Hello and welcome to the Fitbit Community @NmSkibunny
I’m terribly sorry you’re experiencing syncing issues. It appears that you have not been able to sync for quite some time now. I would like an opportunity to assist you. I understand you have done some troubleshooting steps to rectify this issue. You didn’t mention which troubleshooting steps you tried. I do understand these steps are cumbersome but could you consider retrying these steps one more time? I know your excited and looking forward to getting that extremely prestigious Earth Badge! I think it’s worth a try.
I first looked to see if your iPhone 11 Pro is compatible with the Fitbit App. It is indeed compatible which is great news. Before starting these steps do make sure that your iPhone and the Fitbit App is updated. Please try these steps:
First let’s try restarting your Fitbit Tracker. Heres how:
- Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer or any UL-certified USB wall charger.
- Clip the other end of the charging cable to the port on the back of the tracker. The pins on the charging cable must lock securely with the port.
- Make sure the button on your tracker is aligned with the button opening on the charging cable. You’ll know the connection is secure when the tracker vibrates and you see a battery icon on your tracker’s display.
Now: press and hold the button on your tracker for 8 seconds. Release the button. When you see a smile icon and the tracker vibrates, the tracker restarted. Now unplug your Charge 3 and try to sync.
If your still experiencing issues try turning your Bluetooth off, restart your iPhone then turn your Bluetooth back on again once your iPhone restarts. Again, try to sync
If restarting and toggling the Bluetooth doesn’t help I would suggest force shut the App and restart. Here’s how:
Again, 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
If your syncing is still failing let’s try reinstalling the Fitbit App. You will not lose your data doing this.
Here’s how:
1. Log out of the Fitbit app and force shut the app by swiping up
2. uninstall the Fitbit App from your device
3. now completely shut down your device and wait about 1 min then restart your device
4. once your device has reloaded reinstall the Fitbit app by downloading it from the App Store
5. once it’s installed, log into your device as you normally would with username and password
6. don’t touch anything in the app...just wait until you get a prompt from your Bluetooth.
7. When prompted by your Bluetooth tap yes
8. now try to sync
If your still experiencing an issue try this last step: 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?
😃 Please let me know if this helped in anyway.
