turned off the bluetooth and tried to resync but still the data is incorrect and the heartrate monitor isn't functioning.
 
I tried cleaning the rear of the device with a dry toothbrush so there is no debris preventing contact or obstructing the LEDs but that has not resolved anything.
 
If you can offer any other solutions it would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thank you in advance
