Common Problems and Troubleshooting
While changing the time on your Fitbit is a straightforward process, you may encounter a few issues. Here are some common problems and their troubleshooting solutions:
- The clock isn’t syncing with your phone: Go to the Fitbit app in your phone’s settings and turn off Bluetooth. Turn it back on, then try to sync the devices again. If that doesn’t work, restart both your phone and Fitbit and try again.
- The time is off by an hour: This could be due to daylight saving time. If your Fitbit isn’t set to automatically adjust for DST, you’ll need to manually change the time. Go to the “Advanced Settings” option in the Fitbit app and turn off automatic time zone, then enter your correct time zone.
To prevent these issues from occurring in the future, make sure your Fitbit’s software is up-to-date and always keep your phone’s Bluetooth on and connected to your Fitbit.
Comparing Different Fitbit Models
Depending on the Fitbit model you have, the process for changing the time may differ. Here’s how it differs across different models:
| Fitbit Model | Time Change Steps |
|---|---|
| Fitbit Blaze | Select “Settings” from the clock face screen, then select “Clock Faces,” and choose your preferred display. |
| Fitbit Alta HR | Swipe left to access the clock, press and hold the button on the left-hand side, then scroll down to “Clock Faces” and select yours. |
| Fitbit Versa | In the Fitbit app, go to your device screen and tap “Clock Faces,” then select your preferred display and hit “Sync.” |
