Syncing difficulties - Device not found

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

I have updated the app; uninstalled app and reinstalled app but I still get no device found.  It happens so quickly for no device found message that I really don't think the app is looking for my device.  This started on January 15th but I just noticed it now.  

 

Any suggestions?

Hi @nicksmom67, It's nice to see you again participating here in the Community Forums, welcome back!

 

First, I appreciate your effort and patience for troubleshooting this situation prior to posting, I totally understand how frustrating this matter can be for you. If you haven't already done so, I recommend you to check how the syncing procedure works here and see if there's a missing requirement on your mobile device that's preventing the syncing procedure to be completed. Also, can you please check if your phone is listed as a compatible device with our products and services? Please check our list here

 

Then, you can move forward to the troubleshooting steps that are specified on: Why won't my Fitbit device sync? and let me know how it goes.

 

Keep me posted and let me know if you have any additional questions.

I've just had this happen for the second time.  The last time it resolved itself on its own. I haven't been able to fix it yet this morning.

I followed the instructions with no change to synch.  I have an android phone and a charge 2.

I have tried EVERYTHING and mine stopped syncing about 10 months after I had it.  I left it for 30 days and reinstalled the device after fully charging and it stayed sync for about 8 hours and now nothing I try will work.  I keep getting "device not found"
