Charge your watch
A fully-charged Versa has a battery life of 4+ days. Battery life and charge cycles
vary with use and other factors; actual results will vary.
To charge Versa:
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. Pinch the 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 percent
charged appears on screen.
While the watch charges, tap the screen twice to turn the screen on and check the
battery level. Tap again to use Versa.

Set up with your phone
Set up Versa with the Fitbit app for iPhones and iPads or Android phones. The Fitbit
app is compatible with most popular phones. See fitbit.com/devices to check if
your phone is compatible.
To get started:
1. Download the Fitbit app:
lApple App Store for iPhones
lGoogle Play Store for Android phones
2. Install the app, and open it.
lIf you already have a Fitbit account, log in to your account tap the
Today tab your profile picture Set Up a Device.

When you're done with setup, read through the guide to learn more about your new
watch and then explore the Fitbit app.
For more information, see the related help article.
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 apps from the Fitbit Gallery and for faster, more
reliable 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 more than a password to connect⁠—for example, 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 Wi-Fi network. Make sure you know
the network password before connecting.
For more information, see the related help article.
See your data in the Fitbit app
Open the Fitbit app on your phone to see your health metrics, activity and sleep
data, choose a workout or mindfulness session, and more.

Wear Versa
WearVersa around your wrist. If you need to attach a different size band, or if you
purchased another band, see the instructions in "Change the band" on page12.
Placement for all-day wear vs. exercise
When you're not exercising, wear Versa a finger's width above your wrist bone.
In general, it's always important to give your wrist a break on a regular basis by
removing your watch for around an hour after extended wear. We recommend
removing your watch while you shower. Although you can shower while wearing
your watch, not doing so reduces the potential for exposure to soaps, shampoos,
and conditioners, which can cause long-term damage to your watch and may cause
skin irritation.
For optimized heart-rate tracking while exercising:
lDuring a workout, experiment with wearing your watch a bit higher on your
wrist for an improved fit. Many exercises, such as bike riding or weight lifting,
cause you to bend your wrist frequently, which could interfere with the heart-
rate signal if the watch is lower on your wrist.
