Connect to Wi-Fi
During setup, you're prompted to connect Ionic to your Wi-Fi network. Ionic uses
Wi-Fi to more quickly download playlists and apps from the Fitbit App Gallery, and
for faster OS updates.
Ionic 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 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 Ionic to your home or work Wi-Fi network. Make sure you
know the network password before connecting.
For more information, see help.fitbit.com.
See your data in the Fitbit app
Sync Ionic to transfer your data to the Fitbit app, where you can view your activity
and sleep data, log food and water, participate in challenges, and more. For best
results, keep all-day sync turned on, so that Ionic syncs periodically with the app.
If you turn off all-day sync, we recommend syncing at least once a day. Each time
you open the Fitbit app, Ionic syncs automatically when it's nearby. You can also
use the Sync Now option in the app at any time.
Wear Ionic
Place Ionic around your wrist. If you need to attach a different size wristband, or if
you purchased an accessory wristband, see the instructions in
"Change the
wristband" on
page 13.
Placement for all-day wear vs exercise
When you're not exercising, wear Ionic a finger's width above your wrist bone.
