Try the Fitbit Community
If you like doing it yourself, you might want to check out what other Fitbit users have to say using the Fitbit Community website.
The Fitbit Community is a user forum where regular Fitbit device users exchange troubleshooting tips, fixes, complaints, advice, and so forth.
If you don’t like reading through a lot of information to find a possible answer, the community might not be the best fit for you.
But, if you enjoy testing things out and have time to try different things, the Fitbit community is an excellent place to start before contacting Fitbit’s official support team.
- For US customers, this is one year, and for EU customers, two years from the date of purchase for new products and 90 days for refurbished devices.
Fitbit recommends using their Live Chat or Twitter option for the fastest service. Phone service is available as well but within a limited-service schedule. Other support options include emailing Fitbit support directly or contacting Fitbit using Facebook and Messenger.
