I'm having exactly the same issue: I've tried restarting my FitBit Inspire HR (several times); resetting the clock face; I've even tried removing and adding the device in my FitBit app on my phone. Right now I've got the "Stats-Heavy" clock face selected so I can at least see my steps and heart rate, but that's not idea. Can someone from Customer Service contact me?

My hr will not scroll. I can hit the side button but it will not swipe up or down. I've done the restart as suggested but it doesnt work. I am receiving notifications but am not able to swipe the screen at all.

Yes I tried those steps and the steps to restart without losing data. I've tried both and it restarts after the smile face shows up but it's still not working to swipe. I am receiving notifications still.

My Inspire has been acting "weird" too. I restarted it, but I still couldn't swipe. Then last night it was frozen on the Fitbit dots even though I was charged. I plugged it in and restarted it, but it's still acting up. Today I uninstalled and reinstalled it and changed the clock face. It somewhat swipes (only when it wants to), but still is not working fully. It's also not tracking steps. Please help.

I couldn't find out if I could edit my post so I'm just replying to it.

 

After I restarted the device again, it is tracking my steps. However, it still doesn't let me swipe. Now, the battery is dying within a day. I got woken up to an alert on my watch at 1:15 am when it was fully charged that morning.
