-
themainapp (@themainapp) reported@FitbitSupport sent you multiple DMs about issue with my Fitbit air and received no response. Are you going to provide support or not?
-
@MikeBeach (@mike123qwe) reportedThe Charge 6 hardware is fine. The problem is the new Google Health app. What used to take one swipe now takes multiple taps and screens. I’ve already added a Garmin Vivosmart 5 to my Amazon cart—even though I just bought a Charge 6. Please bring back the classic Fitbit dashboard or give users a choice. To my Followers-if you agree RP! @fitbit @GoogleHealth @madebygoogle
-
MV Balaji (@MuVeeBalaji) reported@GoogleIndia @FitbitSupport The forced Google Health app update completely broke the backend syncing on my Fitbit Sense in India. Sequential EDA scans fail to register. Paid for premium hardware, left with an unreliable device. How do I get a refund or fix?
-
Kristin Mulvenna aka We Love You Austin (@kcsizzle) reported@FitbitSupport Are you going to fix the bug from March 2026, for the calorie deficit issues …
-

-
Van Gogh's Left Ear 🇺🇸 (@DennisH27411488) reported@FitbitSupport why can't we sync with the new fitbit/Google marriage? Why has the "Sync now" button been removed? Why can't I find a help screen in the updated app? You took an easy to follow app and made ridiculously more difficult.
-
Matthew Amick (@RunningAmick) reported@FitbitSupport Help! My Fitbit Charge 5 just completely stopped working yesterday. Can you help?
-
George Girgis ™ (@George_Girgis23) reported@FitbitSupport When will the outage be resolved?
-
aztecab (@aztecabhuijing) reported@FitbitSupport Hi, I'm contacting you to request a refund for my Fitbit Premium subscription which auto-renewed on April 15. It was an accidental renewal due to my oversight, and I haven't used the service since the charge. Could you please help me process a one-time refund?
-
Smurf (@SmurfMurp) reported@googlehealth @FitbitSupport Hi its working again now, without any interaction or changes from me, so it looks like it was a server issue at your side.
-
Sheena Watts (@Sheena81) reported@googlehealth I need help please I think my Fitbit is dying 😢 I've tried pressing the button & holding for 10 seconds but the logo keeps showing. I thought i fixed my watch but went back to the logo then goes black so I plug it back in & the logo comes back @FitbitSupport
-
andy elton (@EltonAndy) reported@FitbitSupport I have a permanent red light on the back of my charge 5 and no display on the front. I've done a hard reset using the charger cable. This fixed the problem, but less than 5 minutes later it's back to red light and no display. Please advise next steps.
-
Plan 9 From Outer Space (@edwoodplan9) reported@FitbitSupport my charge 6 will not sync to iPhone. tried all the “fixes”. Rebooted Charge 6. Uninstalled and reinstalled app. Turned phone off. When Charge 6 does appear in Bluetooth menu it’s missing info symbol that tells it to forget this device. Pls help.
-
Evin Lamar (@SocialMediaEvin) reportedThere are still a lot of bugs that this @googlehealth app needs to work out. While the @FitbitSupport Air a good product, its reliance on the app can make the experience trash when the app is inconsistent or lacks functionality to simplify the experience.
-
Matthew Halmshaw (@matthewhalmshaw) reported@FitbitSupport Sent you a DM. EE have done diagnostics on it and says its a battery fault which needs replacing. Hope you can help. Less than a year old
-
Jessica Young (@Jessicayoung_99) reported@clevermonkey93 @FitbitSupport I’m having the same issue with mine
-
Heidi McLoughlin (@heidimc2) reported@michelleormsby @FitbitSupport I think we all need to ditch Fitbit and move to something else. They haven’t even bothered replying but then it’s probably because they’re inundated with the same problem - the move to Google isn’t working! I’ve had fitbit watches for 10 years but this hassle isn’t worth it
-
Connie Jeffus (@nikbus99) reported@FitbitSupport was going to buy a new Fitbit, but it's impossible to sign in to the app, due to things migrating from old email and it will not let me create an account. Any other option besides getting a different device than Fitbit? Tech Support phone number?
-
David Klein (@DavidKlein719) reported@googlehealth This may bethe worst App; so slow and inferior to the original by @FitbitSupport .
-
Marty (@Marty_FTT) reported@actualstephen @Google @FitbitSupport This is why Garmin still wins on trust. They push firmware that adds features to 5-year-old watches instead of bricking them. Fitbit under Google has the worst update track record in wearables right now.
-
Greg (@Kygregb) reported@FitbitSupport Replacement service is the worst! Defective Fitbit was received by you on 4/23/26. The replacement is just now shipping out (after I had to contact their stupid chat to inquire about it) Hire real people to take care of this!
