Turn off Fitbit: How to be on the go without the tracker

Turning off the Fitbit device every now and then has its advantages. Although the device no longer records your activities in this situation, battery life can be saved. Depending on the device, you turn off the Fitbit in different ways.

Depending on the model, Fitbit's trackers can be turned off differently.

3. Confirm the process and the respective device turns off.
4. To turn Fitbit Blaze or Fitbit Surge back on, press any button.
5. If, for example, the time is incorrect when you turn on the Fitbit Tracker Blaze, synchronize it.
6. Fitbit Ionic and Fitbit Versa can be turned off by opening "Settings" on the watch. Under "Info", select the sub-item "Turn off". Confirm the process here as well.
