Your versa will track your activity on its own without your phone with no problem. You'll only need to take your phone with you if you want to make use of the phone's GPS or if you want to get notifications (emails, texts etc) from your phone.

 

You do need your phone and a bluetooth connection to sync data from your fitbit to the fitbit servers so that you can see your data in the app. It's worth doing this at least once a day but it can go a week without syncing and will catch up when it does.

 

It's worth having a look through the manual if this is a bit daunting:
