Product Information

as real users, posing a threat to a site’s security, so the site sometimes runs random security checks. It still lacks onboard GPS, so look elsewhere if that’s something you need, but otherwise the Fitbit Charge 3 could make a good choice for your next fitness tracker – though you might want to wait for our full review just to be sure. On the Fitbit Charge 2 you can’t interact with notifications at all, so if you want to do more than read them you’ll have to get your phone out. Once it's ready, press and hold the button on the side of the device until it vibrates and you see the Fitbit logo on the screen.

If you're experiencing technical issues with your Fitbit, you probably don't need to do a full factory reset.Place the Fitbit Charge 2 into its charging cradle, and then connect the USB cable to a power source. If you already have an account, tap your Account icon in the upper-left corner of the app dashboard, then tap Set up a Device under Devices. For example, it’s waterproof to 50 meters, so you can take it swimming, while the Fitbit Charge 2 is just splash-proof.

When turning Flyer on or off, check the battery-level indicator light to view the current battery level. When 1 day or less of battery life remains, a battery icon appears on your device as you tap through your stats. Sometimes it would sit a little off of the tracker, but after a while it worked itself into the right position. The two more premium options for the fashion-conscious among you are lavender/rose gold and black/gunmetal. When Flyer's battery level falls to Low or Very Low, the LED changes to red and an audio notification plays.It’s much lighter too, and it’s made from aluminum, while the Fitbit Charge 2’s body is clad in stainless steel, which could be why the new band is so much lighter.

Keep the charging contacts on the back your device and the pins on the charging cable clean and free of debris. When the tracker is charged to 100%, a green light appears, and then all 5 lights shine for a few seconds before turning off. You can also now do more direct from the device itself, as for example you can set goals without heading to the app. While the Fitbit Charge 3 might look similar to the Fitbit Charge 2 at first glance, look closer and it’s a very different device. Plug the charging cable that came with your Fitbit device into a USB port on your computer, a safety-certified USB wall charger, or other safety-certified, low-energy power source.The Charge 2 isn't waterproof like the Fitbit Flex 2, but it is water-resistant, meaning it can handle a few splashes while you do the washing up, or sweat when you're exercising. Fitbit specializes in accessible and easy to use fitness trackers, rather than more complicated running and fitness technology. It's nice to be able to wear a fitness tracker in the rain without worrying about it being damaged, but we'd have liked to see Fitbit make the Charge 2 fully waterproof. Notifications: You can set up the Fitbit Notifications feature, which mirrors some of your phone's notifications on your Charge 2. Reminders to Move: Enabling this feature will cause your Fitbit to notify you if you haven't reached 250 steps by 10 minutes to the hour.

If you don't have an Android or iOS device, you can still set up your Charge 2 using a Bluetooth-enabled Mac or PC. Both the Fitbit Charge 2 and Fitbit Charge 3 have a rectangular screen and a band that’s as wide as the body, but the design has been refined and tweaked for the Fitbit Charge 3.Design-wise, the Fitbit Charge 2 is much the same as other Fitbit devices, and feels a little like the lovechild of the Charge HR and the Fitbit Surge. This level of customization is welcome, but we did find it a bit of a struggle to connect a band at first. The touchscreen proved a little unresponsive at times during our review, but we never found it particularly frustrating – you just need to give it an extra tap sometimes. Sync Charge 2 from app by selecting Account in top-left > choose Charge 2 > select Sync Now or All Day Sync.
