Inspire HR won't turn on or connect to my iPhone. Vibrates every few seconds and I have seen a smiley face but it won't turn on. I put it on the charger overnight and still nothing. Can't get it to connect so I can't even restart it or anything. Not happy with this product. I have only had this one for a few months.

I am having the same issues and literally taken it out of the box to charge for my son and it has just died. Won’t do anything not even react to the charger and the installation screen continues to tick over but no power on the fit bit as no blue tooth connection now or no screen display on the fit bit. Seriously unhappy as my son is mega upset

Have similar with my Inspire HR. It lasted 2 minutes once out of the box. Turned on long enough to do the initial connection to my phone (Android) app, hit the checking for updates screen and then went dark and i haven't been able to get it to turn back on or take a charge. Bricked in the first few minutes.

It’s ridiculous. Not sure Inspire is the correct name. It’s inspiring me to try another brand

I have the same problem with mine. It never worked properly from the minute it was taken out of the box. I’ve done everything, I’ve updated it, it’ll turn on for a second (Smiley face and then show me the time) and then immediately shut off again. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled several times, nothing works.
I have the original receipt and packaging but Kohl’s where I purchased it from won’t do anything past 30 days and Fitbit won’t do anything past 45 days. All I asked for was a replacement or refund and I was denied both by both companies. What a rip off!! Next time, I’ll just walk into Kohl’s with a handful of $20 bills and throw them around the store. And obviously I’m not the only person with this SAME EXACT ISSUE so I think it’s insane that they won’t do anything to correct the issue!! Never buying from Fitbit again

I purchased my FitBit Inspire HR July 15, 2019 through Amazon and yesterday the screen went blank. After charging it, all it does now is vibrate. The screen remains blank. What do I do now? Any suggestions? How do I return it for repairs without having a order number?

Update to my dilemma. I placed my Fitbit in it's charger and held down the button for 5 seconds. Hoping that this would re-calibrate it. I did this three times and like they say the third time is the charm. Back to working! Thank you Fitbit customer service!

Mine isn't even vibrating...I get nothing, and it keeps coming up saying Fitbit.com is down for maintenance.
It was working 3 hours ago, and now nothing! No flashing pulse taker. No nothing!
