The screen on my charge 3 seems to be going out! I have restarted it several times and that did nothing. It has thick white stripes doing down it and its hard to see underneath them. It looks almost like static..like an old black and white TV with bad reception. Not sure how else to describe it. Its looks terrible. Any idea's on what's going on? Yes the battery is charged.

Here is what my screen looks like. Yes I have restarted it several times and yes I tried changing the clock face. It did nothing to fix the problem.

I've changed the clock face and that didn't work. I guess I did the short restart. Won't have access to my charger for a couple more hours to try a long restart. Will let you know how that goes.

My charge 3 started having the same issues yesterday also. I tried the long reset and screen is still the same with the long white lines on the screen.

I’m having the same issue with my screen. I’ve tried restarting and changing the clock face as suggested in other posts but it still has the white lines.

I am having the same issue. I changed the clock and did the long reset. The long reset made the screen even worse. How can I replace the screen?

I don’t know that you can replace the screen. I was offered a newer Fitbit at a discount but for the same price I got a Versa Lite.
