Hello!
I know Fitbit has been having issues with the update on iPhone but I’m at my whits end. I stopped getting text messages after the iPhone update. About a week ago I stopped get any notifications; no calls, no texts, nothing. I have gone through the list of tips that Fitbit has offered (making sure Bluetooth is on. Checking to make sure my test message say allow. Checking the Fitbit app to make sure it’s all good there.). I noticed that my Fitbit app would have to load the steps etc after I opened the app even though I have the all day sync on.
Today I decided to do a factory reset. After the reset, My Fitbit app said the versa lite needs an update (I feel like I’ve updated it 2 times already since this issue). Since the reset, the Fitbit has been unable to update or start up. It’s in this stuck phase of trying to update but just for 10% it takes 2 hours and than my Fitbit gives up and the app tells me the update failed. It’s currently stuck on the Fitbit logo.
Please Help me. I’m at the point where I may beg Fitbit for a new device.

Hello again @Ssaxon9917
Lets start this Firmware update fresh again.
Now, before you begin the firmware update, make sure your watch is plugged into the charger and in range of your Wi-Fi network during the update. For best results, use your home or work Wi-Fi network. If you've never connected your watch to WiFi, see How do I connect my Fitbit watch to Wi-Fi?. If your Versa is having trouble updating with WiFi, please try the following:
If the update fails, restart your mobile device and try to update again. If your Versa can't update over WiFi follow the on-screen instructions in the Fitbit app to update your watch over Bluetooth instead. Note that firmware updates over Bluetooth may take significantly longer to complete. If the Versa is having trouble updating through Bluetooth try the following:
😃 please come back and keep me posted

Hello again @Ssaxon9917
Im sorry for the slow response. No I’m not able to converse with you on the phone. I don’t work for Fitbit. I am a volunteer for Fitbit. But if you feel that you would be better suited to converse with someone verbally over the phone during the set up I would suggest calling Fitbit Customer Service. You can contact here: https://help.fitbit.com/?l=en_US&cu=1&fs=ContactUs&co=GB
If you want to try and proceed please make sure that your trying to connect to a compatible WiFi. and that your not below 25% on your battery level on your Versa. Your Fitbit watch can connect to open, WEP, WPA personal, and WPA2 personal Wi-Fi networks. Your watch won’t connect to 5GHz, 802.11ac, WPA enterprise, or public Wi-Fi networks that require logins, subscriptions, or profiles.
Please look here to help troubleshoot why you can’t connect to your WiFi. Pay SPECIAL ATTENTION to the Step 1 and Step 2 listed: https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/2249/?q=WiFi&l=en_US&fs=Search&pn=1#Add
