THANK YOU!!! I've been losing my mind, thinking my new Fitbit 6 was toast! I just ordered it a couple of months ago when my 5 was stolen. I followed your instructions and it's FINALLY showing signs of life!
That happened to me as well i have the exact watch and band! I called customer support when it happened to me and they were very helpful and walked me through the same steps and yep it worked! Have a great day and if you're as dad, Happy Father's Day! Thanks for your help!
stupid idea . should be on the watch. i have had one for 6 months and had nothing but issues with screen failure. Really poor product and the customer service isn't much better.
Works like magic. My wife left her Japanese version Charge 6 in her bags for months (since we use it for the transit system *SUICA* mainly). I charged it overnight and nothing works still. The method saves the Charge 6. Thx.
hhiiii :) that worked. I've had my Fitbit charge 6 for 3 months and I had no idea that circle on the USB connector was a button. Thank you so much :) You are the best.
The button press x3 gave me the FitBit logo. . . but still no home screen or display. Tried on my wife's charger too??? Am getting frustrated as it is less than 6 months old.
You sir, ARE A LIFE SAVER! Thank you so much for this tip. I was so worried I had already ruined my Christmas gift from my wife. Now I can sleep easy tonight! Liked and Subscribed because of this. :-)
I am happy to see this! Mine stopped working today. I can hardly wait to get home from work and try this method!!!! I HOPE I AM SUCCESSFUL!!!!! I'll come back to let you know tomorrow.
I did this and the fitbit logo appeared but then nothing. When I press the button on the side of my device it still appears dead. What's the next step? Just leave it?
Fixed it. When I opened up the app on my phone it told me the device was 100% charged but that it needed a software/system update. That fixed it. What an awful system. Only had it a week and this isn't a good start.
Thanks for this comment! I had the same problem, and this comment sent me to my phone to check for an update. There was in fact an update to install and now my watch is working again!
I was hoping this would work but unfortunately it hasn’t for me. My Fitbit charge 6 is less than 3 months old. I can hear it and feel it vibrate but all that comes up on the display is colourful dots . 😕
See if letting it go completely dead battery helps. Mine also didn't get fixed with this method at first, but after waiting a week and trying again it turned on
That moment when you are the only one in the comments this is not working for......

My charge 6 did the same thing, I thought it was over and had to buy a new fitness tracker. I had to do this several times before it finally work.

Thank you for this step-by-step! It worked for me. Have had the Fitbit for 3 months but had no idea about the button on the charger.
Thank you! This was driving me crazy!

Same here
@@lydiahughes6564 Same here, I followed the procrdeure and saw the FitBit Logo come on and then it went black again and no display or home screen.

Thanks heaps mate for this. I thought my Daughters Charge 6 was stuffed but this fixed it!
Thank you so much! 5 days without my fitbit! This works perfectly. I had to redo the process about 3x
Just tried this and it worked thank you! What’s the reason this happens?
Not sure :(
Great work! Thank you!! This worked first time 🎉

Thank you, thank you , thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! Solved my same issue and I had no clue about the button either!
Thanks for the video - I was able to get my FitBit to turn back on again 🙌🏻
it works!!! Thanks my friend! send you loveee
Thank you for the help, it was so easy .
I did this and the fitbit logo appeared but then nothing. When I press the button on the side of my device it still appears dead. What's the next step? Just leave it?
Have tried this over a dozen times now and every time the fitbit logo appears, stays on the screen for 2-3 seconds, and then disappears again.
Fixed it. When I opened up the app on my phone it told me the device was 100% charged but that it needed a software/system update. That fixed it. What an awful system. Only had it a week and this isn't a good start.
Aww man. Glad you finally got it fixed 🙌👍
Thanks for this comment! I had the same problem, and this comment sent me to my phone to check for an update. There was in fact an update to install and now my watch is working again!
