Setting up your Fitbit Aria

Two methods are available for setting up your Aria scale:

•
recommend trying this method first.
Use our web-based setup tool on either a Wi-Fi enabled computer or a mobile
•
device such as a smartphone. We recommend trying this method if the client
method doesn't work.
