Setting up your Fitbit Flex 2 We recommend using the Fitbit apps for iOS, Android, or Windows 10 to set up your tracker and make the most of the Fitbit experience. If you don’t have a mobile device you can also use a Bluetooth-enabled Windows 10 PC or Mac. While creating a Fitbit account you’ll be asked for personal information such as height, weight, and gender. We use your answers for various calculations, such as stride lengths to estimate distance and basal metabolic rate to estimate calorie burn.
Click the Start button on your PC and open the Windows Store (called Store). 1. Search for “Fitbit app” and when you find it click Free to download the app to your computer. 2. If you’ve never downloaded an app to your computer you’ll be prompted to create an account with the Windows Store. 3. Click Microsoft account to sign in with your existing Microsoft account. If you don’t already have an account with Microsoft, follow the onscreen instructions to create a new account. 4.
Syncing your tracker data to your Fitbit account When you start using your Flex 2 you'll need to make sure it regularly syncs with your Fitbit dashboard. The dashboard is where you’ll track progress, see your exercise history, track your sleep patterns, participate in challenges, and much more. We recommend syncing at least once a day. The Fitbit apps and Fitbit Connect use Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology to sync with your Fitbit tracker.
Getting to know your Fitbit Flex 2 This section tells you how best to wear, navigate, and recharge your tracker. Wearing on your dominant vs non-dominant wrist For greater accuracy, your tracker needs to know which wrist you wear it on. Your non-dominant wrist is the default setting for the tracker. If you wear your tracker on your dominant wrist instead (meaning, the hand you write with), change the default by going to the Account section of the Fitbit app or the Personal Info section in your fitbit.
Activity goal tracking Tap your Flex 2 to see your progress towards your daily activity goal. Each solid white light represents 25% of your goal, meaning for example that if your goal is 10,000 steps and you see three white lights, you’ve gone at least 7500 steps. When you reach your goal Flex 2 vibrates and the lights flash in celebration. Alarms Flex 2 vibrates to wake you when a silent alarm goes off. You’ll see a yellow light and three white lights for 30 seconds or until you dismiss the alarm.
Charging your tracker To charge your tracker: 1. Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer or a UL-certified USB wall charger. 2. Press the tracker into the compartment on the charging cable The pins on the charging cable must align with the corresponding pins on the back of the tracker and lock securely in place. You’ll know the connection is secure when you see a light pattern on the tracker.
Automatic Tracking with Fitbit Flex 2 Flex 2 continuously tracks your steps, distance, calories burned, and active minutes whenever you wear it. Sync your tracker and check your dashboard to see those stats and all the stats described below. Note: Flex 2 resets at midnight to begin a new day. Tracking sleep Wear your Flex 2 to bed to automatically track both your time spent asleep and your sleep quality. To see your sleep information, sync your tracker when you wake up and check your dashboard.
Tracking exercise The SmartTrack™ feature on Flex 2 automatically detects and records exercise details such as the number of laps you swim, the distance you run, and much more. When you sync Flex 2 after a workout you’ll find your results in the exercise history section of your Fitbit dashboard. By default, SmartTrack detects continuous movement at least 15 minutes in length. You can increase or decrease the minimum duration or disable SmartTrack for one or more exercise types.
Using Silent Alarms Flex 2 can gently vibrate to wake or alert you with a silent alarm. On your Fitbit dashboard you can set up to eight alarms to recur every day or on particular days of the week. When the alarm goes off, simply double tap to dismiss. For more information, see help.fitbit.com.
