To sync Versa 2 to iPhone, download the Fitbit app from the Apple App Store, install it, and open it. You will need an iPhone or iPad running iOS 11 or later and a Fitbit account to get started.
What you need to sync versa 2 to iPhone
Your iPhone must be running iOS 11 or later. You also need the Fitbit app, which is available for free from the Apple App Store, and a Fitbit account. If you do not already have an account, you can create one inside the app during setup.
Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your iPhone
Before you begin pairing, turn on Bluetooth on your iPhone. Open Settings > Bluetooth and toggle Bluetooth on. You can also enable it from the Control Center. Keep your Versa 2 nearby because it connects over Bluetooth. Ensure the Versa 2 is fully charged before pairing to prevent interruptions.
Install and open the Fitbit app on your iPhone
- Open the App Store on your iPhone.
- Search for "Fitbit" and tap the official Fitbit app.
- Tap Get to download and install the app.
- Open the Fitbit app after installation completes.
- Sign in to your existing Fitbit account or tap Join Fitbit to create a new one.
Set up your Versa 2 in the Fitbit app
Do not attempt to pair your Versa 2 from the iPhone Bluetooth settings alone. The correct pairing method is through the Fitbit app. If you have previously paired the Versa 2 with another device, make sure to unpair it before attempting to pair it with your iPhone.
- In the Fitbit app, go to Account > Set Up a Device.
- Select Versa 2 from the list of devices.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the pairing.
- A four-digit code will appear on your Versa 2 screen during pairing; enter this code in the Fitbit app on your iPhone when prompted.
- Keep the Versa 2 nearby during the entire process.
Complete the syncing process
After pairing, your Versa 2 will sync automatically with the Fitbit app whenever it is nearby and Bluetooth is on. To manually sync, open the Fitbit app and pull down on the screen, or tap the sync icon if available. If syncing fails, Fitbit recommends removing the Bluetooth connection in iPhone Settings > Bluetooth > [device] > Forget This Device, then opening the Fitbit app and setting up the connection again.
