Get started
Welcome to Fitbit Versa, an all-day companion that lasts 4+ days and uses
personalized insights, music, and more to help you reach your goals. Take a
moment to review our complete safety information at
http://www.fitbit.com/safety.
The detachable bands on Versa come in a variety of colors and materials, sold
separately.
6
Set up Versa
For the best experience, use the Fitbit app for iPhones and iPads or Android
phones. You can also set up Versa on Windows 10 devices. If you don’t have a
compatible phone or tablet, use a Bluetooth-enabled Windows 10 PC. Keep in mind
that a phone is required for call, text, calendar, and smartphone app notifications.
To create a Fitbit account, you're prompted to enter your birthdate, height, weight,
and sex to calculate your stride length and to estimate distance, basal metabolic
rate, and calorie burn. After you set up your account, your first name, last initial, and
profile picture are visible to all other Fitbit users. You have the option to share other
information, but most of the information you provide to create an account is private
by default.
To charge Versa:
1. Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer, a UL-certified
USB wall charger, or another low-energy charging device.
2. Pinch the clip and place Versa in the charging cradle. The pins on the charging
cradle must align with the gold contacts on the back of the watch. The
percent charged appears on screen.
7
While the watch charges, tap the screen twice to turn the screen on and check the
battery level. Tap again to use Versa.
To get started:
8
1. Download the Fitbit app:
l Apple App Store for iPhones and iPads
When you're done with setup, read through the guide to learn more about your
new watch and then explore the Fitbit app.
1. Click the Start button on your PC and open the Microsoft Store.
2. Search for "Fitbit app". After you find it, click Free to download the app to
your computer.
3. Click Microsoft account to sign in with your existing Microsoft account. If you
don't already have an account with Microsoft, follow the on-screen instructions
to create a new account.
4. Open the app.
l If you already have a Fitbit account, log in to your account, and tap the
9
When you're done with setup, read through the guide to learn more about your
new watch and then explore the Fitbit app.
Connect to Wi-Fi
During setup, you're prompted to connect Versa to your Wi-Fi network. Versa uses
Wi-Fi to more quickly download playlists and apps from the Fitbit App Gallery, and
for faster, more reliable OS updates.
Versa can connect to open, WEP, WPA personal, and WPA2 personal Wi-Fi
networks. Your watch won't connect to 5GHz, WPA enterprise, or public Wi-Fi
networks that require more than a password to connect—for example, logins,
subscriptions, or profiles. If you see fields for a username or domain when
connecting to the Wi-Fi network on a computer, the network isn't supported.
For best results, connect Versa to your home Wi-Fi network. Make sure you know
the network password before connecting.
Wear Versa
Place Versa around your wrist. If you need to attach a different size band, or if you
purchased another band, see the instructions in "Change the band" on page 12.
10
For optimized heart-rate tracking while exercising:
l During a workout, experiment with wearing your watch a bit higher on your
wrist for an improved fit. Many exercises, such as bike riding or weight lifting,
cause you to bend your wrist frequently, which could interfere with the heart-
rate signal if the watch is lower on your wrist.
l Wear your watch on top of your wrist, and make sure the back of the device is
in contact with your skin.
l Consider tightening your band before a workout and loosening it when you’re
done. The band should be snug but not constricting (a tight band restricts
blood flow, potentially affecting the heart-rate signal).
11
Handedness
For greater accuracy, you must specify whether you wear Versa on your dominant
or non-dominant hand. Your dominant hand is the one you use for writing and
eating. To start, the Wrist setting is set to non-dominant. If you wear Versa on your
dominant hand, change the Wrist setting in the Fitbit app:
From the Today tab in the Fitbit app, tap your profile picture > Versa tile
> Wrist > Dominant.
Remove a band
1. Turn over Versa and find the quick-release lever.
2. While pressing the quick-release lever inward, gently pull the band away from
the watch to release it.
12
3. Repeat on the other side.
Attach a band
1. To attach a band, hold the band at a 45° angle and slide the pin (the side
opposite the quick-release lever) into the notch on the watch.
2. While pressing the quick-release lever inward, slide the other end of the band
into place.
13
3. When both ends of the pin are inserted, release the quick-release lever.

Timekeeping
Alarms vibrate to wake or alert you at a time you set. Set up to 8 alarms to occur
once or on multiple days of the week. You can also time events with the stopwatch
or set a countdown timer.
When setting an alarm, turn on Smart Wake to allow your watch to find the best
time to wake you starting 30 minutes before the alarm time you set. It avoids
waking you during deep sleep so you're more likely to wake up feeling refreshed. If
Smart Wake can’t find the best time to wake you, your alarm alerts you at the set
time.
Snooze the alarm as many times as you want. Versa automatically goes into snooze
mode if you ignore the alarm for more than 1 minute.

