What's in the box

Your Versa 3 box includes:

Watch with small band
(color and material varies)

The detachable bands on Versa 3 come in a variety of colors and materials, sold separately.

Charge your watch

A fully-charged Versa 3 has a battery life of 6+ days. Battery life and charge cycles vary with use and other factors; actual results will vary.

To charge Versa 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. Hold the other end of the charging cable near the port on the back of the watch until it attaches magnetically. Make sure the pins on the charging cable align with the port on the back of your watch.

Charge Versa 3 for 12 minutes for 24 hours of battery life. While the watch charges, tap the screen twice or press the button to turn the screen on. The battery level appears for several seconds, then disappears so you can use your watch while it charges. Charging fully takes about 1-2 hours.

Connect to Wi-Fi

During setup, you're prompted to connect Versa 3 to your Wi-Fi network. Versa 3 uses Wi-Fi to more quickly download apps from the Fitbit Gallery and for faster, more reliable OS updates.

Versa 3 can connect to open, WEP, WPA personal, and WPA2 personal Wi-Fi networks. Your watch won't connect to 5GHz, WPA enterprise, or public Wi-Fi networks that require more than a password to connect⁠—for example, logins, subscriptions, or profiles. If you see fields for a username or domain when connecting to the Wi-Fi network on a computer, the network isn't supported.

For best results, connect Versa 3 to your home Wi-Fi network. Make sure you know the network password before connecting.
