Hello and welcome to the Fitbit community @RickCHL 

Thank you for coming to the community with your question. I understand you’re experiencing Bluetooth/syncing issues. Let’s try a few troubleshooting steps to see if that doesn’t resolve the issue.

Let’s first  try restarting your Fitbit Tracker. 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 

 

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.

If your still experiencing an issue try this: please go to the Bluetooth settings on your phone and remove the tracker. In the list of Bluetooth devices you'll see the Fitbit Tracker and next to it, this symbol "!". Hit the symbol and it will take you to the next step, once you're there select the option that says "Forget this device" or "Unpair". Once you've made sure about that, go back to the Fitbit app,, tap your profile picture then scroll down and select "Set up a Device". This should start the setup process for your device. Just follow the instructions as they come.

 

If the issue is not solved after the above steps, please take a look at the help articles: Why can't I set up my Fitbit device? or  Why won't my Fitbit device sync?

 

😃 Hopefully these suggestions resolve your syncing issue. Please let me know If this does indeed resolve your issue and if so could you please tap the “Choose as best Answer” box just under my post? Doing so really helps other individuals who come to this community looking for answers to questions similar to your own. I’d really appreciate it!
