Hello @Gabo1107, thanks for joining the Fitbit Community, it's great to see new faces around! Smiley Happy

 

Please note that the Fitbit app is only available to the App Store in mobile devices. If you'd like to sync your tracker with your Mac computer, please check our set up page, where you will be able to found the link that will redirect you to download the Fitbit Connect installer that will work with your computer. Please note that if your Mac does not have native Bluetooth you will need a USB dongle for your tracker to sync with a computer.

 

I hope this can be helpful, if there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply, I'll be happy to help.

I've gone to the setup page and there appears to be no option to download the app onto my Mac.  It says "This app is only available on the App Store for iOS devices".

 

Help!

 

UPDATE:

Never mind!  Was too quick on the keys.  Figured it out.

Hello @VistaUser, thanks for joining the conversation, it's a pleasure for me to welcome you to the Fitbit Community. Smiley Happy

 

I appreciate you have shared your experience with me. Please note that in order to set up your Versa with your Mac Computer you will need to download the Fitbit Connect software from our Setup page

Make sure to select Mac for the site to refresh and let you download the executable (.dmg) for your Mac. Then, follow these steps:

 

  1. If your computer isn’t Bluetooth-enabled, insert a wireless sync dongle into a USB port on your computer.
  2. After installing, when prompted, choose Set up a New Fitbit Device
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to create a Fitbit account and connect your device. 

I hope this can be helpful, if there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply.

Hello @estara, I hope you're doing well, it's nice to see you around. Smiley Happy

 

I appreciate your participation in the forums and for sharing your findings. I have double checked with our development team and in fact, The Fitbit Versa, Ionic, Ace and Aria 2 can't be set up through Fitbit Connect on a Mac computer. At this moment I would like to advise you to try using a mobile device (such as an smartphone or tablet) to set up your Fitbit Versa. 

 

I sincerely apologize for the misunderstanding and for the inconveniences this situation has caused you. If there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply.

Most of the time I would spend on the app would not be on the go, but at
home on the laptop when I can look at stats and other information on the
app. Would be nice to be able to get Fitbit Connect for Versa on the
laptop. What would prevent developers from doing this?
