Hello,
Please help. I'm honestly SO frustrated! I previously had an inspire 3 that wouldn't stay connected to my phone, so after a year of having to uninstall and reinstall the app almost daily, I opted for a Versa 3.
Well, I have even had the Versa 3 for a full week and I already have the same issue! I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it just last night and low and behold, this morning my watch no longer receives notifications!
In the app it says, "Notification service not running. A phone restart is required to re-enable notifications on your tracker." A phone restart has NEVER worked. Things I've tried:
As mentioned , the last step is the only thing that works, but please tell me I'm not going to have to do this EVERY SINGLE DAY for the rest of my time with it ?!

Hi there, @HollAll. Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums. Thanks for bringing this to my attention and for the troubleshooting steps you've tried. I'm sorry to hear that your Versa 3 is still not staying connected to your phone's Bluetooth. I understand how you must be feeling, I will do my best to help you with this.
Since you're getting this error message “Notification service is not running. A phone restart is required to re-enable notifications on your tracker”, I'd like to provide the following steps that actually work for Huawei users, but if you own an Android device I will recommend giving them a try as well:
Note that you may see a message on your phone related to power consumption and apps scanning in the background. If you follow the steps in this message, the Fitbit app can’t run in the background and certain features may not work properly. Repeat the steps above to enable the Fitbit app to run in the background.
