A Fitbit does lots of great things, but there’s one simple feature you surely want to work correctly: the clock. Sometimes, however, the time on your Fitbit device might not be correct. Don’t fret: There is a simple fix.
Now, to be clear, you shouldn’t have to do this. For the most part, if you travel to a new time zone and sync your Fitbit to your phone, then it should adjust for you. It should also change with daylight savings time.
However, if your time isn’t correct, fixing the issue is super easy. Here’s how to do it:

Sync to Change the Time

Getting the time correct time may simply be a case of syncing your Fitbit again. To do this, do the following:
  • Ensure your Fitbit is connected to an iOS or Androiddevice.
  • Manually sync your Fitbit by pulling down on the screen on the app’s dashboard.
If your Fitbit is still showing the wrong time, attempt to manually change the time by following the steps in the next section.
