How to Change the Time on a Fitbit

How to Set Up the Correct Time on Fitbit

Usually, the time issue can be fixed by simply syncing your device. If you haven’t done it, the correct time will probably show after you sync your Fitbit. Syncing usually happens automatically at various times – you should enable the all-day sync option to ensure it does.

If your Fitbit device doesn’t show the correct time even after you’ve synced the data, there is no way to do it manually. However, you can make sure the time zone is correct. The steps remain the same for iPhone and Android.

1. Open the Fitbit app.
2. Switch to the Today tab.
3. Tap on your Profile icon.
   
4. Select Fitbit settings and then tap on App Settings.
   
   
5. Toggle off the Automatic Time zone setting.
   
6. Then, select the correct time zone.
7. You can also choose to select our location.

Once done, let the Fitbit app sync with your Fitbit watch. Also, you can choose between the 12-hour and 24-hour time formats from here.

If the Automatic Time Zone setting was already toggled off, then toggle it on and sync it with your phone.

Syncing Your Fitbit Device Manually

If your Fitbit is not automatically syncing to the paired phone, you can do it manually.

Android and iPhone

2. Tap to open the Today tab.
3. Tap on the device icon on the top left.
