Hi, hoping someone can assist, new Iphone XR, unable to pair Ionic, Notifications returns spinning gear, I have tried restart, removed app from device, re-applied (now does not recognise/find Ionic) currently working off a mobile tracker app.  I have checked with Apple, advised XR working fine. Any assistance appreciated.

I appreciate your participation in the Forums and for sharing your experience with us. I would also like to thank you for letting us know about the troubleshooting steps you've treid so far. At this moment, if you're still having trouble setting up your Fibit Ionic, I would like to suggest you the following steps in order:

 

  1. Turn off Bluetooth on your phone; wait 10 seconds, and then turn it back on.
  2. Make sure you have a strong WiFi signal and that there are no other Bluetooth devices around that might interfere with the setup process.
  3. Restart your Ionic by pressing and holding the Back and Select buttons (left and bottom right) until you see the Fitbit logo on the screen, then try to set up again.
  4. If you can't set up after a restart, reboot your phone or tablet and try to set up again.
  5. If you can't set up after the reboot, remove all other Fitbit devices from your account and from the list of connected Bluetooth devices on your phone or tablet and try to set up the Ionicone more time. 

I hope this can be helfpul, give it a try and let us know the outcome.