You can add up to 6 payment cards to the Wallet and choose which card to set as
the default payment option on your watch.
Make purchases
Make purchases using Fitbit Pay at any store that accepts contactless payments. To
determine if the store accepts Fitbit Pay, look for the symbol below on the payment
terminal:
l Swipe down from the top of the screen and tap the Fitbit Pay icon if
you chose a different button shortcut.
2. If prompted, enter your 4-digit watch PIN code. Your default card appears on
the screen.
55
3. To pay with your default card, hold your wrist near the payment terminal. To
pay with a different card, swipe to find the card you want to use, and hold
your wrist near the payment terminal.
Customers in Australia:
1. If you have a credit or debit card from an Australian bank, hold your watch
near the payment terminal to pay. If your card is from a bank outside of
Australia, or if you wish to pay with a card that is not your default card,
complete steps 1-3 in the section above.
2. If prompted, enter your 4-digit watch PIN code.
3. If the purchase amount exceeds $100 AU, follow the instructions on the
payment terminal. If prompted for a PIN code, enter the PIN code for your
card (not your watch).
56
When the payment succeeds, your watch vibrates and you see a confirmation on
the screen.
If the payment terminal doesn't recognize Fitbit Pay, make sure the watch face is
near the reader and that the cashier knows you're using a contactless payment.
For added security, you must wear Versa on your wrist to use Fitbit Pay.
1. From the Today tab in the Fitbit app, tap your profile picture > Versa tile.
2. Tap the Wallet tile.
3. Find the card you want to set as the default option.
4. Tap Set as Default on Versa.

start and end of your trip. Make sure your device is charged before beginning your
trip.

Update, Restart, and Erase
Some troubleshooting steps may require you to restart your watch, while erasing it
is useful if you want to give Versa to another person. Update your watch to receive
new Fitbit OS updates.
Restart Versa
To restart your watch, press and hold the back and bottom buttons for a few
seconds until you see the Fitbit logo on the screen.
Restarting your watch reboots the device but doesn't delete any data.
Versa has a small hole (altimeter sensor) on the back of the device. Don’t attempt to
restart your device by inserting any items, such as paper clips, into this hole as you
can damage your watch.
Erase Versa
If you want to give Versa to another person or wish to return it, first clear your
personal data:
Update Versa
Update your watch to get the latest feature enhancements and product updates.
When an update is ready to install, a notification appears in the Fitbit app. After you
start the update, a progress bar appears on Versa and in the Fitbit app as the
update downloads, and then installs. Keep your watch and phone close to each
other during the update.
59
For best results, make sure your watch is charged and can connect to your Wi-Fi
network.
60
Troubleshooting
If Versa isn't working properly, see our troubleshooting steps below. Visit
help.fitbit.com for more information.
If your watch doesn't detect a heart-rate signal, first make sure heart-rate tracking is
turned on in the Settings app on your watch. Next, make sure you're wearing your
watch correctly, either by moving it higher or lower on your wrist or by tightening
or loosening the band. Versa should be in contact with your skin. After holding your
arm still and straight for a short time, you should see your heart rate again.
61
For best results, wait for your phone to find the signal before you start your
workout.
1. From the Today tab in the Fitbit app, tap your profile picture > Versa tile.
2. Tap Wi-Fi Settings > Next.
3. Tap the network you want to use > Remove.
4. Tap Add Network and follow the on-screen instructions to reconnect the Wi-
Fi network.
To check if your Wi-Fi network is working correctly, connect another device to your
network; if it connects successfully, try again to connect your watch.
If Versa still won't connect to Wi-Fi, make sure that you're attempting to connect
your watch to a compatible network. For best results, use your home Wi-Fi
network. Versa can't connect to 5GHz Wi-Fi, WPA enterprise, or public networks
that require logins, subscriptions, or profiles. For a list of compatible network types,
see "Connect to Wi-Fi" on page 10.
After you verify the network is compatible, restart your watch and try connecting
to Wi-Fi again. If you see other networks appear in the list of available networks, but
not your preferred network, move your watch closer to your router.
62
If you're trying to download personal music or podcasts, make sure Versa and your
computer are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. For a stronger Wi-Fi
connection, keep your watch close to your router.
Other issues
If you experience any of the following issues, restart your watch:
l Won't sync
l Won't respond to taps, swipes, or button press
l Won't track steps or other data
