Sense stuck on the Fitbit logo

We have THREE watches. One fitbit charge 5 and two fibit sense. ALL three are stuck at the logo. What is going on? How terrible are the watches that all 3 independent watches are no longer working? Is there a fix for these? Please don't just say restart the watch 3 times. I've tried resetting each watch at least 50 times each. I swear, I will never buy another fitbit in my lifetime if there's no fix.

Hi there, @papad9. It's nice to see you around the Fitbit Community Forums. Thanks for bringing this to my attention and for the troubleshooting steps you've tried. I'm sorry to hear that your Fitbit devices are stuck on the Fitbit logo. I understand your concern and how you must be feeling, I will do my best to help you with this!

As per the description of your post, it seems like your or all of the Fitbit devices haven't reset properly. With that being said, please try following the steps below in the order listed:

  • Unpair your Fitbit device(s) from your phone's Bluetooth and Fitbit app.
  • Unpair other Bluetooth devices that you may also have paired to your phone's Bluetooth settings.
  • Force quit the Fitbit app.
  • Turn off other Bluetooth connections when not in use. This can help to prevent connectivity issues or Bluetooth interference.
  • Shut off your phone and turn it on after 1-2 minutes.
  • Turn on the Bluetooth on your phone.
  • Plug it into the charging cable and open the Fitbit app.
  • Set up your Fitbit device(s).
  • If there is no connection, restart your Fitbit device(s).
  • Once your Fitbit device(s) is/are paired and syncing, please proceed to set up your other Bluetooth devices to your phone again. 

With the steps above, what I want you to do is to pair your device(s) first to your phone's Bluetooth settings before any other Bluetooth device is connected to your phone.

None of these work. I don't think you copy pasted the right fix because the watches are stuck on a loop with the logo. They do not sync with the phones. I have done all the steps but it changes nothing with the watches. What do I do now? These are three watches. We paid a total of $700+.

So i called. Apparently you guys have no fix for the problem and are just giving out coupon discounts of 35%. After buying 3 which were defective, why would anyone ever buy another fitbit?

Please respect your valued customers and don't lie to them. Saying the products are designed to last while there's a new post every 20 minutes talking about the same problem.
