4.0 out of 5 stars Good! My 2nd fitbit. My last one had the touch sensor on the side instead of a button switch. It failed at 2 years, wouldn't respond. This one has the switch, so far 10 months good. The app can be slow to update, download sometimes. Sceen is excellent both visually and responsive to your touch. Sleep tracker is not exactly accurate.... One person found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Check the contents listed in box When I got the watch I didn't check the box for Contents. My wife has the same watch so I used her charging cable. The box says to charge the Fitbit using the enclosed charging cable. I'm going on a trip alone and need my own charging cable. I opened the box again and there is no charging cable. I wish I had checked it thoroughly when I received it. Other than that, the watch is a good buyand I would buy it again 8 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as Fun as Previous Versions Like other reviews have said, since Google has acquired FitBit, I have found that I don’t have as many features. I struggle to get the map after going on my walks, texts don’t really come through, and other things aren’t the same. It’s still useable and comes with Alexa if you’re into that sort of thing. I love the new screen faces, especially the Google art one because it changes each day. 5 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Still getting used to it I could tell my charge 3 was going to die soon. It started getting more lines across the screen like what happened with my other fitbits in the past. This was on sale $30.00 off so I decided to get the versa after comparing the charge and luxe. I do like that it will tell you how many more steps you need to reach your goal and the maps feature. I have had it a few weeks and it already froze. I have come to the conclusion with fitbits not to expect them to last long because that has been my past experiences. I take care of my products and it is sad to have gotten lines through every fitbit I have owned. I probably would not have paid full price for this but bought it because of the sale. Hopefully I will continue to enjoy! 10 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars It does some things really well. Others not so much. This is my second FitBit. The bracelet on my Alta broke, and I finally decided to upgrade. But the software for this fancier version is a bit problematic. My biggest complaint is that while on a two week trip on a ship with little wifi I could NEVER get the watch to tell the right time. There was no way to get it to work. Maddening! I tried refreshing hundreds of times, everything I could think of. So that's a real downside. The Alta was much more straightforward, probably because it wasn't trying to do as much? The sleep tracking works well as long as you have wifi, and the heart rate monitor is useful. They really need to work on their software if they want to compete with Apple. Their battery pairing device is much improved on this version. 6 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Something is "off" I had a previous version of this device that was great for about 2.5 years, but they don't last. This version is a bit odd ... yesterday I went for a 15 minute walk and the app showed I had 71 minutes of "zone" time. Idid not. Speaking of zones, I had an issue with the time being off ... it would just randomly get stuck on a time. When I contacted tech support they told me I should sync my FitBit multiple times a day. I am lucky if I sync it once a day or once a week.This is a watch. I shouldn't have to sync it "multiple times a day" - ridiculous. Anyway, I am just ignoring the zone minutes since I mostly use it as a watch and the time seems to have gotten more stable. It does have me contemplating an Apple watch for the future, though. 5 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Working so far! Dexcom g6 compatible. Here's how I connected it... I bought this because I loose my dexcom receiver once in awhile. Attached to my wrist, I won't loose it! I was leery that it works. I had to switch phones, my Motorola was not supported by dexcom software, see dexcom website for compatibility.1. Make sure you phone will receive dexcom. The phone reads it, and just sends data to the watch. Phone has to be within about 20 feet of you. A. When phone is out of your area..you will loose Bluetooth connection. B. If that happens, all I have had to do is open the fit it app on my phone and it starts syncing again .2. Download fitbit app to your phone. Fitbit is owned by google, now. You will need a gmail account. They are free.-- the fitbit app is very clear, follow the menus and change your phone settings to ensure it works well! The watch will auto connect if everything is set correctly.3. Download the Dexcom app onto your phone. This software is very good, as well. It walks you thru any setting s that need adjustment. You do not need Clarity, just the main Dexcom app!--you are successful when your phone starts reading you cgm! Ps. You need your sensor and transmitter numbers! My transmitter # had to come from my Dexcom receiver! The sensor...dug in the trash! Found it!4. Last step. Go to your fitbit app on your phone. There is a blue icon to select screens, see YouTube videos for visuals! Search for "Glance". It was created for this use. download it for your fit it watch.Now you are ready to wear your watch!!! Done!Ps. There are some good YouTube videos that discuss Versa 4 connecting to a dexcom g6 and g7.Hey, fitbit...get on the ball and create 1 software to download and give a set of screen gui's! Make it easy for people!!Its been a couple weeks. I had to adjust my alert settings. It was buzzing me all night. It DID wake me up to say I was going low. Does a good job with heart rate and sleep patterns is interesting.What does NOT work? The step counter. My first 8 hours, I was asleep. It was going nuts with alert vibrations. The FitBit was VERY proud I had walked 150,000 steps at night, asleep. I must get tons of work out. No wonder I don't sleep well! 