Setting up your Fitbit Blaze
To make the most of your Blaze, use the free Fitbit app available for iOS, Android,
and Windows 10 phones and tablets. If you don’t have a compatible phone or tablet,
you can use a computer instead, but keep in mind that a phone or tablet is required
for key features such as notifications, music control, and connected GPS.
Setting up your tracker using a phone or tablet
The Fitbit app is available for more than 200 phones and tablets that support iOS,
Android, and Windows 10 operating systems.
To get started:
1. Make sure the Fitbit app is compatible with your phone or tablet by checking
http://www.fitbit.com/devices.
2. Find the Fitbit app in one of these locations, depending on your device:
The Apple App Store for iOS devices such as iPhones and iPads.
The Google Play Store for Android devices such as the Samsung Galaxy
S5 and Motorola Droid Turbo.
The Microsoft Store for Windows 10 devices such as the Lumia phone or
Surface tablet.
3. Install the app. Note that you’ll need an account with the applicable store
before you can download even a free app such as Fitbit.
4. When the app is installed, open it and tap Join Fitbit to get started. You’ll be
guided through the process of creating a Fitbit account and connecting
(“pairing”) your Blaze to your phone or tablet. Pairing makes sure the tracker
and phone or tablet can communicate with one another (sync their data).
Note that the personal information you’re asked during setup is used to
calculate your basal metabolic rate (BMR), which helps determine your
estimated calorie expenditure. The information is private unless you go into
your Privacy settings and opt to share age, height, or weight with Fitbit
friends.
After setup you’re ready to get moving.
Setting up your tracker on your PC (Windows 10
only)
If you don’t have a phone or tablet, you can set up and sync your tracker on your
Windows 10 PC using the same Fitbit app available for Windows 10 phones and
tablets.
