My Versa screen just went black. I tried recharging it and restarting it but nothing seems to turn the screen on. I feel it vibrate when I receive messages and its still counting steps onto my phone app. Please help/advise

The same thing happened to me and mine started yesterday. I noticed the day before I stopped getting alerts from my phone. Now it is either all back, or has black out spots.

Hi there @Zayn92 and @Roae, welcome to the Community Forums. Thanks for the details provided about your Versa smartwatches' screen behavior and for trying to resolve this prior to posting here.
As per the description of your posts, it seems that your watches are still syncing. So, I'd recommend switching to a Fitbit clock face if you're using a third party clock face: How do I change the clock face on my Fitbit device?. Don't worry if you cannot see anything on the display by now, this process is done through the Fitbit app.
Also, I'd like you to please confirm if you've restarted your device by following the steps from this help article: How do I restart my Fitbit device?
Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Mine are through a fully charged battery yesterday after changing on its own so a new face. Woke up this morning to a black screen and I have tried several Fitbit faces and restarted it at least 20 times... at least I think I have because I can not see anything.

I received an initial email which I responded to but have not received any further communication. Given the number of people with same issue of black screen this appears to be a Fitbit issue. Please help! Still syncing, lights continue to work on back of watch. Have tried restarting, changing clock faces and charging. Not much else a person can do with a black screen!
