Setting up your Fitbit Alta HR

For the best experience we recommend using the Fitbit app for iOS, Android, or

Windows 10. If you don’t have a mobile device, you can also use a Bluetooth®-

enabled Windows 10 PC or Mac. For non-Bluetooth options visit help.fitbit.com.

Your Fitbit account asks for information such as height, weight, and gender to make

various calculations such as stride lengths to estimate distance and basal metabolic

rate to estimate calorie burn. Your name and average daily step count are visible to

Fitbit friends by default. You have the option to share your age, height, or weight

with Fitbit friends but the information you provide is private by default.

Setting up your tracker on your mobile device

The free Fitbit app is compatible with more than 200 mobile devices that support

iOS, Android, and Windows 10 operating systems.

To get started:

1.! Make sure the Fitbit app is compatible with your mobile device 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 an iPhone® or iPad®.

•! The Google Play™ Store for Android devices such as the Samsung®

Galaxy® S6 and Motorola Droid Turbo 2.

•! The Microsoft® Windows Store for Windows 10 mobile devices such as

the Lumia™ phone or Surface™ tablet.

3.! Install the app. Note that if you don’t have an account with the store you’ll be

required to create one before you can download the app.

4.! When the app is installed, open it and tap Join Fitbit to be guided through a

series of questions that help you create your Fitbit account, or login to your

existing account.

5.! Continue following the onscreen instructions to connect, or

pair

, your Alta HR

to your mobile device. Pairing makes sure the tracker and mobile device can

communicate with one another (sync data back and forth).

When you’re done pairing, read through the guide about your new tracker and then

explore the Fitbit dashboard.

Setting up your tracker on your Windows 10 PC

If you don’t have a mobile device, you can set up and sync your tracker using a
