After spending an hour on Fitbit chat trying to troubleshoot my problem was advised that there is a system error and many people are unable to Sync. Not sure why I wasn't advised of this as I had already tried out all the troubleshooting methods myself. Not sure what to do now as it basically is useless without the tracking comparison of activity/ sleep.

This was a very helpful suggestion!! On my iPhone X I went to Bluetooth and told it to forget my inspire. Which it said wasn’t connected. It didn’t even give me a warning. But it showed a loading sign (continual circling) and the. Bingo it recognized my device. Some glitch must have happened yesterday to a bunch of us.

I just got mine yesterday. Paired great then this morning for about an hour then nothing. I’m trying all ideas and troubleshoots suggested. I hate technology in times like this! I “forget device” from Bluetooth and now wont even find to connect. Or in the Fitbit app. 😤😩 I have and iPhone7s

I think that option is on Android device under Applications or Apps. I don’t think IPhones have that option

Same here. The last day mine synced was Wednesday, May 13th. It's driving me crazy. Guess I'll get a Garmin next time.

Hi. I'm sorry it took me so long to respond to this. I should clarify that going into the app and selecting "Force Stop" is for an Android. I went into "Settings" and then "General" and then "Apps." I then selected the Fitbit app. When you open it, there should be an option on the upper left that says "Force Stop."
On my Android, I don't have the option to forget about a device. I believe that option is just for iPhones. Regardless of which phone you have, I'd hate for anyone to have to go to all the trouble of uninstalling the app and then reinstalling it, etc. It seems like a ridiculous length a customer should have to go for something that should just be working. I hope Fitbit is addressing the fact that so many people are dealing with these errors for a product they purchased.
