Hello guys! I'm glad to see you participating in our Community @Dawnphin @SteveH and to assist oyu with this situation. 

 

I've seen this type of difficulties regarding the 4 digit PIN that you can put on your device. However, this usually happens when the PIN has been entered incorrectly 10 times just as @SteveH advised.  You can resolve it by following the next steps: 

 

  1. From the Fitbit app dashboard, tap or click the Account icon > your device image. 
  2. Tap or click Device Lock.
  3. Find the option to reset your PIN code. 

 

@SteveH  Thanks for your suggestions, it's always nice to see you around helping other users.

 

Keep me posted.

You get this message if you enter the wrong PIN on your fitbit too many times. Instructions on what to do can be found in this help file: https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/2250/
