Set up Charge 4
For the best experience, use the Fitbit app for iPhones and iPads or Android
phones.
To create a Fitbit account, you're prompted to enter your birthdate, height, weight,
and sex to calculate your stride length and to estimate distance, basal metabolic
rate, and calorie burn. After you set up your account, your first name, last initial, and
profile picture are visible to all other Fitbit users. You have the option to share other
information, but most of the information you provide to create an account is private
by default.
Charge your tracker
A fully-charged Charge 4 has a battery life of up to 7 days. Battery life and charge
cycles vary with use and other factors; actual results will vary.
Note: The Charge 4 charging cable has a gray connector on the base of the clip. The
Charge 3 charger doesn’t work with Charge 4.
To charge Charge 4:
1. Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer, a UL-certified
USB wall charger, or another low-energy charging device.
2. Clip the other end of the charging cable to the port on the back of Charge 4.
The pins on the charging clip must lock securely with the gold contacts on the
7

back of the tracker. Charge 4 vibrates, and a battery icon appears on the
screen.
Charging fully takes about 1-2 hours. While the tracker charges, you can press the
button to check the battery level. A fully-charged tracker shows a solid battery icon
with a smile.
Set up with your phone or tablet
Set up Charge 4 with the Fitbit app. The Fitbit app is compatible with most popular
phones and tablets. For more information, see fitbit.com/devices.
