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 a good place to start before trying to get in contact with Fitbit’s official support team.

Do this before you contact Fitbit Support

1. Make sure you verify your Fitbit warranty coverage
   1. For US customers, this is 1 year and for EU customers 2 years from the date of purchase for new products and 90 days for refurbished devices
2. Have the serial number for your device available
3. Know your Fitbit account details, including the email associated with the Fitbit app and your device

Using Fitbit’s app

If you own a Fitbit device, it’s highly likely that you use the Fitbit app on a supported mobile device, like your Android smartphone or Apple iPhone. So why not start there to get some assistance!

1. Open the Fitbit app on a device you sync with
2. At the top, tap your profile picture or icon
3. Scroll down and choose Help
4. Tap Contact Customer Support
5. Choose @FitbitSupport to open Twitter and send Fitbit’s customer service a tweet about your issue. Fitbit says someone should reply to your tweet within 6 hours or less
6. Another option is to select Fitbit Community, where other users post questions and answers in a user-driven forum. Try searching for your issue and see what other Fitbit wearers have to say!

Fitbit’s live chat feature

Probably our favorite way to reach out to Fitbit Help (or any company) is via Live Chat.

Fill out the details of the form, including your name, the email address you use with your Fitbit account, device type, and issue. Then, press Request Chat, and a confirmation screen lists your place in line for the next available agent.

When you live chat with Fitbit Help, that conversation is always private (unlike Twitter.) Once Live Chat is available, you communicate with the agent via the chatbox and press Send.

You can save or end the chat at any point by tapping the upper buttons in the chat window.

At the end of every Live Chat session, you also have the option to download the transcript of your entire chat as reference (unlike a phone call.)

In the US, Fitbit supports Live Chat 24/7. However, for the rest of the world, Fitbit does not offer 24-hour Live Chat service.

However, if you see the Live Chat option active (not grayed out) and it says start a chat with us now on this support page, then Live Chat is open for your questions!

Live chatting with Fitbit’s customer support is often the fastest way to reach someone at Fitbit.

If you experience problems with Live Chat, your next best option is Twitter.

Use Twitter to send an instant message to Fitbit

Twitter is one of Fitbit’s preferred ways to get help. Just open Twitter and type in and then send your message and any supporting photos to @FitbitSupport.

Just be mindful that your tweet is public, not private. If you want to send private communication, use Fitbit’s Live Chat, call Fitbit support, or send an email.

When you tweet @FitbitSupport, you normally receive a reply within 6 hours.

Fitbit’s support team can then provide you guidance, links to support articles and how-tos, set-up a private message catch, and if needed, create a unique case for you to get further technical support.

Contact Fitbit using Facebook & Facebook Messenger

If you frequently use social media to reach customer service, you can also contact Fitbit via its Facebook page and/or send a message with Facebook Messenger.

Fitbit does not currently offer a Facebook page for support issues only, so when you contact Fitbit via Facebook, you reach the general Fitbit page.

Ways to reach Fitbit via Facebook including sending a message using the Send Message or Message button or submit a comment on a particular post.

Similar to Twitter, when you send communications to Fitbit via Facebook and Messenger, those messages are public, not private.

Response times when using Facebook and Messenger are about 1 day. If you’re looking for faster service, try Twitter or use Fitbit’s Live Chat feature.
