Just bought a new Versa (One for my husband as well) and very frustrated. Tired every clock from the Fitbit app on Windows 10 and on the watch itself and keep getting "This clock cannot be installed on your device" for EVERY SINGLE FACE!!!

 

The device is paired to my computer using bluetooth and works well for syncs and updates so that can't be the problem. Can't use wireless as the room we are in simply won't connect to the Versa's weak wireless signal. All our other devices in this room (2 mobiles and a tablet and a laptop) all connect to wireless quite fine. Just the Versa can't.

 

Anyone got any ideas other than take it back?

It sounds as if the app is having problems connecting to the Versa to install a clock face .when I get this message I usually also get a message saying my Versa is not connected to the app .

 How to fix this - I'm not really sure. What works for me is to bring the app back to its home screen. Take a walk or wave my arm, the tracker will try and connect to the app. Once I see the steps increase I then try loading the clock. 

WiFi will help with the larger clocks but is not needed .

 

As for Wifi your phone or computer needs to be connected to the same network that you want to setup the Versa to .The app will communicate the wifi settings through the Bluetooth and the Versa will try and connect. If it fails the app should display the reason for the failure, if the Versa knows the reason.
