Versa stopped tracking my heart rate

A few days ago, for no apparent reason my Versa stopped monitoring heart rate. Its also not recording exercise or sleep!! The led behind the clock stays off. I’ve tried updating, rebooting, factory reset and switching the heart rate setting on/off. Nothing works. Anything else I could try?

 

It was purchased new less than 12 months ago so to say I'm unhappy is an understatement!!!!

Hi there, @sabrine-27. Welcome to the Community Forums. Thanks for trying to troubleshoot the issue with your Versa 2 before reaching out. 

 

Before considering other options, please make sure you've followed the steps below:

 

  • Switch the Heart Rate settings from On to Off and manually sync your watch. To switch the heart rate settings on your watch, from the main screen of your watch, swipe left until you see "Settings", next swipe up until you see "Heart Rate" and switch it to Off.
  • Once it's done, manually sync your Versa 2. To do so, open the Fitbit app, tap on the Account icon, tap on your Versa 2's image and tap on "Sync Now" 
  • Next, switch it from Off to On and manually sync your watch once again. 
  • Once it's done, restart your watch.
  • Next, confirm that your tracker is snug on your wrist (the lights shouldn't be visible) We also recommend when you're not exercising, wear the tracker just above the wrist bone.

Hope this helps.
