New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…

Original story (published on August 11, 2021) follows:

Fitbit has a vast portfolio of smartwatches and trackers including the Fitbit Ace, Inspire series, Charge series, and many more.

While Fitbit provides support to all the trackers and smartwatches that are currently in its portfolio, it also supports some of its discontinued products.

This means that the fitness vendor provides software updates including improvements, bugfixes, and even new features to its devices.

However, there are times when Fitbit trackers and smartwatches do not perform the way they are supposed to. The Fitbit community is full of bug reports and issue threads from Fitbit users.

Fitbit tries to resolve most of the issues and problems by promptly assisting affected users through various troubleshooting steps and software updates. However, it is not feasible to get rid of each and every issue when it comes to software.

To recall, there were reports of multiple connectivity issues with Fitbit Luxe, notifications not coming on Fitbit Versa 3, and more.

On the other hand, there were SpO2 data syncing and ‘Notification service is not running’ issues with the Fitbit app which is used to manage the trackers and smartwatches on smartphones.

Moreover, the Fitbit OS 5.2.1 update came out pretty recently for the Fitbit Sense and Versa 3, however, it did more harm than good. More on that here.

All in all, there is always a possibility of bugs and issues affecting gadgets like those from Fitbit even after proper maintenance.

Thus, we will keep tabs on all the issues and problems that are or will be affecting Fitbit products. Apart from that, we will also track software updates for the trackers, smartwatches, and Fitbit app.

So, be sure to keep a weather eye on this tracker as we will constantly update it as and when we get new information.

12:25 pm (IST): Fitbit users are reporting an issue where their Fitbits seem to be sending out emails to its users’ contact lists. The team over at Fitbit says it is looking into preventing or minimizing the impact.
