Swimming with Inspire HR will ruin it

I want to spend my time reaching out to as many people as possible so that they do not buy a Fitbit Inspire HR.  It cannot go into a pool as advertise and the pins fall out of the band causing people to lose them. 

 

I bought two - one for me and one for my mom.  The first one fell off my wrist due to a known defect in the pins but since I could not locate the watch the warranty was void and I was offered a discount to buy a new watch.  My mom gave me back hers but I left that sit in a drawer for two years because I didn't want to risk losing it again.  I booted it up and wore it for a week and loved it again.  I took it swimming for 15 minutes.  It then malfunctioned and will not turn on.  Also, a known issue.  But since it is outside the warranty, offered a discount again to buy another one.  Why on earth would I invest in another Fitbit after I bought two with known malfunctions happening and the response from the company is that the US has a 1 year warranty period and there is nothing that can be done?!  So in summary, DO NOT BUY A FITBIT INSPIRE.  So many known issues if you read though other posts.  Hope I help you save money and frustration

I've had an inspire HR for 2 years, and have gone swimming with it and dropped it way to many times and its still in good condition. I fo have a case where water gets trapped in (in the screenprotector part), but the fitbit itself is fine. Mabye yours is malfunctioning?

Definitely malfunctioning.  None of the troubleshooting or reset tricks work.  Sad to see it go in the trash 😞