😁😁😁😁😂😂 it counted each vibration on all the alerts all night as steps!!! Stupid watch. I have not tried to fix it. Don't care about that function.I really like the convenience for CGM. I still need my regular receiver. But this is a quicker glance and a quieter alert. Its also nice to have weather, and maybe Alexa and Google maps. Have not tried the maps yet. Google voice is not loud enough unless its held on your ear! 20 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Upgrade from Charge 5 My Charge 5 died after two years (happy with the lifespan - no complaint) and pleased to find the Versa 4 discounted by 30% ($60) on Prime Days. Timing was perfect. I'm having difficulty setting up Fitbit Pay (defaults to Google Pay - still working on it and no payments cards are syncing yet). Bright display. Alexa option is nice. Larger face and text is great. Form factor works well and battery life beats Apple Watch. Links well with my Strava app. Good choice. Marked down just because of Fitbit Pay difficulties. 4 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Lightly Disappointed Replaced my Versa 2 because the battery was dying. The new watch and battery are definitely lasting longer, but for some reason this new Versa 4 doesn't report my hourly step goal progress until the last 10 minutes of the hour. And, the vibration warning doesn't seem consistent. So many 'new features ' that don't seem to work. I wish they'd focus more on the basics and less on adding useless features. 5 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars It's an ok entry-level smartwatch I got this to replace my old Fitbit Charge 3. It was not working quite right, so it was time.What I like:- it wasn't overly expensive- the screen is very readable and somewhat customizable- it has Google Pay- theoretically, it has Google MapsWhat I don't like:- It has fewer features than my old Versa (the original one)- battery life could probably be better- connectivity with the app can be challenging. I've had to reconnect a time or two manually since buying this a couple of months ago. That may be a problem with all Fitbits, though, because my Charge was like that sometimes.In all, if you want a larger fitness tracker, this is pretty good. I can track my exercises pretty well with it. The sleep tracker seems ok. If you're really looking for a smartwatch, though, maybe this isn't for you. It is lacking in many features that I'd ideally like, but I don't really feel like getting nickel and dimed from Fitbit to have them. For example, why isn't there music storage on this? Or connectivity to Sirius XM like my old Versa?I had access to other apps and tons of watch faces on my old Versa too, but my selections are much more limited on this one. I don't know if it's a Google thing since they bought out Fitbit or if it's something Fitbit had already decided on before that merge. Or is it that they want people to subscribe to those things or buy their new Sense line? Whatever it is, it's kind of annoying, but whatever. If I want a smartwatch with more "smart" features, I won't be buying another Fitbit of any variety. I'll probably go with an Apple watch or some other brand apart from Fitbit. Garmin has looked appealing too. This will work for now.Theoretically, this has Maps on it, but I haven't gotten the opportunity to test that out. If it works, then awesome. That's a nice feature to have. 42 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Slight complaint The only thing I’m not a fan of, is that I only can see how many steps I need for my hourly goal, when it’s 10 min. to the hour. Otherwise it’s been great. One person found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Okay but nothing to brag about! I have owned 4 Fitbit watches in the past 10 + years. All past watches had very short battery lives, but accurate. This watch now gets 3 plus days per charge. Sleep time, distance walked, run and swim counts are not very accurate and all info vary, not consistent. The connectivity to scale, iPhone and computer is a bit glitchy. The clock and timer are tack on. The last good point is the price on sale was great! If you want a great watch, this is for you. If you want a great fitness device, not that accurate. 4 Stars was a stretch! 13 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional Battery Life The good:Battery Life exceptionalEase of set upCall answering but not makingHeartbeat monitor and step tracking seem reasonableSleep app rating is niceThe bad:Lost voice reply to text when merging the fitbit account with google account. I initially set up a fitbit account on a laptop. When I set the app up on the phone I logged in through the fitbit ID and voice reply to text worked. I logged out of the app and logged back in and it asked me to merge with my google account and that is when voice replies stopped working. Fitbit help says it is aware of this and is working on a solution.The quirky:While the watch battery life is great (15 to 20%) per day it is a drain on the phone. Go into the battery setting on the phone find the fitbit app and change setting to restricted. Much less use. 6 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars So Far So Good I purchased this one after my 6 yr old Altra 2 stopped holding charge and syncing. This is my 2nd fitbit, I love the accurate delivery "this is very important", it's beautiful, lightweight, has a lot of features I'll never use and it looks just like the site description. I've received several compliments. If I was able to follow directions with linking it to my phone & charging anyone can (I'm not the one who cares for a lot of technology). As of today 7/21/23 I've had it for 1 week & 1 day; with that being said today was the first time I recharged it and it was on 29%. It states the battery life 6+ days. Keep in mind I'm not receiving text, phone calls, emails etc. on it either. My Versa 4 is for health purposes: exercises, tracking menstrual "TMI", sleep, heart rate, etc. I'll leave my phone to do the other stuff. 12 people found this helpful

4.0 out of 5 stars Terrible Band I’ve had several Fitbits over the years. This one is great except the band is awful. I bought this in July and every time I wake up to find my watch has come off during the night (and I can’t track my sleep) I think “I need to write a review and let people know about this.” Today is the day, I guess. 3 people found this helpful
