Hi, I cannot find my versa in the list of Bluetooth devise from my iPhone XS. I used to be able to syn properly . Then suddenly versa could not pick up the Bluetooth signal n I could not syn my workout to the Fitbit app. I remove versa from the Fitbit app, on n off versa and the Bluetooth setting as advised by the posts online, but still it doesn’t work. I hv now removed all Bluetooth devices from my phone too , and then try to add versa back to the Bluetooth , but I could not find versa in the list of devices detached .. please advise what to do next.

Hello and welcome to the Fitbit Community @KOHA 

I understand you’re experiencing syncing issues and your Bluetooth is not recognizing your Fitbit Versa.

 

Let’s try restarting your Fitbit Versa first: Heres how:

https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1186

If your still experiencing issues try turning your Bluetooth off then back on again.

 

If Restarting and toggling the Bluetooth doesn’t help I would suggest force shut the App and restart. Here’s how:

Turn off your Bluetooth 

log out of the Fitbit App

completely shut down your device, wait 1-2 mins then restart your device 

once your device fully loads enable your Bluetooth again 

now log back into your Fitbit App as you normally would with your email address and password 

now sync your device 

 

Lastly please check your iOS settings if this problem persist and try this:

  1. Open your phone's settings.
  2. Scroll down, tap Fitbit > Toggle Location to "Always".
  3. Ensure toggles next to Bluetooth and Background App Refresh are turned ON.

😃 Hopefully these suggestions resolve your syncing issue. Please keep me updated on your progress.

Hi MegaBite, thank you for responding to me!

i followed your instruction but still unable to detect the device on my phone Bluetooth. 
I have also my mistake set Versa to factory condition, so now the Watch face indicate me to download Fitbit app to start... 

I hv gone to my phone iOS setting , but for some reason the toggle next to ‘Background App Refresh’ is disabled... see attached pictures. I hv a feeling this is a big issue😓

Kindly advise how I Shd continue....
