Hi @Just2fab - normally a vibration is associated with poor charging (and a popup on the display), try cleaning the contacts or even changing power source.

In case it comes from a clock face try changing to another while charging.

If it is really annoying, sync before charging, place on charge, then in watch Settings do a Shutdown.

If you use the SimpleClockPro clock face for charging it will tell you when it will be charged and you can come back and turn it on then to check, by pressing the button a few seconds.

Hi there, @Just2fab. Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I understand your concern, we're here to help you! 

In addition to the great tips recommended by @Guy_, since this is happening when charging your Inspire 3, please find below some tips to best charge Fitbit devices:

  • Use only genuine Fitbit charging cables
  • Use only UL-certified wall chargers
  • Avoid USB battery packs
  • Charge at room temperature

For charging purposes, your charging cable or your base station can be plugged into any USB power source, including but not limited to:

  • A computer
  • A Wall A/C to USB adapter, commonly found with smartphones
  • A DC to USB adapter (vehicle power port)
