My Versa screen has vertical lines and appears pixelated. Any ideas?

@gblevs have you tried rebooting your tracker by pressing and holding the left and bottom right buttons until Fitbit logo appears? If this does not help have you tried factory reset (restoring tracker to factory defaults)? This will wipe your Versa so it would be good if you could sync first. I hope your screen is visible at least partially as you will need to tap on Settings app on your Versa, scroll down to About on the bottom and tap Factory reset. You will also need to remove the tracker from the paired devices list in the Bluetooth settings of your phone and reboot your phone. Finally, after factory reset is complete, you will need to set up Versa again by adding it in the Fitbit mobile app as a replacement device.
If this does not work, you might need to reach out to Customer Support to guide you through the next steps. Here's the link to Customer Support page.

@gblevs Welcome to our Fitbit Community! I'm happy to assist you with your Fitbit Versa since the screen shows vertical lines.
In addition to the great troubleshooting steps that shared @Marrrmaduke, please try changing the clock face to one that is developed by Fitbit. After this, sync your tracker and see if the screen gets fixed.
Keep @Marrrmaduke and me posted on the outcome!

Clock face has faded to extent can barely see what's on it. Tried resyncing that got rid of vertical lines. But now it's even worse!
