Tried to set new one up to my iphone, but it will not connect says it has found it but nothing!

I have followed the steps at least 6 times!!

Time is also out by an hour too, not happy 😞

Hope someone can help 🙂

The time is still off because when the tracker gets paired to the account, it will sync with your phone and display the time on it. Did you remove the old tracker from the account and the Bluetooth settings on your phone? If so, please try these steps one more time:

 

  1. Restart your Charge HR and leave it plugged in and charging
  2. Restart your iOS device
  3. Turn off the Bluetooth on your phone, wait for 10 seconds and turn it back on
  4. Try to set it up one more time.

In case it's still not setting up, my best recommendation would be contacting our Support Team; let them know the steps you've performed so far, I'm sure they will be more than happy to assist you further. 

 

Thank you for keeping me updated, let me know if there's anything else I can do for you! Smiley Wink

Hello @beth1010, and welcome to the Fitbit Community! Smiley Happy

 

It is possible that your previous tracker is still connected to the Bluetooth your phone, which is why it's unable to find your new tracker. To remove it, please go to the Bluetooth settings and check if "Charge HR" is on the list of paired devices; if it is, tap on it and select Forget this device. Then, restart your phone and try to set up your replacement once more. Additionally, it could be very helpful to reset your tracker in case it's still not being found by the phone. 

 

Give it a try and keep me posted if you need anything else! Smiley Wink

Have removed old device from Bluetooth. Have rebooted iPhone. Have turned Alta on and off by connecting charging cable and pressing button 3 times. The screen still freezes on either the connecting with your Fitbit page or after the 4 digit code has been entered. What now?
