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.
What's in the box
Your Versa box includes:
Watch with small wristband
(color and material varies)
Versa's detachable wristbands come in a variety of colors and materials, sold
separately.
Charging cradle
Additional large band
(color and material varies)
What's in this manual
We'll explain how to create a Fitbit® account and make sure your watch can
transfer the data it collects to your dashboard. The dashboard is where you'll set
goals, analyze historical data, identify trends, log food and water, keep up with
friends, and much more. As soon as you're done setting up Versa, you're ready to
start moving.
6
Next, we'll explain how to find and use the features that interest you and how to
adjust your preferences. For more information, tips, and troubleshooting, browse
our comprehensive help content at help.fitbit.com.
7
Set up Fitbit Versa
For the best experience, use the Fitbit app for iOS, Android, or Windows 10. If you
don’t have a smartphone or tablet, you can also use a Bluetooth-enabled Windows
10 PC.
Your Fitbit account asks for information such as height, weight, and gender in order
to calculate your stride length and to estimate distance, basal metabolic rate, and
calorie burn. When you set up your account, your name and photos are visible to all
other Fitbit users. You have the option to share other information, but most of the
information you provide is private by default.
Charge Versa
A fully chargedVersa has a battery life of up to 4+ days. Battery life and charge
cycles vary with use and other factors; actual results will vary.
To charge Versa:
1. Plug the charging cradle into the USBport on your computer or a UL-certified
USB wall charger.
2. The charging cradle uses a spring clip to hold Versa in place while charging.
Pinch the spring 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 connection is secure when the percent charged appears on screen.
8
While the watch charges, tap the screen to check the battery level. Tap the screen
twice to use Versa while it charges.
9
Set up with your phone or tablet
The free Fitbit app is compatible with more than 200 devices that support iOS,
Android, and Windows 10 operating systems.
To get started:
1. Find the Fitbit app in one of the locations below, depending on your device. If
you're unsure if the Fitbit app is compatible with your phone or tablet, see
http://www.fitbit.com/devices.
l Apple App Store for iOSdevices such as an iPhone or iPad.
l Google Play Store for Android devices such as the Samsung Galaxy S6
and Motorola Droid Turbo 2.
l Microsoft Store for Windows 10 devices such as the Lumia phone or
Surface tablet.
2. Install the app. If you don't have an account with the store, you must create
one before you can download the app.
3. When the app is installed, open it and tap Join Fitbit to be guided through a
series of questions that help you create your Fitbit account, or log in to your
existing account.
4. Continue following the on-screen instructions to connect, or "pair," Versa to
your phone or tablet. Pairing makes sure the watch and phone or tablet can
communicate with one another (sync data back and forth).
When you're done pairing, read through the guide to learn more about your new
watch and then explore the Fitbit dashboard.
Set up with your Windows 10 PC
If you don't have a smartphone, you can set up and sync Versa using a Bluetoothenabled Windows 10 PC and the Fitbit app.
To get the Fitbit app for your computer:
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.
10
3. If you've never downloaded an app to your computer, you'll be prompted to
create an account with the Microsoft Store.
4. 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.
5. When the app is installed, open it and tap Join Fitbit to be guided through a
series of questions that help you create your Fitbit account, or log in to your
existing account.
6. Continue following the on-screen instructions to connect, or "pair,"Versa to
your computer. Pairing makes sure the watch and computer can communicate
with one another (sync data back and forth).
When you're done pairing, read through the guide to learn more about your new
watch and then explore the Fitbit dashboard.
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 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 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 or work Wi-Fi network. Make sure you
know the network password before connecting.
For more information about how to connect Versa to Wi-Fi, see help.fitbit.com.
Sync data to your Fitbit account
Regularly sync Versa with the Fitbit app to transfer data to your dashboard. The
dashboard is where you'll track your progress, see exercise history, track your sleep
11
patterns, log food and water, identify trends, participate in challenges, and much
more. We recommend syncing at least once a day.
The Fitbit app uses Bluetooth Low Energy technology to sync data with Versa and
to update apps installed on your watch.
Each time you open the Fitbit app, Versa syncs automatically when it's nearby.
Versa also syncs with the app periodically if All-Day Sync is on. To turn on this
feature:
From the Fitbit app dashboard, tap or click the Account icon ( ) >Versa tile
>All-Day Sync.
You can also use the Sync Now option in the app at any time.
Wear Versa
PlaceVersa around your wrist. The side of the watch marked with "fitbit"should be
on the bottom of your wrist. If you need to attach a different size wristband, or if
you purchased an accessory wristband, you'll find instructions in "Change the
wristband" on page14.
Placement for all-day wear vs exercise
When you're not exercising, wear Versa a finger's width below your wrist bone.
12
For optimized heart-rate tracking while exercising, keep these tips in mind:
l Try wearing Versa higher on your wrist during exercise for an improved fit
and more accurate heart-rate reading. Many exercises, such as bike riding or
weight lifting, cause you to bend your wrist frequently, which can interfere
with the heart-rate signal if the watch is lower on your wrist.
l Make sure the watch is in contact with your skin.
l Don't wear your watch too tight; a tight band restricts blood flow, potentially
affecting the heart-rate signal. However, the watch should be slightly tighter
(snug but not constricting)during exercise than during all-day wear.
l With high-intensity interval training or other activities where your wrist is
moving vigorously and non-rhythmically, the movement may limit the
sensor's ability to provide a heart-rate reading. If your watch doesn't show a
heart-rate reading, try relaxing your wrist and staying still briefly (about 10
seconds). You should see a heart-rate reading.
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. By default, the Wrist setting is set to non-dominant. If you wear Versa on
your dominant hand, change the Wrist setting in the Fitbit app.
13
Change the wristband
Versa comes with a small wristband attached and an additional large bottom band
in the box. Boththe top and bottom bands can be swapped with accessory bands,
sold separately. For wristband measurements, see "Wristband size" on page72.
Remove a wristband
To remove the wristband:
1. Turn Versa over and find the quick-release lever—there's one on each end
where the band meets the frame.
2. To release the band, push the quick-release lever inward.
3. Gently pull the band away from the watch to release it.
14
4. Repeat on the other side.
Attach a wristband
To attach a wristband:
1. Slide the pin (the side opposite the quick-release lever)into the notch on the
watch. The band with the clasp attaches to the top of the watch.
2. While pressing the quick-release lever inward, slide the other end of the band
into place.
3. When both ends of the pin are inserted, release the quick-release lever.
