If you’ve recently changed time zones, updated your phone, or just want to ensure your Fitbit is showing the correct time, you might be wondering how to reset it. Fortunately, syncing and resetting the time on your Fitbit is a straightforward process. In this guide, we’ll walk you through each step so that you’re back on track in no time.
Understanding How Fitbit Syncs Time
Fitbit devices automatically sync their time based on the settings of the paired mobile device or computer. This means that when you change the settings on your phone or computer, your Fitbit will adjust accordingly during synchronization.
Ensure Your Device is Paired with Your Fitbit
Before you can reset the time on your Fitbit, make sure that it’s properly paired with your smartphone or computer. If you’re using a smartphone, ensure that Bluetooth is enabled and that your device is within range of your Fitbit. If using a computer, ensure that the USB dongle for syncing is properly connected.
Steps to Manually Sync Your Time
To manually sync and reset the time: 1. Open the Fitbit app on your mobile device. 2. Tap on ‘Today’ at the bottom of the screen. 3. Tap on your profile picture in the top left corner to access account settings. 4. Select ‘Advanced Settings’. 5. Toggle ‘All-Day Sync’ off then back on again; this forces a sync with no need for additional steps. After performing these actions, check if your device displays the correct time.
Adjusting Time Zone Settings in Your App
If syncing doesn’t resolve incorrect times due to regional differences (like daylight saving changes), follow these instructions: 1. In the Fitbit app under ‘Account’, select ‘Advanced Settings’. 2. Check if ‘Time Zone’ matches where you are currently located; if not, change it accordingly and save adjustments.
Restarting Your Fitbit Device
Sometimes a simple restart can help resolve issues related to incorrect display times on Fitbits: – For most models like Charge or Versa: Press and hold down buttons until you see fitbit logo (around 10-15 seconds). – For Inspire series: Place into charging dock while holding button until logo appears (also around 10 seconds). This will refresh system functionalities including time display. Once restarted check if synced accurately.
By following these easy steps, you’ll have successfully synchronized and reset the time displayed on your Fitbit device. Remember that keeping both your mobile app updated along with checking Bluetooth connections regularly will minimize any future discrepancies regarding timing issues.
