Have had my Versa for about 3 months now and for the past few weeks it has been dying fast usually last 4 1/2 -5 days and now it dies within a day 1 1/2 . Help, what should I do?
I love my watch, would hate to stop wearing it. Can some one please help me resolve this issue? The reason I got this watch was cause the battery life.

Im having the SAME issue. After two rounds of support calls, they sent me a new chargeer in which I need to test as well.

No I had to call the support line and they asked me to test my versa by turning everything off call notifications text em mails reminders ect. Which I think is dumb my versa battery life was really good before and I had everything on now it just feels like a bracelet they ever had me turn off the auto wake all of this till it dies which I have done as instructed started this test on the 16 and it's only at 34% and today is the 21st which I would love if it had everything else on I have to let it die completely before I call to let them know how long it lasted u will keep you updated as to what they tell me

I have done all of the above and the battery still does not hold a charge. It is not the contacts or the computer or the apps. Defiately a battery issue.
I fully recharged last night at 10pm. This morning by 8am it was 35% - 10 hours later with using none of the exercise apps. it was only set for my sleep pattern and pulse.

I received my versa for Christmas and over the last two weeks the charge lasts less than 24 hours. I no longer have notifications or messages coming through. I am so fed up I have gone back to my glitchy Alta that I have had for about 3 years.

How do you get to live chat please? My Versa died last Friday & I tried every trick everyone posted in the forum. I ordered those replacement chargers from Amazon & they should be here tomorrow. I bought mine in late October 2018 from QVC & still have 1 payment left to make.

Hi @Tmg29, I hope you are doin' fine! It is sad to see you leaving the Fitbit family. But please keep in mind, if you have further questions or comments, please let me know!

Well sadly the chargers from Amazon dud not work. Then I got the replacement charger from Fitbit & watch has been in cradle for 24 hours now still with 0% battery. So now what do I do. I'm livid to think I'm going to be making my last payment on a nonexistent watch

I'm sorry to hear about this inconvenience, @Missyb57. The battery issue might be with the Versa itself, but I can't guarantee anything. My best advice would be to get in touch with Fitbit Support again, and explain them your situation, so they can find a solution for you as soon as possible.
Keep me updated!
