Hi,
After latest app update for iphone this week I have issues with syncing and app is not showing me full data,
for example after many tries I managed to get data for today but still missing data in the app for yesterday,
also for today I am not able to see my heart rate or active minutes but can see steps and floors and cals.
One of my friends is seeing the same issue so it is not only me. Can you advise why this is happening and is this issue is being looked at and will be fixed soon?
Thanks,

Mine is doing the same, getting a bit fed up now went wrong last week and thought I'd sorted, now it looks like it's syncing then when done says last synced yesterday 07:21, and medium battery, battery is 100% so obviously not syncing, am getting messages and calendar entries though?

again. Seems like if you don't sync frequently it gets too full of data,
unable to sync and then the settings like the clock and battery start
showing the wrong readings

Where on the fitbit app does it tell you if you have the latest version? And is there a function to ensure it is automatically updated - given you seem to do a lot of patch updates?
UPDATE:
I had five days of syncing problems with Charge 3. It started working again only after i checked a locations permissions checkbox 'option' with a pop-up message that said syncing would not be possible without checking the box (not really an option then is it?).
Before this, i had tried restarting fitbit and reloading fitbit app - neither of which made any difference. I can't remember when or how the two checkbox options appeared about my location - may have been just after i reloaded the fitbit app. The bottom box was already checked but not the top one which was giving fitbit permission to track my location (i think). After i checked the box my fitbit instantaneously synced five days of data. I'm guessing it was a fitbit app patch change that caused my syncing problems, presumably adding that requirement.

Add me to the list of frustrated Charge 3 owners. Mine stopped syncing yesterday morning. I have spent the last hour+ going through this thread and trying all of the recommendations. No joy 🙁
I have a life to get on with so I guess I’ll live without my Fitbit till some figures this out.
Not a a happy camper!

I got mine bavk in sync by doing this:
On the watch clock-face, swipe right till you see "settings"
Tab on "settings"
Tab on "about"
You will see your version 28.20001
Tab on "clear user data"
Tab on "tick"
I lost all previous data of 14days, but at least I got it synced. It's been ok since 4weeks ago.
Good luck!
