Hi @Turns,

 

Fitbit maintains a device compatibility list, but I don't see your device on it. The only available platforms are iOS, Windows and Android.

 

Not that someone might have been able to get it to work, but it's not something Fitbit could provide support for.

I have a BlackBerry KEYone and it works flawlessly.  My wife has a BlackBerry PRIV and her Blaze works on it also flawlessly.

Save yourself the good earned money by waiting out. Dont buy it now. Wait until the issues resolve.

I'm a first time fitbit owner and my Ionic doesn't like my BlackBerry KEYone either.

Don't ask me how I did iy, but I was able to sync my BlackBerry Priv to my ionic.....maybe because the Priv is an Android?

If you have a desktop with Windows 10 buy a fitbit Bluetooth dongle and synch through wifi

This is very strange.  I have a KEYone and the Ionic works flawlessly with it.

I have a Blackberry Priv with the fitbit Ionic and it pairs with my phone without issue. And I get notifications as well. Fitbit pay also works great and no issues with loading music.

I had the same problem but somehow, I was able to sync my BB Priv and my Ionic. Unfortunately I do not remember how I did it. Trying going to Play Store and installing the Fitbit app.

Hi there, thank you for responding. I have already downloaded the app. It finds the device (ionic) but then fails to connect. I spoke to the advice team for fitbit and the person told me my phone is not compatible but I have searched a lot and so many people have said it works.
