Have already had to replace after a year, had this one for 11 months and it has done the same thing. Said it was low battery, died after it said 25% now won't charge. Have tried numerous trouble shooting options nothing is working.

Hi there @KayJay08, thanks for stopping by in the Community Forums. I'm sorry to hear that your Versa is not turning on or charging. Thanks for letting me know that you've tried all the tips and recommendations provided in the forums to fix your watch, I'll be glad to assist you with this.
As per the description of your post it seems that the battery of your Fitbit may not be charging properly and therefore does not turn on. I recommend that you follow these steps (or please confirm that you've followed them as described below):
If the above steps don't work, please follow the next steps to perform a factory reset on your device:
Take in consideration that a factory reset deletes any stored data, which includes all data that hasn't synced to your Fitbit account and your applications, alarms, etc.
I'll be waiting for your reply if further assistance is needed.

Mine will not respond to any of the above. What’s next ? I can’t seem to get any help from you guys. Super disappointed.

Have gone through all steps, try to reset doesn't do anything, no lights, nothing on screen , no vibration. Had on charger a full day. It was warm when I took it off so I know components are connecting properly.

I'm having exactly the same problem. Cleaned the contacts, held the three buttons in until my fingers hurt (more than three minutes) and nothing... no signs of life. I DO see what looks like condensation inside the heart beat sensors though. Wondering if the moisture seal failed.

I too am having the same issues as reported.
I have followed all of the instructions on how to clean etc.
I have purchased a new charger from Fitbit and my Versa is still not charging
I do have a question are you able to be able to "reset" your Versa if it is completely dead? Although I have tried holding in the buttons until my fingers hurt nothing is working.
I have had my Versa for maybe 2 1/2 years if what i can find for purchase history is for the Versa.. I have ordered multiple Fitbits in the past. For myself and as gifts.
Per my dashboard on my phone it shows the last date it synced was on 6/7/20 with a version of 70.7.14 and it shows battery life of medium..
Is it time to change to a Charge4 Fitbit?
So frustrating that all of a sudden it no longer works.. Do they have a short lifespan?

Hello @KayJay08, @RonnieAB, and @Sleves01. Thanks for all the details shared in your posts about your Versa smartwatches' behavior and for your efforts in fixing them. We‘re taking into consideration your comments and sentiments with regards to our products and services.
Since this sounds a bit more serious, I've created a support case on your behalf - you soon receive an email from Customer Support at the email you used to register with the Community forums. Due to recent events affecting our operations, support options are limited and wait times are longer than usual.
Hey @Sleves01! In regards to your inquiries, you can reset the Versa even when the screen is totally black, if you feel a vibration when connecting it to the charger, a restart can be done. About the longevity, our products are indeed designed and made to last (this goes for each product component) however, there is not an infallible way to ensure that no issues will be present in the long run. Because of this, our Warranty Policy is set into providing as much coverage as we can.
I'll be around if there's anything else I may do for you in the meantime.

Hi.
I'm also having a similar problem. Last night my versa was wet it started going to the alarm on its own and then I took it off and out of the water and now it won't turn on. When I tried to charge it, it became very hot. I tried holding 3 buttons and the back and lower button and nothing happened. Please help! 😰

Of course they can not help me only offer 25% off a new watch. This watch is not even two years old and has been well taken care of. I’m beyond disappointed.

Well I too just got the 25% discount on a new fit bit so apparently that means we have no idea how to resolve your issue
Now to make a decision on which one
Charge 4 where I cannot use wireless headphones or Versa 2 where I don’t need or want Alexa unless I can turn that ability off
Was really hoping for a solution on the one I currently have
Very Disappointing

I wanted to report back that I called customer service and the reset worked on my phone.
This is the second time customer service from FitBit has impressed me. I am so very happy LOL.

I have had the same issue and i have tried to do all that support has given me. I'm not sure what else i can do. I really don't want to get a new one.

I am so sorry. I know how you feel. I think the versa 2 is too large so I'm happy to stay with the versa 1. I hope your versa comes back for you!
