If you’re looking to get the most out of your Fitbit Versa time display, this article will guide you through each detail of setting and personalizing it. Whether you’re a new user or just need a refresher, you’ll find clear instructions below.
Understanding Your Fitbit Versa Time Display
The Fitbit Versa time display is essentially your interface with the device. Think of it as your command center, where you can view not just the time, but also other relevant information like your step count, heart rate, and notifications. The display is OLED, offering crisp visuals, and is sensitive to touches and swipes.
Depending on your preferences, it can be customized to show a variety of watch faces that include analog and digital clocks, stats-focused faces for fitness tracking, and artistic designs for personal flair.
Setting Up the Time on Your Fitbit Versa
Begin by fully charging your Fitbit Versa to ensure you have sufficient battery life for the setup process. Once charged, wrap it securely around your wrist and power it on by pressing the left button.
Download and install the Fitbit app on your smartphone, create an account or log in, and follow the in-app instructions to pair your device via Bluetooth.

When your device is paired and you’re logged into the app:
Swipe left from your Versa’s home screen to access the Apps menu.
Scroll and tap ‘Settings’, then ‘Clock Faces’ to view available options.
Browse the clock faces and tap on one to preview it.
If it suits your needs, tap ‘Select’ to confirm. Your device will show a loading icon and then display the new clock face.
Note: The Fitbit app must be running in the background on your phone to successfully download and apply new clock faces.
Customizing the Fitbit Versa Time Display
Customization is what makes the Fitbit truly personal. To access this feature:
Press and hold on your current clock face until the ‘Settings’ icon appears.
Tap this icon to reveal various customization options. These might include changing the color theme, adjusting what stats are displayed, and altering the font style.
Select your preferences, which could vary from simply changing the color to setting up shortcuts for quick views of notifications or daily activity metrics.
Confirm your choices with ‘Done’, and give your device a moment to apply the changes.
Remember, available customization options will vary depending on the clock face design.
Syncing the Correct Time
It’s crucial that your Fitbit Versa displays the correct time. If it doesn’t:
Open the Fitbit app and ensure your device is connected.
Tap the ‘Today’ tab, then your profile picture, followed by your device image to enter its settings.
Use ‘Sync Now’ to manually sync your Versa. This should update the time based on your phone’s current time zone and settings.
Syncing also transfers data collected by your Fitbit to the app, allowing you to view your progress on a larger screen.
Adjusting Time for Travel
When traveling, you may cross time zones. To have your Fitbit Versa adjust the time accordingly:
Ensure that the location permissions for the Fitbit app are enabled on your phone for automatic adjustments.
Manually change the time zone in the app settings if automatic updates are off or if you prefer to control this aspect.
To do this, go to ‘App Settings’, find ‘Time Zone’, and disable ‘Set Automatically’ if it’s on. Then, select the time zone you need.
After these adjustments, perform a manual sync to apply the changes to your Fitbit Versa.
Additional Tips for Fitbit Versa Time Display
Keep your Fitbit Versa’s software updated. Updates often include enhancements for time display and overall user experience. These can be done through the Fitbit app where you can check for firmware updates and install them.
In addition, regular syncing ensures your device has the latest information and can display accurate time.
Troubleshooting Common Fitbit Versa Time Display Issues
If your Fitbit Versa time display is still not showing correctly or you encounter other issues, a restart may help. To restart:
Press and hold the back (left) and bottom right buttons for about 10 seconds until the Fitbit logo appears, then release.
Wait as your device restarts, which can resolve many minor glitches without affecting your data.
For more persistent issues, consider reaching out to Fitbit’s customer support or visiting their help center online.
