Get started

Get a deeper understanding of your body, your health, and your progress with Fitbit

Charge 3.

Take a moment to review our complete safety information at fitbit.com/safety.

Charge 3 is not intended to provide medical or scientific data.

What's in the box

Your Charge 3 box includes:

Tracker with small band

(color and material vary) Charging cable

Additional large band

(color and material

vary)

The detachable bands on Charge 3 come in a variety of colors and materials, sold

separately.

Charge your tracker

A fully-charged Charge 3 has a battery life of 7 days. Battery life and charge cycles

vary with use and other factors; actual results will vary.

To charge Charge 3:

1. Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer, a UL-certified

USB wall charger, or another low-energy charging device.

2. Clip the other end of the charging cable to the port on the back of Charge 3.

The pins on the charging clip must lock securely with the gold contacts on the

back of the tracker. Charge 3 vibrates, and a battery icon appears on the

screen.

Charging fully takes about 1-2 hours. While the tracker charges, you can press the

buttons to check the battery level. A fully-charged tracker shows a solid battery

icon with a smile.

Set up with your phone

Set up Charge 3 with the Fitbit app for iPhones and iPads or Android phones. The

Fitbit app is compatible with most popular phones. See fitbit.com/devices to check

if your phone is compatible.

To get started:

1. Download the Fitbit app:

lApple App Store for iPhones

lGoogle Play Store for Android phones

2. Install the app, and open it.

lIf you already have a Fitbit account, log in to your account tap the

Today tab your profile picture Set Up a Device.

lIf you don't have a Fitbit account, tap Join Fitbit to be guided through a

series of questions to create a Fitbit account.

3. Continue to follow the on-screen instructions to connect Charge 3 to your

account.

When you're done with setup, read through the guide to learn more about your new

tracker and then explore the Fitbit app.

For more information, see the related help article.

See your data in the Fitbit app

Open the Fitbit app on your phone to see your health metrics, activity and sleep

data, choose a workout or mindfulness session, and more.

Wear Charge 3

WearCharge 3 around your wrist. If you need to attach a different size band, or if

you purchased another band, see the instructions in "Change the band" on page13.

Placement for all-day wear vs. exercise

When you're not exercising, wear Charge 3 a finger's width above your wrist bone.

In general, it's always important to give your wrist a break on a regular basis by

removing your tracker for around an hour after extended wear. We recommend

removing your tracker while you shower. Although you can shower while wearing

your tracker, not doing so reduces the potential for exposure to soaps, shampoos,

and conditioners, which can cause long-term damage to your tracker and may

cause skin irritation.
